[animallover6734]

[Kalinkinaful]

the patterning on the baby is unique!

[MsClassicRemix]

OMG!! I want your rabbit with the black stripe down the spine. The markings are perfect!! What a pretty bunny!!! :D

[kurockergurl]

aww this video makes me sad cuz both my friends dutch bunnies died :( her first one, boxa died because she was sick when she got her and the second one, lola got attacked by a fox and when they took her in for surgery she died from the anesthetics :( i miss lola i knew her best and we were hoping to breed her with my friends other rabbit radar when she was old enough

[GabiBloody]

@MsAntoniaMiskic

CAT KILLER STFU

[MsAntoniaMiskic]

@xCherryGurlzx Did you know that if you chop off a rabbit's head and duct tape a severed yorkie's head to its body, it looks like a normal dog?

[Giann57Angelito]

@MsAntoniaMiskic No it doesn't look like a dog, It will only look like a dead dog.

[willowsendeavor]

i think they bonded very well :)

[rozzanna1975]

very cute

[iLoveSkittles121]

The baby one has really PRETTY markingsss! <3

[THEMYSYAMIMI]

WOW! YOUR BUNNY IS SOOOOO PRETTTTTY!

[gizmo747]

perfect dutch markings

[iluvbryan95]

OMG !

they are the cutest ihave ever seen .

ilove the colors to.

[TravisTricky]

I'm binding mine now. The first "date" went OK until my older male (neutered) mounted one too many times and my female (spayed) had enough of that. Although my male is older, he's smaller, so that didn't work out too well for him. Hopefully future date will end up looking like this *finger crossed*

[frecklydharma]

Is this there first date? I'm going to try and bond my rabbit soon.

[MissCheerleaders2010]

Hello,

what bread is the black and white one (the smallest one) is it a Holland lop rabbit?

and our your rabbits neutored?

[ianchamberlin]

@ilovehoppel The english was very thin and always was, you might notice Ive made comments about visits to the vets about it and being told she was perfect. The dutch in this video is probably an absolutely ideal body type for his age at the time. Dutch are a cobby breed and can easily get fat if fed improperly. I keep him on an all hay diet apart from winter where he gets a very small amount of pellets, he is middleaged now and has got quite a big butt but is still a healthy body size.

[KayakServer]

@ianchamberlin Wish I Knew More about Dutch And English Spot

I Have the Offical ARABA Rabbits and Cavies Standards of perfection

2011-2015

[XxMissxCometxX]

@KayakServer I can tell you a lot about Dutch rabbits.

[spunkygen49]

@ilovehoppel

They are perfectly fine!!!!! Maby you're just an emo anorexic!!!!!!!!!! Ever think of that?!

[fragenemas]

@ilovehoppel Overweight!? They're at a perfect body weight.

[TheHighwayHorse]

@ilovehoppel they arnt over weight they are ideal

[airiel970]

@ilovehoppel my rabbit is bigger than them my bunny needs a diet they are not over weight

[77jesusislord]

they r sooo pretttyyy prettier than mine even tho mine is sooo prettyy too mee



[MrBlueMo0n]

I have 2 mixed lionhead/ mini lops (check out my profile picture LOL) who have a great relationship together. About 1 and a half years old. They are very big for an average rabbit. Point is, we may be getting a pure lionhead male, 3 months old. DO YOU GUYS THINK THAT THEY CAN BOND? Thanks, would like to know soon.

[BabyBlueDiime]

They're beautiful. 

[DreachFhoula]

ooo i like the english bunny ... so cute :) i got 2 male dutch :) they are brats from time to time.. but adorable and play well together since we got them at the same time on my birthday.. best suprise wakeup ever :P

[cammarkgross]

They both have beautiful markings!!!!

[beastwarsEclipse]

omg the one with the stripe going dowwn its back is gorgeous

[TinkerXMischief]

Thanks so much for this video! It has helped me see the sizes of a dutch and english together! :) I have a gorgeous dutch boy who is nearly a year old and I am getting him a friend soon, she is a black English - a young one. :)

[emzypel]

i do a lot of rabbit shows and deal with both these types of rabbit! dutches are usually heavy but beautiful. i love englishes colour but they are very thin because of a small skeleton. they also are quite reluctant to be held but this english looks the best!!! you are so lucky to have these rabbits they are beautiful!!

