Flemish Giant Rabbits - as a pet...

[slim6y]

Hmm, a bunny that hits 7-8kg + contacts in Australian herpetoculture + big *** freezer = business opportunity!

APS won't be the same without you slim!

hehehe - I think we think the same... however... will I need to revert to the 'export' of frozen food to Australia?

You do get flemish giants here you know - just can't keep them in Queensland that's all... So all your scrubbies go hungry!

Just because I leave the country doesn't mean I leave APS - mate... this is my first forum... I'm sticking with it... Until someone does New Zealand Giant Bunnies.com....

Soak them first in a bucket of soapy water and then let them do it themselves... Always leave a dry one to come in afterwards to remove the excess water tho.

An EXTREMELY sad graphic movie about rabbits...look into it, if you like rabbits it'll break your heart! It's rather old but a famous classic

(singing) Bright eyes... Burning like fire... (did I see a tear roll down your cheek....)

I have an appointment on Monday to see the bunny specialist in Kaipoi (just north of Christchurch) to see the bucks and the does - she said that it takes 14 weeks from birth till ownership as they get vaccinated at 12 weeks.

We're thinking of between 1 - 3 does at the moment.

She sent some photos - and they're totally adorable looking creatures.

But she said they get tattooed as well???

So - these bunnies are a little bit punk? Sweet... Me and the bunnies can chat about skin art on a few occasions and I can show them mine too

Here's some pics of the males - one of which (at least) will be the father of our baby rabbits...

A 6 month old buck

At 6 months and weighing in at 5.11kg!!!

Another very cute buck

How could you not ADORE this animal???

They also come in three colours - but only one size... BIG!

This isn't a giant rabbit.... But I thought I'd throw it in there anyway as one of the locals...

They look very cute. I have a friend that was trying to rehome one, it's hard enough to convince the hubby to let me have another rabbit let alone a giant one! Make sure you update the thread when you receive your little ones!
