How many times a day should a baby rabbit eat?
baby rabbits don't eat a big portion of food when they start off but if there is a lot of babies then you will need a bit of extra for.
Try giving him half a handful of food if he's small, but increase the amount as he grows or if he eats the 1/2 handful really quick and is still hungry.
How often do bunnies have babies?
As often as they are bred. It takes approx. 30 days to have babies and a doe CAN be rebred the same day she kindles. (This is not a good practice besides having tons of babies it will shorten the life of your doe.) A more realistic breeding program is breed doe, kindle in 30 days, start weaning babies at 6 weeks, rebreed doe between 7th and 8th week. Wean all babies by 8th week and the doe will have babies again 30 days from the day you bred her.

About Domestic Rabbits
They can be rabbits because when they are bred by a farmer or a specialised breeder they are taught to become familiar with people touching and holding them.
They are also easy too look after and fairly small, which means that housing is cheaper than larger animals. They are also fairly harmless, so make good pets for children or inexperienced pet owners.
Disagreement: Rabbits are actually not very easy to look after. They take a lot of work! See the related questions below for details and helpful links.
About wild Rabbits
One user writes: They can also become pets by people finding them in the wild. The first time I found a bunny was when my dog got it. My friend and I helped it and since I saw the mother I set it free. The second time a different friend was up. We didn't see the mom so we took the one my dog was chasing and the one that was hopping toward the sand box.
Disagreement: You should not keep wild rabbits. Wild animals are not domesticated and will never really be satisfied living a domestic life: they will always yearn for the great outdoors and wild living. Only in special cases, when an animal has been hurt or abandoned and for some reason can't be rehabilitated and released, then it can be raised at home. If that happens to you, you should contact a local authority to help you figure out how to take care of this animal. Different species require slightly different care! A local authority could be a wildlife rehabber, rabbit rescue organization, vet, SPCA, animal shelter, or government agency. See links below for help.
Rabbits have two SETS of eyelids but three actual eyelids per eye. The external eyelids are like ours - an upper lid and a lower lid, both with lashes and these are used for shutting out light. Between these and the eyeball is a third eyelid which is very pale and lubricates the eye.
Yes, they do. They have eyelids and so they blink, although I think not as much as humans personally.
Jack rabbits - like all rabbits - are herbivores, plant eaters.
Is there such thing as the Easter Bunny?
There is no such thing as the Easter bunny. Parents / Guardians just tell you there is such thing to make the holidays brighten up and put a little more spirit into them :)

It mostly depends on if you let it out or not. I let mine out for exercise everyday which gives my rabbit a healthy lifestyle. But I also have a dog and we all know dogs get fleas so I have to be careful of that. So yes there probably is a chance so just check him/her regularly.

Is it all right to mate a four month old male rabbit with a 8 month old female rabbit?
It's widely advised not to breed your rabbits. Rabbits are overpopulated in many areas around the world. In North American shelters, hundreds of rabbits are killed every year just because there's not enough room. If you have the resources to care for more rabbits, consider adopting from a local shelter. It will love you!
If you do decide to breed your rabbits, spend some time beforehand researching how to do it safely so that all the rabbits can be happy and healthy. Seek veterinary care for all the rabbits, too. There are many resources online that can help you. And make sure you have good homes for all of them beforehand!
If you have a 4-month-old rabbit, and a 3-month-old rabbit, you have another 3 to 4 months before they can breed.
You shouldn't breed a pair of rabbits until they are both 6 months old. The gestation period of a rabbit is 28-32 days. Once the buck and doe are both six months you can either breed them on a table or bring the doe to the bucks cage but whatever you do, DO NOT put the buck in the does cage. Does are very protective of their cages. (Make sure your rabbits are not living in the same cages. Please. You cannot have a buck and a doe living in the same cage). Write down the date you bred them and on the 28th day give the doe a wooden nest box full of shavings and hay. She will usually make a nest and pull hair and most of the time will have kits alive and well in the box.
