With babies you want to give them just a bit of greens to see how they do before giving them every day. My doe loves banana's. Its pretty funny as we share a banana. she will be having kits soon.

Do you ever go to rabbit shows? There is one in Monroe in the spring.

It is better to give them leaf type greens is all I know and that head lettuce is not as good.

Do you know what breed your rabbit is? It is sooo cute but then again I am known as the crazy rabbit lady!

She is a satin/rex mix. Her mom was grey, and I don't know about her dad.

Hate to argue but this rabbits is a Netherland dwarf.

Satins are 10 lb rabbits, mini rex are 4 lbs, mini satins between 4 and 6 lbs.
this rabbit has dwarf fur not the rex fur which is like crushed velvet and easily spotted in a picture, if it was satin fur it would have a high sheen, which this one does not have.
what you actually have is a Smoked Pearl Netherland dwarf.

Mini Rex:

Netherland Dwarf:

Satin:

See the difference in size between the 2 Dwarf Breeds and the Satin.
your little rabbit should weigh no more than 4 lbs full grown.

It's actually a boy--named Bon-Bon. We figured that out recently. It doesn't like the leash and harness we put on it.

Also, that was when it was one month old. It's about nine months old now, and big. Big.
