Ernestine sat like a statue while watching andlistening to Tony Bennett on the TV New Year's Eve for the better partof an half hour. Show went off, so did Ernestine, to otherparts of the room. No doubt in anyone's mind who witnessed itthat she was enthralled with Mr. B.

Breeders have been known to keep radios playing music and talk shows intheir rabbitries in order to get buns used to noise and humanvoices. Chickens lay eggs better, cows are better milkerswith music in the background.

Hey, it can alter our moods, why not buns'?

I don't know if they like it or not, butmine don't seem to mind it. I have radio playing allthe time out in the barn. I did the same with mysheep years ago. I think it helps them from gettingso scared when they hear other noises.And, I like to hear it!

Yep, one post and gone.... it's a spammer.....

I just didn't click the link but the conversations are good :)

Bo hasn't really shown preference towards music really... although hedoes watch my daughter practice her cheers and cheerdance stuff.
 
Lenci thumps while Jason plays guitar.I don't think she likes music. She does make good percussionthough. Hehe!
 
I play country music in my barn 24/7.The rabbits don't seem to mind it one bit! They don't seem 'as nervous'about the noise at rabbit shows either. They jam to the music in thespring/summer/fall when I'm cleaning cages LOL! I've gotta havesomething to listen to when cleaning cages. :p

Another thing I heard was someone put human hair in panty hose and hungit in their barn. This way the rabbits are used to the smell of humansand noise. ;)

A friend that lives on a farm does this and puts them on her hen house as she says the smell of humans keeps foxes away.

Lissa - Had a laugh at Lenci being good at percussion :D - Jan

I've been playingwww.ancientfaithradio.comand I just noticed that Peanut is sleeping against the edge of the penthat is closest to the speakers. It's definitely not a spot she wouldnormally sleep in - I wonder if she likes the music :) (it's chanting,very soothing)

Anyone else have musically inclined bunnies? :bunnydance:

The bunnies were very uptight right afterreturning from their spay/neuter. I put on some classical music andthey immediately calmed down. I also played alot of Christmas musicover the holidays. They didn't seem to mind that.
 
Yep definetly

But it is also a very good question! Thankz SheepskinTearaway:D

I think music carms all animals down in a whole. At thekennels where I use to volunteer they had music playing 24/7.It certainly did the job and it didnt make the dogs bark as much asthey would without.

Ofcourse they wouldnt enjoy rock music as much :disgust:



 
I play music for my African grey parrot, whobeieve it or not, spends alot of time with the bunnies. They are usedto him on the windowsill above them and are not afraid atall. He,however, likes anything with a really good beat and alot of raw emotionlike rock or soul music. I really think the bunnies do better withclassical or something softer so at times he has to put up with theirtastes. I think the sound must provide some stimulation for them whenthey are alone .
