They should be 4 months.

What shots your rabbit needs depends on where you live -- they may not need any shots at all. If you have a rabbit, speak with your rabbit-savvy vet about what shots your rabbit needs and when.

You can hold the bunny when it is about 1 to 2 months old, but be careful: bunnies are very happy when they have a lot of attention, so be careful because they can hop off you and fall and get hurt.

Most rabbits don't like being picked up or held. When you pick up a rabbit, it could panic and hurt itself. Never pick a rabbit up by the ears, because this is very painful for them. Always support the hind legs, because if they panic and kick into thin air, they can actually break their backs. Never drop or throw a rabbit: their bones are delicate and break easily. Ask your vet how to hold your rabbit safely! See the related video (linked below) for details about how to hold a rabbit!

You'll have to hold your rabbit sometimes, at least for grooming and physical exams. Babies should be socialised to tolerate handling so they don't cause problems down the road when you need to hold them. However, handling might always be stressful for the bunny, so you shouldn't force them to do things they don't like when it isn't necessary. Stress leads to a low quality of life and even illness.

If you want a pet that you can hold, consider a cat. Rabbits enjoy being petted on the floor, and sometimes on your lap, but they don't often like being held.
