I got a young male lionhead from a local pet store here and I have a vague idea of how old he is but I was wondering if there are ways to get a more accurate guess on his age. I haven't been able to weigh him because all we have is an old bathroom scale that isn't very accurate. His teeth look to be in perfect condition. Not sure if pictures would help but here are a couple of him (the second photo is the first day we brought him home, before I had brushed out his mane):

Unless it's an immature rabbit, I don't think there's a definitive way to know. My rabbit's age is unknown because she was a stray the first time she was brought in to the shelter. Both vets I have taken her to said they aren't able to know an exact age. Based on when she was brought in and the length of time she was in her previous home, I estimated she's 3 and the vet seemed to agree with that approximation.
