K8's Rabbits
New Kit
Two things!! I got my baby bunnies on Wednesday!!! slight issue... not sure what sex they are and dubious about going to the vet...
The parents of my rabbits were taken to the vets at 4 months old and the vet told my friend that they were both girls! a few weeks later..ummm...babies! I have bought another hutch so i can seperate them nearer the time of sexual maturity, so i can have the boy neutured if one of each sex as i don't want babies.. however i am worried that if they are both boys/girls they may fight after reintroduced after a period of time..?? thoughts??? I feel sad as i haven't named them as i don't know what they are?!? at the moment they are Bunny 1 and bunny 2 :lol:
Also my father-in-law (he's never had a rabbit but got me worried) told me that putting a cover over the front of the hutch lead to breathing difficulties?? I've done this before with rabbits i used to have and nothing was wrong with them... but as these babies are only 6 weeks (mother stopped feeding them) i want to ensure they are fighting fit and don't get cold. The cover is a soft tarpulin, just over it at night.
