Bunnies Update

New bunnies update now that they left the nest

The new baby bunnies have now moved out of the nest. Now they are hopping around the hutch. I was shocked when I noticed they are running all three levels of the hutch. I thought for sure I was going to need to add a cover so they would not fall down the openings. But they showed me. 

With the bunnies hopping all over the place, it has drawn the attention of some of the other animals. Now I have Sid hiding and stalking the hutch. He is very interested in the little ones.

This was the most shocking as I never had an issue with him and the adult rabbits. I guess we are running low on mice for him to hunt.

Also they have gathered Chatty’s attention. Now he has always worried me with the rabbits. I have seen him stalk them from day one. He will sit on top of the rabbit run waiting for a chance to attack. Chatty surprised me when we opened the hutch to fill the hay feeders. He was very genital  with the two adult rabbits. First thing he did was give Val a kiss and then he wanted to pet them. Yea, I thought this was strange as well. 

Luckily Lucy, Mr. Purr, and Tiny have not shown too much interest in the baby bunnies yet. The babies are the cutest little things. I find it hard to describe them. They are a small rabbit with stubby ears, scrubby fluff balls. The little ones are very active and rambunctious one moment then they are huddled and napping in a instant.  They are now starting to forage for hay and starting to drink from the waterier. These little ones are growing so fast!