[TuulinTupsukka]

they're soooo cute! Give them to me! o.o

[KLLSIMMONS04]

lol i though rabbits eat Carrots.. :)

[Shannon2009Clark]

I love you rabbit, I knew that one of them is a Dutch just by looking at him because me and my friend Sara have been researching rabbits because we want one so bad and both your rabbits are way cute.

[Fluffymonkeyem]

How did it turn out? I'm looking into adopting a new bun soon, and this video popped up in my search for information. They look cute together. wary, but cute. :)

[kinzie8989]

I am gonna try to bond my mini lop that is 4 months and a full grown short hair (fuzzy)

[KillHannah7]

Lol. Bless! I love buns so much! :) I'm attempting the same, I've had a female rabbit for about 4 months now, and we're very very close. I've got a rescue rabbit for her, a male. At first they started to fight a little but I told them 'No fighting' and they soon learnt to stop. My female rabbit is scared of the male though, he wants to play or cuddle, but she runs away scared and just sits by me? How can I help this? Many thanks. xxxx

[CRAZYoverthesims]

The one with the stripe down its back it cool

[Jicurtis6039]

Was this their first time meeting?

[GuitarLegend71]

That looks more like a satin than an English, and I know the baby's ears don't lop, but still cute.

[brewsterlucy114]

i like the one wit a stripe on his back i have never seen one like that

[andrea979797]

wow nice rabbit nice color ^^

[Gaskinator123]

Is the kitten a girl or a boy?

[Gaskinator123]

I have two male rabbits, they live in the same cage but they don't fight which i'm happy about. Do they not fight because they are brothers and have never been seperated for their 2 year life?

[janitormopmop]

i have 2. one is like 4 the other is 2 and they dont fght. they arent neatured or anything and their both males. but they hump each other all day and sometimes pee on each other

[kaitlin10ct]

wow i never seen a english bunny before, amazing colorings oh her....my male looks like yours but with more black by the neck.

[Kathington]

What gorgeous markings!

[angryfurniture]

thats a prett big dutch rabbit, my female is almost 2 and shes not even that big

[kayeatsbear]

thats because the one in the video is a male. females are smaller than the males.

[GuitarLegend71]

@ kayeatsbear- Quite on the contrary, my friend! the Females are usually about .5 pounds heavier in Dutch.

[rax7]

WOW! i love the one that has a stripe all the way from the head to its tail. right in the middle. so perfect.

[LondonLotus1986]

I Have 2 Dutch Blues. I Love This Breed

[bunniemomma]

WoW! That's some STRIPE!  Reminds me of my Miles & Sasha.....

[LerinS2009]

this video is cute. they look like they're starting to get along in it.

what an interesting pattern on the baby rabbit!

[hms4lisa]

Cute! I'm trying to get mine to bond now. They are both 2+ years old. Put them in neutral territory for 20mn a day, such as a bathtub (harder to fight) or on a bed. It is working. The male is nibbling on the female a little but no fighting like before.

[Jennienlee]

my uncle breeds english spot and i have a Dutch and they get along great!

[Soupsi]

Your dutch rabbit is so beautiful!

The other one has such pretty markings! What kind of rabbit is it?

[drummerjc1995]

its and english spot i think

[harmony4099]

I wish my bunnies would get along! My older bunny, Frank, is such a grump!

[crazy882009]

hey how in the hell u make those rabbits?

what colour they parents?

the spot one look kool

[cheezyjoey]

you dont MAKE rabbits just go to a pet shop and ask for an english rabbt

btw check out my rabbit on my channel

[Kathi10123]

the baby english rabbit has really pretty markings

[watuknogud]

beautiful markings

[Dudessofdaleks]

i have the exact same rabbit ( the one without the spots and shes called meg rabbits are so cute x

[vivalajuicy16]

I have the exact types of rabbits you have except the one that looks like an oreo cookie died a year ago.

[jellybelly500000]

those are such beautiful bunnies!

