Rabbits Well it is nearly Easter. And as children we all knew the Easter rabbit brought our chocolate eggs.
The Easter bunny originated from pre Christian times it has a place in fertility lore as both hare’s and rabbits bred profusely. The Easter bunny seems to have originated in Germany first mentioned in 1500s. The first edible bunny was a pastry and sugar bunny from Germany in the 1800s.

As a child I had pet rabbits I used to love and care for my rabbits at one stage we had one who lived happily with a guinea pig as a cage mate. I used to pet and play with my rabbit a lot she was very tame would let me pick her up. And if I let her out of her cage she would come running back to me when I called .I frequently took her for walks around the village in my old dolls pram. Rabbits get very tame if you give them a lot of attention.

At one stage we had 2 rabbits and they had babies this was great fun to watch them growing. We gave all except one baby away. I think it was this one that I used to take for walks in my dolls pram when the older rabbits died I cannot remember clearly it was 40 years or more ago.

We had a rabbit as a pet when my daughter was young, it was a female we borrowed a friends boy rabbit for a while so we could have babies, I am a great believer in pets and pets having babies. For children to learn a little of sex education and to learn how to care for small things and to watch the developing animals.

There are many pet rabbit breeds. Dwarf rabbits; lop eared rabbits, giant rabbits, angora rabbits, and so many different varieties.

Rabbits are crepuscular sleeping in the day and at night being active early morning and late afternoon/evening time
