I need a picture.... great name.

I´ve entered mine in a competition on the radio via facebook for the cutest pets....well, they have to win hands down, they´ll probably be the only bunny entry as they´re all cats and dogs.
 
Thank you, I love Norse mythology and Loki was always my favorite character. :) He's such a sweet little guy(or girl kinda too early to tell) he snuggled with me the whole ride home! The only reason I could tear myself away from him to type this is because he's napping lol. My internet sucks and I can't upload a picture at the moment. :( Oh I should also mention, my little sister got one too! They came from the same guy, hers might be 7 weeks, there were about 7 or 8 in the same cage. She's had a rabbit before(Pip) but she just kinda lost interest in it after a couple months, so my mom decided to give her another chance and if she doesn't take care of that one then hey I'm not against two li'l guys! :) I felt sad as I left with Loki though, there was a cage of about 10 little dutch babies, I was seriously considering one, but I'd wanted a lop for longer and I thought that my sister was getting one of the dutches anyway. Well she decided on a lop instead, it was sad nobody gave them a second glance if they even gave them a first. They were also cheaper then the lops, probably because so many people think dutches are plain. The flea market was sad anyway, I mean they had two younger flemish giants in a tiny cage and there was barely room for both of them to lay against each other. I mean I know they have traveling cages and that's part of it but you could tell some of the bunnies just were not taken care of. Most of them didn't have water, or if the did it was dirty or had algae on the bottom. I would have taken every one of those bunnies home with me if I could have. :(
 
Wow, how exciting that you got another bunny! I bet he/she is adorable. I hope you manage to upload the picture soon as I'd love to see little Loki.

I like the name Loki because they made a movie about him and Thor and he is the evil guy but I still like him haha.
 
OMG how'd they get so big?? Lol I guess it's the new camera, I'll have to figure out how to resize them.
 
They're really cute! Your sisters little one, Hazel, looks just like my first bunny who passed away recently, Foo. Foo was white with orange ears like that too and orange around her eyes.
Loki is really cute though! I have a soft spot for lops.

I can't believe people wouldn't want the dutchies! They're so cute! But I could be biased as I have a dutch! She has been more of a pain in the butt than any other animal I've ever had, but I wouldn't trade my little Black and White for anything! haha.
They're really cute. I hope your sister won't loose interest this time. Rabbits are great pets.
 
Thank you! :) Ellie was actually the main reason I looked into dutches. I just wanted to scoop up all of them and take them home with me!
 
Emily, they are really cute! Morgan, Hazel reminds ,e of Foo Foo too. I really like lop bunnies they are so adorable! And seeing your new bunny Loki makes me want to get another rabbit too.

The pictures are pretty big. When I take pictures with my iphone they turn out big too so I use this to shrink them: shrinkpictures.com I set the size to 600 pixels and the quality to best. And than when its finally done resizing the picture a buttin appears that says download this picture. I press that button and than a thing pops up that says open file or something like that and I click it and the picture pops up. Than there's a button that says file I click on that and there is a button that says make a copy and I click on that and than a thing pops up that says save and I click save and that's it, its saved to your computer. Its a lot quicker than it sounds.

Anyway, I resized the pictures for you, here they are.

The third picture wouldn't work for some reason though. So I just left that one out.
 
Loki's a hyper li'l guy, he's breaking his time into two things, playing and snoozing lol. With the other bunnies I never really got to experience them as babies, Smokey was at least a year when I got her and I got Livvy and Pip when they were about 6 months and they were basically as big as they are now. So Loki's the only real *baby* rabbit I've had. :) I can only tear myself away from him when he's sleeping.
 
I was getting ready to fuss at you for having a new camera and a new bunny but not posting pics till I read about your internet. I am glad you got pics up though. Both buns are adorable. Take a lot of pics, they grow so fast. I love baby buns.

I feel so bad for the others. Hopefully the not well taken care of ones will wind up in loving homes and the taken care of ones as well.
 
Lol my dad was like: So I guess we can expect you bombing facebook with all your bunny pictures. Lol I'll probably end up with an album with pictures of every day of Lokis life. My new camera also takes HD videos so there'll be lots of videos of him too! :) I hope so too, looking back I'm like: maybe I should have gotten a dutch.....But I'm really happy with little Loki. :D
 
Loki is adorable and even though Ellie is a dutch, you can't pass up a lop. I loved Foo and there is something about their grump faces and their smushy foreheads. haha. I love lops.
 
Lol and at this age they've got those adorabel aeroplane ears! I think I do see a dutch in my future though. ;)
 
Eeeek, what cute little lops! Congrats! They're mini lops, right? I couldn't tell the difference for the life of me before but I think I'm learning with the length of the ears and the head shape. I got my first lop yesterday too; a Holland from a breeder at a show. I'm already in love with lops! :hearts

I love his name too; I have a few with Greek mythology names. Have you read or studied The Prose Edda? Loki's role in the tales always cracked me up. I thought he was the most amusing of the trickster gods. Plus the look on my professor's face as she was attempting to tell us about Loki fathering an eight-legged horse named Sleipnir without laughing was priceless!

Do you have pictures of your rabbits' living arrangements? I love seeing how people with more than two house them. :)
 
Thank you! Yep their mini lops(though apparently in the UK that's what they call hollands) Aww congratulations to you too! :) No I've never read that, is it like an older book? Yes I meant to put them up today. They're only temporary as we're building them a shed soon.
 
They are just so gorgeous, do enjoy his baby stage as they change so quickly. I remember my first two when they were tiny lying on me sleeping for ages...they never really do that once they get older.

I´m the same as you, my sister bought me a new camera when she came to stay in April and it also takes HD video and I´m also taking photos and videos of them. I still never manage to get really good video of binkying although Houdini does it every day but when he sees the camera he stops, the little rascal.

Put as many pics and videos as you want on her, I just love seeing everyone´s little bunnies.
 
Thank you! :) I've taken a couple videos and I'll upload them to youtube soon. Now I have to go play with my big adult bunnies, I don't want them to feel left out!
 
Oh the name thing is ridiculous! I was so confused when learning about lops. What I finally got from it was that American mini lops are the larger 6-8 pound lops and Hollands are the dwarf lops that are ideally 3 pounds but up to 4. But UK mini lops are Hollands, and in some places they call Hollands dwarf lops instead. I think. :confused: I was trying to figure all of this out because I really wanted a blue tortoiseshell mini lop that I saw but didn't want a bun that would get over 4 pounds since my others are small. :rofl:

Yes, The Prose Edda is a compilation of the Norse myths featuring Odin, Thor, Loki, Fenrir, and all the rest. Mythology was one of the required classes for my degree and some of it was really bizarre, but the Norse stuff was really enjoyable. It helped that I had a crazy professor that liked to relate it to things she had seen on South Park and the Colbert Report. :p

Okay, we really must see more pictures of Loki and his sibling! Did you mention what your sister named hers? Maybe you could "help" her name it in case that one ends up being yours too. And before I forget to ask, is Olivia a silver marten Netherland or a black otter?
