We have two very pretty and soft looking bunnies at my house now. I need to find my camera so I can post some pictures. I bet Bailey knows where it is…
We’ve named the buck Stewart (Stew) and the doe Dumplin’. She was breaded with a different buck yesterday so any doe babies can mate with Stew. The gestation period for a rabbit is 28-35 days with an average of 31 days. That means that around this time next month I will have baby bunnies. I’m excited. Bunnies don’t have fur when they are born, but they grow up quickly. The girls will be ready to mate when they are about four months old. The doe is white and she has pink eyes and the buck is kind of yellow like a tabby cat. I like the buck better. He is less shy and prettier than the doe.
My dog doesn’t know what to make of them. He’s very worked up and I can tell he feels a since of responsibility. Right now he’s sitting under their cages to get a good sniff of them, but I don’t think that will last long. They make a huge amount of excrement.
Rabbit poop is great for the garden and it doesn’t get hot and burn your plants like other kinds of litter.