[IceClanCats]

aww!! the striped one is adorable!

[amourkellie]

they are very pretty :]

[TheR4ndomShow]

I am getting a bunny in mid june should i get a lionhead or a dwarf

[bleedingbanshe13]

If you get a lion head, make sure you are prepared to trim its fur and brush it every day!

[Laura2970]

ooh, the english bunny is beautiful! my dutch bunny foofoo was always kind of vicious but hes kind of cool now...

[noodlechild666]

Haha, im attempting the EXACT same bond right now. Picked up my female English yesterday to go with my 18month old neutered male Dutch who lost his last GF due to a congenital bowel problem.

The bond is going ok, Norbert, my male, doesnt like the fact that she wont sit still and wash him, and grunts a little, but no fighting, which is great.

Yours look great together. Did you find your English was really skinny when you first got her? Mines as light as a feather, and feels emaciated.

[ianchamberlin]

She was so skinny and light and still is at 2 and a half. We have been to the vets with her for regualr weigh ins and he says its because she is on a healthy diet and most wild rabbits would have a similar build. I think English just have really fine bone structures which makes them light, I think they are very beautiful and reifned looking rabbits whereas the dutch rabbit is a massive chunk and although he is much more intelligent.

[fiver79]

Why cant be inside anymore?

[greedkiller]

the spotted one, isn't that a mixed breed of a dutch rabbit and a lotharinger?

[ianchamberlin]

her breed is called an english or english spot.

[TemLo5425]

i just realized, the dutch bunny looks like he's wearing a white shirt and black pants and white socks! *'splode from cute*

and the english bunny looks like a race car ^_^ hee hee! vrooooom.

[TemLo5425]

gorgeous animals! very unique. =)

[XxHaylayyxX]

I love the English's fur pattern. Especially the stripedown its back. =3

I have rabbit videos too. Rabbits are so much fun to have! The part that isn't fun is when they do their business on your bed, and you have to clean it, and cleaning the rabbits' cage. XD

[ianchamberlin]

Thanks to everyone for your lovely comments, I'm so proud of my rabbits they are absolutely beautiful and they were amazing pets to have inside and would recommend having house rabbits. Unfortunately now I am unable to keep them inside so I've converted a garage for them. Its not the same but I think theyre happy!

Also the larger rabbit is a dutch the smaller one (which is now larger than the dutch) is an english (also called english spot), she was originally from show lines.

[theart1rm]

@ianchamberlin Just be sure you monitor the temperature in the garage. If their is space you could throw down a twin size mattress on the floor and give them a blanket, they will soon realize it is theirs & will play on it alot, sleep on it alot, do binkies on it alot. When these situations happen it is hard for us to accept, which is also true for your buns. They don't understand why all of a sudden they can't be with you indoors. Depression can follow and they will stop playing with you sadly.

[ianchamberlin]

@theart1rm thank you, a good tip, they do have lots of boxes, towles and blankets to keep them off the cold floor, also a good spread of hay helps too. They cope quite well, I give them extra pellet food in the winter and warm water in their bottles. They remain very active and playful, I think they are 'happy' and behaviour hasnt changed since they moved from being house rabbits.

[istheevilclown]

lovve your bunnies soooooo cute !!!!!!

[taylorSwiftmaniac76]

WOW! what kind of a rabbit is the striped and spotted one??? The other one is a dutch right???

[flashandharleyshow]

my two males are not neutered and live in seperate cages. Evertime they go near each other they try to mate. They are both definatly males!

[Morgansmash94]

They're just 'humping' each other to try and establish who's boss.

[StuftAnimalLove]

Mine actually were separated for months (since November when I got my neutered male a friend)

And today I suddenly decided it was time to bond again. After months of bonding through cage bars (which REALLY paid off) they are finnaly establishing a pecking order and our female is the alpha :)

[pinksalamander]

Man I'm jealous. I'm trying to bond my two, they just fight with each other. This is what I want!

[angelboo101]

ur bunny is sooooooo cute i like how it got that one black strip right down its back

[blobbob29]

aah the bunny is so cute the english one i mean

[CheesyPanda1]

Wow! Amazing coloring! Are they a special breed or just pure luck? Very cool!

