So it's been three crazy years since I've posted on here.
And I thought I'd give you guys an update on Apathy.
As I mentioned before, he's now kept at the barn I ride at, with the chickens in the chicken coop. I felt guilty for never being home anymore, and him being locked up in a cage all day. So he's there now. With his girlfriend (Spotsy) and five babies. (3 a couple weeks old, 2 newborn.)

Here's some pictures!

Apathy chilling.

The three older babies.

The black newborn.

Mom (Spotsy) and the white baby. (Un-named.)

Apathy (Theo) and Spotsy. [Mom and dad.]

The three again.

The two youngest.

White newborn.

White newborn again.

Recent picture, now walking around, eyes open!

Again. =D

Apathy. What an apt name for the situation this rabbit has found herself in.

Hi your bunnies are gorgeous

Do you keep the male and female together all the time? It's not good for them to have litters so close together, so the best thing would be to get Apathy neutered.

Are wire bottom cages common in Canada? Do you not find it hurts their feet? They aren't really used in the UK.

:roll: I think Apathy is a he.

Good idea getting the buns bigger accomodations - especially if they have just become a family!

I think the black ones look sweet - well they all do actually!

Heh. I know all about that. We have two dalmatian rexes at school who always end up having one black baby each litter:lol: (the rest dalmatians)
So cute

Yeah, they're separated.
The second batch wasn't planned.. She must've gotten out of her cage, and got a little 'busy' with Apathy.. We were surprised when we found babies!
They're separated though, and the other babies in the wire cage.. Well.. I don't own any of them.. And it's all my riding coaches doing.. But we always cover the bottom with hay/saw-dust. They just seem to eat it all.

:lol: but it's no laughing matter I guess

Boards on the mesh would make it better for their feet but worser for the person shovelling poopy.

Rabbits can mate through cage mesh :shock: Rabbits also get pregnant again as soon as they give birth, if someone hasn't thought to remove Apathy/daddy bun.

Babies need to be split into boy/girls at 12 weeks old, unless you want a serious problem - I think 2 unwanted litters is serious enough really :shock:
