I figured I would come back here after asking all sorts of Belgian Hare questions... I ended up finding a breeder, asked all sorts of questions, and ended up having a little boy transported up here... he is AMAZING.
Named him Maximilian. He is soooo active, into absolutely everything, super curious, complete trouble maker - I'd have it no other way. But besides this he's also really sweet and will stand up at your feet and beg to be picked up and cuddled. After reading about how sensitive to noise BHs can be and how skittish and shocky they could be I was a bit concerned he'd be super fragile but nope - he's far more curious than skittish. He's been a wonderful addition to the household. I was told by the breeder he was a runt who had to be separated from his siblings because they were keeping him away from the food. The transporter told me he was on the thin side and Belgian Hares are "notoriously hard to get weight on." This just has not been so.... he's gained weight and grown in the few days I've had him and is building up muscles fast.
I took a few photos... was a bit difficult as every snap was more or less a blur of brown fur.. he refuses to sit still so I put him in a box just to slow him down enough to take these... :hbunnysmell: In any event he's been very different than the buns I have had in the past -WAY more active. I have yet to catch him sleeping - he must sleep like a fish, with his eyes open. Very happy with our new house bunny!
