You can hold the bunnies carefully after they are "fully furred," which means a sheen of fur all over the body (usually about 4 days old). Do not play with the bunnies or take them away from their mother for extended periods of time. Be very careful because mom may be aggressive and protective so she may bite.

For the safety of the baby, you should wait until their eyes are open and they are able to get out of the nest box on their own before playing with them.

However, when they are younger, you should pick up at least 1 out of the litter to ensure the good health of the litter. Only 1 person should handle the babies, and you should always be very careful and use slow, steady movements.

When do baby bunnies start to hear?

Bunnies typically open their eyes around 10 days. Some bunnies open their eyes even earlier if they feel that they really need to see where they are or what's going on. All my bunnies (so far) have opened their eyes on the afternoon of the 11th day. I sometimes "help" the process by taking off the crustiness that forms to help seal the bunnies eyes.
