I am a new bunny mom to 2 bunnies (not yet neutered but will be) they are mini rex's and approx. 12 weeks old. I have ordered a large C&C cage for them, they are already bonded and get on great. Is this cage large enough? It's only one level. I am planning to also get them an exercise pen so they get plenty of out of the cage time. I can also add levels as they get bigger if I need to.
Currently they are not litterbox trained. Does this mean I should be using the carefresh bedding in all of their pen or just in the litter pans? Do they need a litter pan each or will they share? If I don't use the bedding throughout what else goes down on the floor for something soft? They don't seem to be chewers yet although it is a little too quick to know as I have only owned them 2 days and am on a steep learning curve lol.
I am slowly introducing fresh veggies, carrots, dandelion leaves and clover is a hit so far. They have free choice grass hay (I have sheep so it is always around a great quality) and pellets. I am using a water dish which they are keeping clean and using. I have some toys and enrichment things for their cage but will probably over do it with more. In the process of finding a good vet in my area, and trying to spend time with the bunnies 3-4 times a day. They are a little skittish of being picked up, but settle down as soon as they are held to me.
I read that they shouldn't have a salt block why is that?
Thanks everyone for the help and advice in advance.
