Bunny Boy had Bunnies..

[Bunnylady]

You don't understand I think?....Bunny Boy is a single Rabbit Here on my farm. He was given away although I brought him back home because I didn't like his situation at the place I gave him too. Yesterday I found Babies so that changes Bunny Boy to actually Bunny Girl...my Bunny was a girl and his Was aboy . I have babies and he doesn't.....

I got it, already. You thought you had a boy, you gave him away to someone who tried to use him to breed his girl which actually turned out to be a boy, which then bred your boy which turned out to be a girl.

Lots of people (even experienced rabbit people, sometimes) get confused about rabbit gender; we even joke about being visited by the "sex change fairy."

I didn't like the fact that he was in with other rabbits so soon.

So what does that ^^^^ mean -you thought s/he should be quarantined longer maybe?

Oh, and by the way:

Aren't Rex black with Brown points?

NO breed comes in black with brown points - that type of coloration doesn't happen in rabbits. The closest you can come might be Tan rabbit:

Awesome...Yep I'm totally not in my zone with Rabbits. Bunny Boy was and is my pet and only was supposed to be a pet. Zero bunnies here.........It happened.
Thanks for your help.

My pen is a prefabed Chicken Coop and worked great for Bunny Boy. I had winterized it for him and now fixed a few things for Her......Holy smokes I'm shocked my Bunny Boy is a Girl...

Should they be moved once leaving the nest to a heated spot?...I'm clueless about Bunnies?...

 

[chickens really]

Can they eat pellets and hay? I won't give them Bunny Boys carrots and treats......Sounds complicated...

Do I actually need to wear rubber gloves?

No, I manhandled mine daily. Scent doesn't matter. Your scent is already all over the bunny hutch from caring for them.

Thanks because I'm touching them too...

If you are able and willing to bring them in why not???
Definitely warmer.

They are absolutely the most adorable bunnies I have seen, except for Oldhenlikesdogs....Hers were way too cute. At least I can touch mine...

I would make sure as you have done, to stuff the nest box full of hay or straw. With 4 they should be able to keep warm. If it gets colder the mom will add more fur, mine did, when it turned colder. I personally wouldn't bring them in unless you see a problem. They are best kept right where they are.

In about 3-4 weeks they will be coming out to start to nibble at mom's feed. Rabbit fur is so warm. I worried about mine in the cold but they did fine. Yours should be old enough before it gets really cold to handle the cold themselves.
