Another bunny ;)
Oh no, not now [emoji38]

Just when I look at a breed I also look at if they're actually available etc whereas I can only see continental bunnies which are apparently descendants of the flemish giant, but not as big. Basically I like researching breeds and the history [emoji38]

But I will admit one day I wouldn't mind having one, I am definitely a big bun person, rather than a small [emoji38]

Despite being a Nethie yourself?
(sorry, couldn't resist :lol:)
 
Ah I haven't see any in white! She's gorgeous!

Was it tricky having such a large bunny?

I'm guessing they'd need extra room compared to a average sized bun [emoji38]

Yes, if indoors then as free range HB or as near to that as possible. If outdoors then a super sized dog kennel or a shed + aviary set up. IMO no Giant breed Rabbits should ever be kept in a hutch.

Yea I mean I doubt anyone would make a hutch they'd be able to use tbh.. [emoji38]

Imagine a bonded pair.. Getting them both to the vets would be such a task [emoji38] maybe you'd get them a smaller friend.. Idek also you'd have to probably buy a dog carrier [emoji38]

When Libby was Rescued she was being housed under a decrepit hutch with her 10 siblings :cry: Hence she arrived here in this state

My bunnies always take the bus to the vets, I'd never manage it with two giants!

Reminds me of when I was like 14, my German shepherd hurt her paw, and I didn't know what to do, so I rang my mum and said I wanted to go to the vet, she was at work but said get them to call me for payment after, so I took my dog on the bus but she couldn't really walk so I was trying to carry her (not easy), anyway I was sat on the bus with a huge German shepherd on my lap, and everyone was like walking past me like I was holding a lion [emoji38] poor baby was whimpering a bit too, because really she was a big baby. I must have looked so ridiculous though [emoji38] thankfully my mum had finished so picked us up afterwards [emoji38]

Just imagining trying to get down the busy bus with a huge carrier [emoji38] my buns together are heavy enough [emoji38]
