My baby bunnies

Hi everyone, my bunny has just had a litter of seven babies, I was given a male rabbit and he must have caught her the day before I got him nuetered (naught boy lol) anyway the outcome is these beautiful 7 little bunnies, I just had to show them off. Ruth.xx

And what cute little babie they are!

awwww.... how cute!!!!!

Interestingly, he could have gotten her pregnant AFTER he was neutered....sometimes the sperm stays in the tubes for a month or so after neutering. Funny, anyway .

Be sure to have the mama bunny spayed when the babies are big enough! Unspayed females have about an 85% chance of getting a reproductive cancer before age 5.

What pretty little buns! What breeds are the parents?

I love baby bunnies

They're adorable!!! Are they holland lops by chance?? I used to have a gorgeous little blue holland lop named Sophie (She passed away in June). The kits are adorable!

I second the spaying of momma rabbit. Reproductive cancers are incredably high in rabbits. Make sure the vet you use specializes in exotics though (they will know the proper anestesia to use on a rabbit. ) (I spent a while as a vetrinarian technician. If you need help on any of the medical care or have any questions, I'm only a pm away!) Good luck with your lovely new bunnies!

Are you planning to keep them or do u have homes for them? I wish you were closer, I'd have to sneak out a silver/blue one

Hi, dad is a lion head and mum is a rex !! I will be getting mum spayed, I think she has been through enough poor girl but she is a fab mum. I have a home for one of them, got to be a boy and the rest I want to go to people that I know so I know they will be well looked after, I don't want anymore I have 5 bunnies already, they are so cute though it will be hard giving them up, will have to make most of the 8 weeks I have with them.xx

I was gonna ask if they were Rex rabbits. I notice there is a clear difference in coat texture/type in Rex rabbits that is not in normal rabbits. I usually can tell right away even in pictures

I love Rex rabbits. Your kits are adorable!

What sweet babies! Bunnies are some of my favourite people.

I have been told that they could turn out to be lion heads even though their coats are so smooth at themoment, that was by the vet, will just wait and see, they grow so quick will keep posting updated pics on here.x

I bet they're going to be adorable when those coats really start to develop! That's wonderful you're planning to have momma fixed! / If you adopt out the kits maybe you can work out a deal with your vet and see if he/she will give you a discount on having them fixed before they go to their new homes (or see if they'll give new owners a discount!)

I wish I was closer, I'd have to kidnap one! They're darling

Oh what cuties!! I want to get another bunny so bad, but I'm worried about my dogs. Thanks for sharing!

Aww bless, the daddy rabbit is guarding them, he has never left the nest box alone, I have been watching him for 3 hours and he just is sitting outside the box, bless him, well thats the only babies he is going to produce and its lovely to see a "hands on dad".x

They're some of cutest kittens I've seen, Would love to see more when they grow up!

Sooo... baby bunnies are called kittens????? Cooll......

A quick update, bunnies are 5 days old today, I sneaked them out the nest box and had a quick peek at them, I took some pics, they aren't that fantastic as they never stop moving but they have doubled in size and changed colour and I think they are definetely going to look like lion heads, you can see in one ofthe pics that the kit definetely has the start of a mohican they are too gorgeous, I have found homes for all of them I want to keep them but I just can't it wouldn't be fair to my other bunnies, its going to be a nightmare in a few weeks when they are all running around I will have 12 rabbits , all good fun though.x

Oh, so cute! Sometimes we have wild baby bunnies at the prison where I work. I love them!
