Hello, I just got a baby bunny and want to find out what breed it is. Can anyone tell me how I can post pictures here? Thanks.

This page should help you out.

A lot of people on the forum use Photobucket and I like to use ImageShack. They both work fairly well, I prefer ImageShack because it re-sizes them automatically (if you click the re-size option. Good luck! I want to see your little bunny!

Thanks Lovr of Wabbis and Kherrman 3 for the links. I'll have to try the Imageshack one day. I'm glad photobucket will work here. Since I already have an account there, I've just downloaded three pictures of my new baby. I was told Thumper was 8 weeks old. This means he was born around Christmas. So, if any of you knows his breed, I'd like to know learn more about him. He really looks like the Thumper in Bambi and he's a very good boy. He seems to have very sharp nails though. Every time I try to carry him up, I'll get a liittle scratch from him and some of is scratches break the skin. Any idea if I should give him a nail clip? Can I use the regular nail clippers? Thanks for your help and advice.

OMG your baby is so cute.

The color and type are similar to a baby Holland Lop with erect ears.

Thanks Bo B Bunny, I got it figured out.

Lvr of Wabbit, thanks for the compliment. My dd gets so excited that she wants to squeeze him all the time. I have to keep her in control so he won't get hurt.

Thanks Pam for the info, I'll go and read more about him now.

This forum is awesome - thanks again for all the help to this newbie.

Thumper is thumping away ... (by the way he's got very beautiful deep blue eyes).

For nail clippers I like this one

OMG! CUTENESS! That is an adorable little poof ball! :rofl:

As far as nail trimmers go, I use the kind for dogs. I also use the kind meant for slightly large(r) types of pet birds. They work fairly well!

OMG That is an adorable baby!

Very cute baby!


As for nail clipping, his nails will be sharp since he's young, but you may find that there's nothing to clip without hitting the quick (The vein in the toenail).
I've gone to cut bunnies toenails because they were sharp, and I couldn't cut them without getting the quick and causing them to bleed, so I just wouldn't cut them.

You may be able to cut the very very tip though.

oh my goodness, he's soooo cute! i'd love to steal him away!
@Pam-do you think he might have a bit of nethie in him? his ears look a bit short, but it may just be me .
