Rabbit Care

When taking your new bunnies home please take into consideration that your bunny needs at least two weeks to acclimate into its new environment. After a couple of weeks, you can slowly start handling your bunny a couple times a day. Please always monitor young children when handling.

For small breeds I recommend a medium- sized dog crate for properly housing your rabbit. Bigger breeds need a larger size dog crate. Please keep in mind that these cage recommendations are considered for indoor/free roam rabbits. 

FEEDING:

Blue Seal Show Hutch, found at at your local tractor supply, is the feed we use for our rabbits here at Trulie Rex! We will send you home with a bag of blue seal to use as transitional food.  If you cannot find blue seal, we recommend oxbow.  

If you plan on switching, please use the feed we send home with you to help make an easier switch on your bunny over the course of the first few day

Pelletized bedding is what we use here at our bunny barn and recommend for our customers to use. These pellets absorb very well and keep the smell down more than anything we’ve used in the past. This bag and brand can normally be found at your local tractor supply.

We also feed a small amount of Calf Manna Supplement with every feeding of Blue pellets. This is also found at local tractor supply. It gives added protein, along with healthy coats, and other health benefits.

And don't forget that they always need Timothy Hay and fresh water at all times. You can add a tiny amount of apple cider vinegar to each refill of their water bottle to help with urinary hea
