baby albino

Hunniebunnie

New Kit
hi,my girl flower who is pure white mated wiv my boy peachy who is tri colour,grey white and apricot both wiv brown eyes...but flower gave birth to a baby albino bunnie 2wks old beautyfull,ive already got willow hes 2 and a albino bun...he was free to a good home..coz he was albino.All of flowers baby's are beautyfull colors and then there is this albino..im scared that the albino will get left behind?? as i know there arnt many albinos sold in pet shops as people dont view them as pretty as the normal bunnies...ive already got 7 and im thinking i will have to keep the baby albino....as i know the others will be snatched up in a second and i really dont want the baby being left in the pet shop for wks waiting for a new home!!.

Willow scans and takes his time to realize its me...and i have alot of time wiv him so he feels comfy and is part of my bunnie family unit so he never gets lonely??

do u think i shud try re-home little albino..or keep him?..im really worried.

i think you shoould make sure where ever you rehome bunnys to is homechecked and that if you are breeding your buns they are not over bred from theri history is known (to stop illnesses) and that the accomodation at futrure homes is adequet for them. ideally after she ahs finished nursing the kits you could get her speyed and her partner neutered tehn they could be bonded and live together happily in the future adn it would prevernt uterine cancer. the kits can be rehomed after 8weeks and at 12 weeks should be seperated into sexes. dont give any rabbits away free to good homes always put a price on them as sometimes snake owners will take them for free food.. :( also if you got all your buns nueterd they could be a bonded goup too. are you neutering the babies before they go to new homes? hopefully you can give them all a fact sheet about rabbit care..the importance of hay neutering vaccinations large space to run...6x3ft hutch min etc etc... :) hope they all find good homes personally i would see if you can get him a nice home do if not then keep him. x

I may just keep the little albino its very small hopefully a girl ill call her star.

could you not rehome the babies in pairs and put the little albino with a different coloured bun that way it may get a home:D
