A lot of people want the best tips for raising rabbits, well I have a few!
First: Sadly many rabbits died in the summer due to overheating. A great thing to do is to froze soda bottles. Then on a hot day put them in with your rabbits. My rabbits normally lay around or on top of them. This is great for cooling!
Another: In the summer many plants are in bloom. You can go out and pick the plants that grow wild. I like to take a small box with me and fill it up. I give each cage about half a box. And I do this twice a day. If you do this you may cut down on their food intake a little. This helps save money as well! And the rabbits love it!
Another: If you have a big strawberry patch like I do and you also have baby bunnies you can do this. I take the babies when they are about 3 weeks, and I let them run around in my patch. Mine normally only eat the tall grass that grows on the sides. Put yours in there and see if they eat your strawberries, if not they can play in there! But remember to put cold water in there with them! Plus a box so they can be in the shade if they get too hot. (Note: It is best to do this before your strawberries bloom)
Last: Let your big Rabbits have some time in the grass too. If you have a fenced area you can let them run around in there. But you MUST watch them the whole time, because they may start to dig there way out!
Well I hope these tips will help you have happy bunnies this summer! Thanks for reading!
