Pet Rabbit



 

Some children in our neighborhood likes to drop by our place after school just to see the rabbits and they usually end up buying a pet rabbit from us after badgering their parents endlessly. We make sure that before the rabbits leave our place, we give instructions to the new owners about feeding their pet rabbits the right kind of food so they will stay healthy. We also check first if the new owners have a cage or a hutch ready before we even release the rabbits to the them. Having a pet rabbit to take care of is a good way for the children to learn about taking responsibility. We normally dispose the baby rabbits when they are already 1 1/2 to 2 months old. Some customers prefers to buy the ready-to-breed female rabbit because they want to start breeding right away. The money that we get from the sale of these baby pet rabbits are used to buy their next sack of rabbit pellets. So the rabbits are more or less self-sufficient in this way because they pay for their own keep. We only provide them their vegetables for roughage and water of course. My one and only niece took these pictures of these baby rabbits. I think they're all cute, don't you think so?
