Do you have any rabbit rescue or HRS chapters inyour area that could help you find a good adoptive home? Ihighly advise against running a newspaper ad -- you'll draw some ratherstrange inquiries.

i shouldnt say anything because i cant really help...... but....

ill ask around because thats where i go to school. maybe someone that lives near campus wants a rabbit?

I would LOVE to take them.. but sadly my dad wants only one bun ...

All I can say is keep searching farther than you did before. Tryputting an add up say in a vet's office. Many people including myselflook at those. You can also make sure with these that your buns go togreat homes.

sounds like you might need to take them to thepetstore, you always run the risk of bunnys not having a good home whenyou breed, thats why its not a good idea most of the time,but since they are cute and born and ready to go the pet store wouldprobally be your best bet. go into to the pet store and look at theliving conditions of the animals first tho some pet shops are justterrible

Panacrent...the babies are three weeks old. Sothey will be ready to go probaly in September. Thank you very much forlooking for me. Everytime I look at their little faces i get so upsetknowing that they have to go. But i have to find a good home for them.

Thanks everyone for the advice.

There are two House Rabbit Society chapters in Ohio:

http://columbusrabbit.org/index.htm

I highly advise against giving them to a pet store. Iwork at a shelter, I know the horror stories first hand. Pet storeswill not ask what sort of home the rabbits are going to, and whathappens to the bunny after it leaves the store, they can't be botheredwith it. Broken legs. Broken backs. Overgrown teeth and nails.Untreated illnesses. Neglect. It all happens, all too often. Please tryto contact the HRS chapter nearest you and let them find great homesfor your babies.

I would put an ad at the grocery store then whenpeople come to see the bunnies you can screen them yourself.some storeshave boards for ads.bluebird
