Nail cutting!

Hello,

We are currently looking after a rabiit called Bramble. Getting on okay with most things, but I was concerned that his toe nails might need triming! He's not really used to being handled so I figure this might be kind of tricky. Would it be better to get a vet to do it? How long should they be?

Any help gratefully recieved.

if your not confident take him to the vet and the vet will show you how to do it, you need to be confident sometime with two people its easier
if the claws are white its easier to see the vein in the claw you trim just before that, an accidental nick hurts and does produce a bit of blood
i have a white bun with black claws its not easy
