New Kit
Have been reading the forums for a couple of weeks and thought it was about time I introduced myself.
Have been considering getting a couple of rabbits for a few months. I am completely animal crackers and would have a zoo if I had my way by now, but OH tries his best to be the 'sensible' one and rein me in!
My real passion is rare breed poultry and I have 10 girls at the moment - a mix of 4 partridge brahmas (3 raised from eggs this summer - see avatar pic!), 2 buff orpingtons, 2 australorps, 1 cream legbar and one lavendar pekin which all free range about my garden. Also have 2 rescue cats Inca and Maya, and have kept rats in the past.
I'm starting as a complete novice, but always research like mad before I get my animals, hence not just jumping straight in. I'm also determined that my bunnies will be rescues.
I have been looking at the rabbits in need forum, and wondered how folks here feel about a newbie taking in one of the rehoming cases. Do those running rescues always look for experienced homes?
Nice to meet you all and look forward to learning lots and contributing a bit.
