Ello 
I just joined and I look forward to meeting some new people and their bunny friends! On February 3rd I brought home 2 Flemish Giant babies. They are only 7 weeks old now. They are both male, both a brownish color, sort of a wild rabbit look to their color. I joined here to learn more about rabbits. I have been reading a lot about proper care, but figured sometimes it is best to talk to people rather then reading old information that has been sitting on a webpage since 2004, there is always new approaches to raising animals. When I was a kid my sister and I had rabbits growing up, but my dad would only allow them to stay outside or in the basement, so this is a bit of a new experience having them in my bedroom.
I've been wanting a Flemish Giant for a while now, contacted a few breeders that were over 2 hours away and I planned on waiting till next month when I get my tax return, but I stopped in a pet store and was so surprised when I saw these 2 boys that I knew I wanted them So for now their home is an XL dog crate which was the best I could do on short term notice. The pet store wanted $90 for a cage that would probably make a good home for 1 guinea pig. Next month I'm considering buying a dog kennel and putting it in my bedroom. It is a 4' x 8' x 6' kennel and I want to build shelves and ramps in it. But I'll get more into this somewhere else in the forums
In addition to my bunny boys I have 3 dogs and 4 cats, and a Conure. I live in NC, near the Virginia line. I'm sort of near the mountains, so it makes a nice trip for me and the dogs come the spring and fall.
Well anyway, hope to meet everyone soon And incase you haven't noticed, I have a bad habit of throwing smilies at the end of about 1/4 sentences without even thinking about it :biggrin:
