RE: Raising Ornamental Rabbits Is Not Easy: My $9 Lesson

in Hive Pets21 hours ago

I don't understand why people don't educate themselves before they have animals. Rabbits aren't supposed to live in cages all the time. They need a nice place to run. They need stimulation so they don't get bored etc. Your cage looks awful. Poor rabbits.

Sort:  

"Actually I don't have a place to keep rabbits yet. This is my neighbor's cat cage, I just borrowed it for a while to put the rabbit in. Thank you for the advice. In the future I will make a proper place for my rabbit's home, so it will be more comfortable."

Cat cage? Wow. It gets better. So you bought rabbits and had nowhere to put them? You rode on a motorbike for 2 hours with the rabbits in a box? Are you for real? Do you even know what sex they are? Do you know too much watermelon can upset their stomachs? It should only be given as a treat. The rind is much better. They need a balanced diet.

Yes, I bought them from out of town. The distance from my house is about 35-40km. I didn't have a place to put the rabbits yet, so I borrowed a cat cage from my neighbor.
When I bought the rabbits, the seller picked the gender for me: 2 females and 2 males.
I know that giving too much watermelon can make a rabbit's stomach bloated. That's why I feed them vegetables and special rabbit pellets from the factory.
I used to raise rabbits too, from babies until they were adults. Their fur was so soft because I took care of them with vitamins and special rabbit shampoo. But when they were adults, they were taken by someone who passed by. I had taken care of them for so long, and they had grown as big as an Angora cat