They get along really great together! The little one reminds me of my dalmatian ahd the big one of my guinea pig.

[kithic14]

they are both so cute!

do you think two male rabbits will bond?

i already have an almost adult male dutch rabbit that looks almost exactly like yours. i want to get another one, but i don't want them to kill each other!

[ianchamberlin]

Two males could work but ive been told it easier with a male/female pair. Even if it was two males both would have to be neutered before being introduced as thier hormones would make them more aggressive.

[jofoto83]

wow, their coats are amazing. gorgeous bunnies.

[GeorgyyyC]

That bigger rabbit is beautiful! I love his colouring!

[furnetworkz]

So cute! I love bonding bunnies! They're doing so well together!

[sirius51l]

Wow.. that English Spot has AMAZING markings!

[ianchamberlin]

My two have been bonded for about 6 months now and they get along quite well, however they are constantly challenging each other for dominance, ie humping and chasing! They hacve also had to be seperated once after a proper fight,they were reintroduced following the same process and they are fine now, just make sure they always get 2 of everything!!

[aibrunst]

I'm thinking about getting another bunny to keep my other one company, so this vido helps

[ianchamberlin]

Its a hard and stessful process but rabbits are much happier with company and you'll see such a difference in your rabbits behaviour-its totally worth it!

[nretamp]

Can definitely be frustrating if it doesn't work. We got a male rabbit that was at a pet shop forever and were hoping bond him with our other male rabbit. Unfortunately it didn't work well. So I kept them separated, but so they could see each other. After a year thinking it wouldn't work, we decided to try again. No aggression this time. What should I do about letting them in each others cages/litter boxes? Think the aggression will come back?

[ianchamberlin]

Its harder with two males, a male and female pair works best generally (neutered and spayed of course!). However it can work, both males should be neutered to reduce hormones and territorial behaviour. They have to be introduced in a room neither of them have been before, if they get on you can move them into the area that theyt are going to live, you have to clean all your rooms,cages, and toys with white vinegar to remove and scent marks before hand.

[ianchamberlin]

Make sure they have lots of food (hay) to prevent fighting through cometition, two water bottles and two hay racks is a good idea and two of every toy!

Chasing, mounting and nipping is normal and good as it helps them decide who is dominant, but if they start cauing damage of lock onto each other and kick at each others bellys get them apart, a squirt of water can sometimes be a sharp shock that distracts them.

[ponygirl1224]

OMG THEY LOOK SO UNIQU

[ultimateuchiha741]

i wish i had a rabbit since it was a bunny

their cute ^.^

[pomkitten]

help me name my bunny! (video now online for suggestions)

[MerloIndiano]

beautiful black/white!

[Wiggyfrog]

our rabbit Rodderick comes out for a couple of hours each night, he has eaten 5 holes in the carpet, striped some wallpaper off and chewed through some speaker wire!!!! oh, and chewed holes in half a dozen t shirts of mine... He is such a GIT!!!!

[workerdrone93]

Yeah bunnies will do that. Thats why you need to bunny-proof your home before you get one. Its not just saving your carpet etc., you have to make it safe for the bunny.

[belgiumgirl19]

auw a dutch bunny and a papilion

[3bigbass]

It isn't a Papillon it's an English.

[belgiumgirl19]

i swear it is a pappilion

[belgiumgirl19]

lol

[greedkiller]

Im going to buy a couple of those as soon as I have a garden, love bunnies :-)

[dbskbabi94]

aww so cute the left one duz look like its wearng pants lmao!

[BerjluX]

The bunny to the left in the beginning looks like he/she has pants :D

[dbskbabi94]

hahaha it duz wow thts funi

[hcsunshine]

what a cool stripe with spots buns! The bigger buns is also cool. This is bonding them togther? I had tried to bond two adult females but they tore each other up. I am looking for home for the little one.

[Wiggyfrog]

I posted a text on here about 2 weeks ago about our rabbit Rodderick (same as bunny on the left) we now have 3 holes in the carpet. We bought a lovely rug for £40.00 to cover the holes and now he is eating that..... he's like a giant flamin moth!!! mind you he is lovely, after he's been up to no good he goes and lies down.... looks like a dead pig!!!!!

