We just got our first rabbit, a 5 month old lionhead male. He is the sweetest thing, very gentle with my daughter (she has been not so patiently waiting for a rabbit for months), I am very pleased with this rabbit.
I was wondering if any veteran rabbit owners would offer me some tips or advice. This rabbit will be our pet, but he will be outdoors in a hutch. I plan on moving the hutch into our barn during the winter. We have a pen for him to get exercise in daily. Would you suggest getting him neutered? Do male rabbits exhibit aggression as they mature the way other intact male animals do?
What about feed? We have some alfalfa pellets and hay for him right now, and of course veggie treats. What kind of treats and things should we avoid?
Thanks guys!
