My names JoAnn. I live in Idaho and It's nice to have found such a wonderful site with so much info!

So I currently have no rabbits, but I have three coming to me June 22nd. My husband have been talking about getting rabbits for quite a while now (about a year) and I gave in about a month ago. My conditions were that we had to have everything ready for them before they got here.

Now that were ready for them I'm starting to get really excited. I keep finding all these neat new ideas on here!

Oh! So the bunnies that I am getting are (suppose to be) Holland lops. They are (suppose to be) three boys which are litter mates. I have read enough on here about he's turning to she's I'm not going to hold my breath until they see the vet. :)

Nice to meet all of you by the way!
 
Welcome. They sure are cute. I should warn you, though, that no matter what their gender, once they hit puberty they may need to be separated until they are fixed. Then it's possible that their bonds may not be able to be reestablished. I don't mean to be a wet blanket, but you should be prepared for this.
 
No worries! They will be fixed as soon as they can be, as I have seen what little bunnies can do to each other once the hormones kick in.

My 2 sisters and I had bunnies as children. 2 were bonded, the other one was fine out in the yard with them, but she became very territorial when they were near her cage.

Oh and they each have their own hutch/run outside as well as an indoor one each when they do hit that point... :) I "believe" I am well prepared... But ya never know. :)
 
Welcome!

Your rabbits are adorable! Can't wait to hear more about them :)

And by the way, my husband has family in Couer d'Alene and we just visited in sept. It is SO beautiful there!
 
Just covering for Wabbitdad12 while he is busy :) This is what he usually writes!

Looking forward to more photos of the new additions :)

Welcome!

I would like to welcome you to Rabbits Online, my name is Dave and I am a moderator on the forum. So if I can be of any help please let me know. This is a terrific website for rabbits and their slaves, not only is it very active but also friendly. I am so glad you’re here and I know you will enjoy it.

Many bunnies’ recommend their slaves to this site so we may learn of others methods to keeping our furry masters happy.

If you everhave a sick bunny, please post in The Infirmary and include your rabbit's age, breed and health history as well diet and output details leading up to the problem.

Here are somelinks I thought you might find interesting:

*For reference the Library section

*To brag or tell everyone about the antics of your bunny or just to talk about your day here is where to start a Bunny Blog, you can also look back at it later and remember when you had a life before your bunny.

*Now all the bunny’s like talk to each other when we mere slaves aren’t around in the Bunny Chat is the spot to be.

*The House Rabbit Society has a lot of good information on what veggies are safe for bunny’s, etc.

*Here is a link to learn what your furry master is trying to say to you How to Understand Your Bunny's Language

*Rabbits Online also has regional forums , this a good way to find a vet in your area that has experience with rabbits and to find out from other nearby of good sources of rabbit supplies.

The Let Your Hare Down section is for anything non-bunny related.

Here is a link tothat will help you and your bunny to connect, How to Bond with Your Bunny.

Now every forum has rules and ours can be found with this link Rabbits Online Forum Rules. This gives guidelines on what is acceptable, what is not and how we hope everyone will treat each other.

Everyone on this forum loves to see pictures of each other’s bunnies. So if you would like to post a picture this link will help you do that, Upload Photo's to Photo Gallery. Then in the post, you click on the "G" in the tool bar to insert your photo. Many people also use Photobucket. You just copy the img file and paste it into the post.

Don’t hesitate to ask questions and I am glad you have joined Rabbits Online; I look forward to seeing you around!

Thank you everyone! It's nice to meet all of you. Our bunnies have made their way home today. I am at work and want to go home so badly to see them it's KILLING me! :)

So on a side note. The little bunny in the top picture (the black one) had a tooth issue (malocclusion I think she said). The family we got them from said they didn't feel comfortable selling him because of the problem so instead we picked out a different little boy which reminds me of a calico cat (in coloring) he is just beautiful!

They are all playing in a big box of newspaper shredding to their little hearts content right now. (As I sit here at work... grrrr)
 
Congratulations on your new bun family! Way to jump right in with 3. Go big or go home, right?!