[telecaster228401]

ure comments make me laugh!

[nancyesquivel13]

i love thier fur bunnys r my favorite animal

[nickytricky123]

aww they r so cute!

[dallida]

wow

they are soooo beautiful

I loved their fur :)

[annrcks]

i love the color of them furs

[bunnyluver094]

you have a dutch and english spot and they have the most perfect markings you should really show them!!!

[elitebionic]

he/she is right, your rabbits are really good :D

[crazymike44]

Skunk bunny.. hehe...

[stevebritgimp]

Those are gorgeous bunnies. Yup, they do love climbing - sheds are very bad places to let them go if there is a counter or drawers. Had one that chewed halfway through the floor of a small hutch, from the end. Surprised they don't fight over food - very well behaved.

[Wiggyfrog]

we ve got a black and white dutch rabbit called Rodderick and he is a little shit, he has eaten 3 holes in the carpet, the pattern off the wallpaper in 2 places, 2 nice wooden boxes and various t shirts and jumpers of mine. But we still love the little twat, he is sooo naughty, but he s also very very cute and he makes us roar with laughter. When he is naughty, we squirt him with water, he still doesnt give a toss though. Good job we love him, ive told him he would make a nice pie!!!!!

[ianchamberlin]

Yeah Ivor can be a bit of a shit too, He has chewed through numerous wires and a few of my t-shirts. He is really cunning and can pretty much get into anything he wants to, we found him in the bin recently and Anna managed to get up the chimney and got soot all over my carpet.

[telecaster228401]

do rabbits chew thru thick cardboard and wires then??? cheers

[ianchamberlin]

Yes they particularly like cables. Apparently its related to natural behaviour, when they dig their burrows they will bite through tree roots that get in their way so any cables in the house get the same treatment.

[JAMESJW2006]

but we stil love him the little twat lololol

[Spocko000]

how come they aren't fighting?

[BaybieeNatNat]

I have an english spot rabbit aren't they the cutest and my frend as the dutch dwarf 1 (i think thats the breed) I luv english spots. My rabbits called Domino. I think you can guess why.

[dewhaul]

Black bottom bunny (:39-:46):Male or female? get up off your lazy arse so I can know and deal with you appropriately!!! Ok well since you wont cooperate, I'll just call you COUSIN IT for now.

(end)

[vapaarastas]

Your rabbits reminds me of my own 2 rabbits, and they just eat, eat and eat. And once again - eat. The difference between our rabbits is the size. You don't own fat rabbits, but I certainly do.

[Sonnie55]

Gorgeous dutch rabbit.  Oh my, they are too cute!

[Linuxrat]

They sure are!

They are my favorite.

[xBaoBaoPIGx]

both rabbits r so special =)

[monicasuetannehill]

they r so cute!

[silverhorse525]

Which one is the dutch and which one is the english?

[ianchamberlin]

The dutch is the one with the big black ass, English have the back stripe and the spots.

[dcmike]

he looks like watermelon. A black and white watermelon.

[etrain989]

as j\much as i like rabbit meat these are to cute to eat ^_^

[666mystery666]

BONZAI!!!!!

[shamusherba]

[verycoldice2]

[Jchap89]

[ianchamberlin]

He's called Ivor

[xxmyxchemxloverxx]

is it easy to bond to rabbits when you have had one for a while and you get a new one? w/b pweeeese!

[ianchamberlin]

Its not easy but loads of people do it, I got loads of information form the 'rabbit rehome' forum.

[animalroxanna]

they are big

[dou12bfamous]

That bunny loves its honey.

[xBABYxKx]

if you spay her she will become less violent but it will not stop. but it will become alot better. by the way u got cute bunnys :P

[majorjerkwad]

We have a female that is not spayed. We just got a male flop that is fixed. The female humps the male viciously. The male gets scared when she sniffs him and he starts thumping. Does anyone know if this behavior will stop if we spay her?

[inlacrima2013]

the big one likes sniffing the small ones ass +_+

[Monkeyman8j]

OREO!!!

[quirkyquark]

that striped one is SOOO cute!
