New bunny

Fluffy

She is cute and Fluffy!
I would call her Fluffy..

I have 4 rabbits and have 3 different types, all of them like different things to eat.. my first two rabbits I give apples, tomatoes, lettuce, kale, greens, spinach,
spring mix, etc.

The two new ones eat nothing like the original two I have and want to eat Hay all the time along with dried food and banana for treats, etc..

try out foods to see what she likes... see what her taste are every bunny is not the same. One of mine likes grapes and the others do not. one of mine likes strawberries and the others do not.

So what have you decided on the name? And give her room and space to play every day. She needs more room than the crate and please take her crate out of that box. She might be scared. If you have no space let her run around in your bathroom as a start. Just make certain no cleaners or anything that could hurt her is on the floor and let her run around.

Good luck!
Vanessa

Hello
Long were we gone.He is male-for sure!
We are good but we have some problems. I have proble with cage..he all time make trash all around the cage..

And because i make this around the cage:

So what are you think?
I think he's bored..so what i to do?I want that he will be happy..

Actually you don't have a problem with the cage... it's the bunny who has the problem with the cage.. my bunnies are like that also when they are bored or do not have enough space. Remember, anything a rabbit can pick up with the mouth is fair game for them to throw around the cage... including water
which I do not see in his crate.

I do not use the water
bottle because mine have no idea how to drink from it and drink
from bowls. I have 2 rabbits that are organized and two that trash
their cages like drunks in a college frat house. That is just how their
personalities are.. but if you give them room and space that will
cut down on them messing up the cage and also if you let them out
for at least 4-6 hours a day, then the boredom is gone and they will use the
cage to sleep at night.

What is your routine with the bunny? Bunnies are creatures of habit.
If you change their routine they will go nuts..

I would invest in a larger cage. I can't stand seeing buns in cages like that. Med-lg dog kennels work great. And you can add levels to them.

Also I forgot to mention, rabbits are social animals. Keeping him/her/bun bun in that box is isolating them from you and bonding with you. If you want to have a good relationship with your bunny you have to socialize with it and keep it with you so you guys have a bond with each other. Start by removing that box. messes come and go and I spend hours cleaning up after mine but I love them so I don't mind. But then again I'm an old fart in my late 40's also.... sit and play with your bunny for a few hours at the same space so they know what the routine is with you and feel comfortable. Buy some toys and a cardboard playhouse for them to run in and out of... use a cat house if you have to... I bought one for mine and have not put it together yet, but they love things like that...

Thanks,so 1st to remove the box?
But room is always open..so how can he be all time out off cage?
If i remowe the box..he will make trash..
so what to do?

 

[lovelops]

Ok if out of box will make trash? you mean pooh? use the bathroom? Be specific...

Mine will go around and hop and they will always leave a little pooh behind them from running around and playing.

You can start off with either in the bathroom or kitchen, small rooms, or your bedroom if that is small. I keep Lady in the kitchen because I can keep an eye on her and she can't get in with the dogs and get hurt.
Do you live in an efficiency? Is that what you are struggling with? Get an X pen and you can keep your bunny in certain areas... I think I have some pictures to send of X pens... so while the room is open the areas the bunny can go into is not...

Here is one photo of Brooke big white bunny with a tarp underneath her... that is one option you can use to keep trash to a minimum. you scoop up trash or pooh and put in the garbage.

Other is of Lady with a baby gate in front of her, that way she is blocked from going into other area of the house and she can't roam around.

Another option for you to give your baby more space is a baby play pen. I keep Brooke in a big one but when we were cleaning out her normal big one, she was put in this smaller one and was relaxing. I think a baby play pen this size would
be good for your baby. It has room and there is space for a litter box.

Another pic of is Lady's cage. You can see she makes a mess!

More soon

Get an exercise pen. That will give your bunny more room. You can use your current cage for a litter box inside the pen. The mess will then be kept in the pen.

Here are sample pics of exercise pens set up for rabbits. Just click on the link.

he is so agressive.I plan that put him on the balcony,where he will has a more place for walk around

 

[selbert]

Make sure the balcony is safe and he can't escape. Spend lots of time with him, if he is aggressive, there will be a reason why. I take my rabbits for walks, maybe you can do this? You can buy a harness and go outside for long walks, then maybe cuddle on the sofa? Lots of exercise and lots of attention will make a happy bunny.

Here are some harnesses that you can buy for him:

I would not recommend a collar and leash, only a harness. Otherwise you might hurt him. If you have trouble understanding, I might be able to translate some parts, but it might be badly haha.

All the best,
Selina

Hay is essential. Your bunny needs it every day -- unlimited.
How about the name 'Snow'?
Here are a couple cage type ideas:

Hey Blue eyes, what's the second cage that you have on the pictures?

I'm sorry I was not able to answer your other email quickly. I had an accident and have been trying to recover. Out on the balcony where he might fall is not good. Did you see pictures of Xpens?

Sorry I missed this...

These are NIC cages. They are very popular among us bunny people. But I'll PM you since you may miss this reply.
