From asking in what breed is my rabbit, they are a new zealand white cross with a rex

Here's some pics of my babies, 2 half weeks old. Little runty Mumma giving kisses Note the small size of Runty, do you think it is possible that it is a dwarf as it is so TINY and is so light compared to all the other rabbits, the others nearly look big enough to be the mothers!!!

Thankyou, What is wrong with lucerne??? I checked the stockist and there are none in m y area. I will try the other brand though, thanks

Should they be offered water yet??

I know i have discussed a lot about what bunnies should eat after weaning. I live in Australia and have not found in my local area anywhere that stocks the good quality pellets, I found some protein enriched stuff at the pet shop and when I asked what the ingredients were, they had no idea and...

Is it ok to have cross bred them?? The babies are very cute, and not planned, a big surprise to me.

This is the mother This is the father

These are our new bunnies, not sure what breed they are, but still super cute. This is most of the 9, all eyes open now, 12 days old This is little runty in the middle of the lot Little Runty Biggest and Runty Is that too many pics/??? Sorry. What would make Runty so small, is...

Here are my new updated pics of Bugsy and Tinkerbell. This is Tinkerbell, once Bugsy, she is very sift and her fur is probably about 2cm thick, she is lovely and shiny. This is Bugsy, once, Tinkerbell, and he is not so soft, he is not rough, but has more coarse fur, feels a bit like...

I am sorry if I offended by mixing up my post and getting away from weaning, but I thought it was all related as I didn't know what to feed once weaned. I am only new here and obviously do not know the rules,

I don't know what my bunnies are, my father got them froma breeder at the market, but she obviously didn't know what she even bred, I thought my Dad said they were rex, but they don't look like the typical rex, at first we were told the boy was a girl and the girl was a boy, until we found out...

Thank you, I am just getting a bit confused as to what is right for them, especially regarding the rabbit mix, and the pet shop feeds it to all their bunnies and sell it and that is all my 2 ever have had, and straw and vegies, and a little fruit

So, I am getting a better hutch for the mother and soon the father, as my father caught me by surprise when he brought them home for my daughter, and I had an old duck cage I wired up and I am not happy with it for the long term. The new hutch I am getting has an open enclosure on the bottom...

If switching over to pellets, which pellets should I use as I read the babies should alfalfa pellets but that is not suitable for the older rabbits?? Whyy is the mix not healthy, I get it made up from the pet shop or proudce store?? It has lucerne hay, sunflower seeds, pellets, bits of corn...

I have been reading about weaning enteritis, how can I best avoid this in the babies. How do you have separate food dishes? How do you know the babies won't eat from the mothers mix if they are just getting pellets?? Do you feed her the same pellets until they are separated?

I am new to all this, and I know it is very early yet, but wanting to be prepared. My rabbit had a litter of 9, as mentioned previously, all doing wonderfully, although 1 is clearly a little runt, but so cute and tiny. 1. When do they start getting weaned and does the mother do it naturally, or...

Since moving all the bunnies together, the little ones seem to be putting on more weight, there are definateyt 3 that are much bigger, maybe they are boys. I am not really sure what sort of rabbits they are, my Dad got them from a market for my daughter from a rabbit lady, she said they were...

I put all the bunnies together, but is she capable of feeding them all together seeing as though there is 9?? Will this little 1 slowly die, it has lasted 6 days now?? Can I not hand feed it or will it just die like fading kitten syndrome in cats???

My rabbit had a litter of 9 babies 5 days ago. People told me they do not move their young, but she made 3 separate nests on opposite sides of the cage and put 3 babies in each. I put them into 2 separate boxes to contain them and make sure they were safe and warm, but I have noticed today...
