Hi! You seem to be a new bunny owner with not much experience & I hope this comment respectfully finds its way towards you. After watching your video I have lots of things to touch on. I know some people do not want unsolicited advice but as a fellow bunny owner, I care a lot about these animals & want to provide some knowledge & resources! 1.) Rabbits are very active animals that don't belong in hutches or cages. I know its shown a lot in the media but it stems from their history of being bred as meat rabbits that must he fattened up as quickly as possible. The two floor hutches can be used for guinea pigs and smaller animals but not so much for rabbits. I would suggest an exercise pen / puppy play pen if you can't let your rabbit out often for atleast 4 hours a day to roam. I bought two pens to create a larger space and they're about $50 each. I know hutches are hella expensive 😭😭. One floor along with a hidey house or cat tunnel and soft fleece flooring should be the best for them. Plus it would keep the ammonia from the urine from building up and making your rabbit sick & causing the entire place to eventually reek. Much easier cleaning! 2.) Bruno chewing on the wood of the cage isn’t him “disrespecting his house” it’s a natural rabbit instinct to chew & dig, so he needs enrichment toys to keep him busy from being destructive in other places. Luckily they are pretty eco friendly and enjoy things made of grass, untreated wood & cardboard so u can DIY it. 3.) Bruno should have his own litterbox and the bedding should only be in the litterbox and not all over his habitat. “All he does is eat hay and paper.” please avoid letting him ingest his bedding & paper as much as possible. Blockages are common and deadly. Fleece lining on hard surfaces is necessary since his feet have no paw pads only a thick coat of dense fur. If the fur wears down it’s called having Sore Hocks & he can get wounds that don’t heal or even infections. Potty training a rabbit is relatively easy if he is neutered. It’ll help with bad habits and territorial marking (like peeing all over your bed 💀). Unfixed rabbits almost always develop reproductive cancers at around age 5. A healthy rabbit can live up to 15 years. 4.) Food. The recommended pellet amount is 1 tbsp per 1 body weight. Too much can cause overproduction of cecotropes, obesity and blockages (again, very deadly). By 3 months he’s allowed to have a handful of fresh veggies in the morning & night too! Start introducing them slowly so he won’t get an upset stomach. He gets unlimited hay though! 5.) Please never use those water bottles that you hook up to a cage. They can break their necks using them & be very dehydrated if they get too tired or the water isn’t streaming out fast enough. It’s an unnatural way to consume water & they should be given a heavy ceramic bowl (or one with a stand) that they can’t tip over to sip from. Dehydration can be deadly since water helps gut motility & if there isn’t enough water it can cause blockages (again) and your rabbit can die very quickly. I know I emphasize this a lot but it’s the scariest thing to experience as a rabbit owner & there’s so many ways their digestive system can go wrong. Yay! Rabbits are very misunderstood animals and lots of pet stores have no idea what they’re talking about or marketing things that are dangerous to our companion animals so here are my favorite resources to read from: wabbitwiki.com & bunnylady.com, the House Rabbit Society webpage. some knowledgeable rabbit youtubers: Sincerely Cinnabun, Lennon the Rabbit, 101Rabbits & Kat_esque I hope u have a wonderful day!
I am a new rabbit owner, I meant to say he eats hay & pellets & I was joking when I said he disrespects his house 😂 I know rabbits need to chew on things. But thank you this was very helpful 🤗❤️
I love this. Since it's still a little give it alfalfa hay. Congratulations ❤️ Your going to fall in love with being a Bun mom I would also suggest a lot more hay in its litter box. I'm so excited for you
You are doing great but for the eating his cage I didn't see any toys so that might help and it is a small space so he's probably just bored bunnies can be very active I would suggest a different cage setup it's just a little small but he's adorable and I can tell you love him💕
HEY GYALLLL, idk if you upgraded your bunnies set up yet but PLEASE GET MY HOMEBOY A XPEN OR SMTH. you can keep the hutch but a x pen around it. A small space like that can cause the rabbit aggression, depression and boredom. And I recommend doing a little bit more research, GOODLUCK GYALLLLLL
I suggest watching "Lennon the bunny" because rabbits don't live cages, hatches, outside, ect they don't belong there:(( PLEASE DO MORE RESEARCH ❤ Also you can free roam or get a big play pen 😊
i think if you watch lenon the bunny youll get a bit more knolge about them and if you know you should not keep the rabbit in a huntch unless you let the rabbit out so it can stand up and run around for you to know
You should! Bruno has a whole personality of his own & I love watching him jump around. I will say there verrry curious so make sure there’s nothing on the ground they can get into but They make great pets 🤗
@@uqoz online services like Amazon will be your best friend. I'm in the countryside myself, and it's really hard to find Timothy hay, since local crops are mostly barley
the hutch doesnt meet the requirements for how much things they need and how much space. you could of gotten something alot cheaper with more space, an x pen would be the best option. a hutch is a waste of money
What the please tell me that your rabbit doesn't stay in there for more then an hour a day that is qay to small your are torturing your ranbit that poor thing. You need to give your bunny a larger space with more space to run and Binky.
