Hello, I apologize if I posted this in the wrong place, but I saw a craigslist ad this afternoon about a person selling 5 rabbits that are ONLY three weeks old, and I was so horrified that I sent her an email pleading that she please wait a couple of more weeks before selling the bunnies. They look very small.
I know for a fact that is too young, because they need their Mom until at least four - five weeks. To be safe I personally prefer six to eight weeks. One time when I was a rabbit breeder as a teen, my Dad took one of my 5 week old bunnies and gave them to a friend's daughter... then the rabbit passed shortly after and that infuriates me 13 years later.
Anyway, is this legal or acceptable? Would I be wrong if I called an animal welfare place or somewhere, if the ad is still up tomorrow? Just very worried.
