Youngsters - caring for adolescent / teenage rabbits

The adolescence and teenage years of a young rabbit is full of new experiences and learning! Youngsters usually leave their mother and siblings at around 8 to10 weeks old, so a young rabbit won’t have seen much outside of their environment. As a new bunny owner you need to be prepared to settle your rabbit into its new home, so they grow up to be a happy and confident adult rabbit. Do you know what your young bunny needs, how to feed it, what problems to look out for and when to call the vet? All of these, and more, are so important when taking on a young pet rabbit.
