Rabbit Rearing
This experience will help children learn about the Life Cycle as they have the opportunity to watch as a mother rabbit rears her young over the four week program. We deliver a mother rabbit with her new born babies in a hutch designed for easy viewing.
How it works:
The mother Rabbit and her babies stay with you for four weeks. In this time you will see dramatic changes take place, from being totally dependent and hairless, to being fully furred and hopping around on their own.
We will bring all the accessories, food, bedding and cleaning equipment you will need for the 4 week period, at the end of the program we return to collect the rabbits and accessories.
At the end of your program the Bunnies are able to be purchase for $35 each, check out our Online Pet Shop for more products and accessories.
