New bunnies
Young Bun
Hi there everyone, i’m basically posting this in the hope someone can reassure me that I’m not a useless fool which is how I feel right now.
We have just got our first bunnies two weeks ago, baby mini lops. They are indoor rabbits & so are pretty used to us, they’ll eat from our hands / happy coming up & sniffing us etc but HATE HATE HATE being picked up. They don’t even really like being stroked!!
They have their vaccinations on Tues & i’m so worried about picking them up. The breeder was really good at handling & told us I should be picking them up every day but they just run away & scrabble out of my hands & hate it so much I don’t do it unless I have to clean them out.
Is it just patience I need (& lots of treats) or have I already messed up? Feeling useless right now
