Hello all!
My name is Jennie, Im 26 years old and I am a brand new bunny owner. I am looking for good friends, learning new things and listening to all the advice I can.
I adopted my black lion head buck from an absolutely wonderful rabbitry close to me 3/2/13. The moment I saw him I was in love. I had thought about getting a bunny for a while but after recently losing a most beloved pet rooster, I felt it might just be the time and he has already made me feel so much more at ease. He is 10 weeks old and came to me with the name Jean Claude which is pretty cool and hard to top. Other names I have in mind are Mr. Darcy & Edward Fairfax Rochester lol. I figured id give it some time to decide.
He is currently housed in a modified single unit ferret nation that extends into a large enclosed play pen. I'll post photos of his home soon. Other than being a slight skiddish when first picked put he quickly calms down and very much enjoys just sitting/laying with me.
I dont want to stress him out too much and I have been trying to see if this is normal or if he is just frightened? He will literally just plop down and lay with me! He is super calm about it, if he hears a noise he will perk up and take note, maybe get up and see what it is and then come back and lay down with me again. He really is just a sweetie pie. I want to give him all I can.
Here are photos his breeder took that stole my heart.
