        Hi everyone! Since some of you were keen to keep up to date with Baby’s growth, I thought I’d start a thread on here and upload regular pics  

        Here is Baby the first night we got him, Friday 31st;

        And a couple of pictures from tonight;

        Love Anna, Barney, Belle and Baby x

          Yay! Thanks for going to the hassle of getting out the tape measure. I look forward to watching him grow. He’s so small at the moment.

              I second Yay! Really great to get the chance to watch him grow.

              My goodness, he’s cute! I don’t understand how those ears can withstand gravity.

                He’s so tiny and squeezy!!! I don’t understand the ears either … but often he flops and I wonder whether he flops when the gravitational pull of his ears gets too great he he

                  I’m so excited for this thread! It’s going to be fun to see him grow up, especially since he’s so small right now. It’ll also be nice for you to be able to look back and see exactly how tiny he used to be.

                  He’s so flipping cute!

                      Beautiful !

                      Barney looks amazing too, Anna! I know it takes some work to keep him looking that way.

                          Baby is adorable!
                          That tail looks pretty hefty, too! He’s all ears and tail!

                            Way too cute! So how big can a Giant get anyways? How many lbs of adorable are we talking here?

                              I absolutely love this thread! So looking forward to watching Baby grow…I love big buns, but since I have a Holland Lop, I’m going to live vicariously through you. How big are your other buns? I have a feeling they’re going to be surprised when Baby outgrows them!

                                LittlePuffyTail IDK about a continental giant, but my Flemish is about 18-20 pounds. ((Depending on the season. I’ve noticed he eats more in the winter, and less in the summer.))

                                  She must be busy cleaning and feeding the giant ha ha ha. I think I read they can get to be 30 lbs and go through a bale of hay a week. But then I read that about flemmies once and thought it was true but I guess they were kidding

                                            I’m not sure if I could ever handle such a huge rabbit, and I like them big! But I’m just so dying to know where you got her from. Is she really going to get to the point that she’ll eat a bale of hay in a week? That sounds nuts and I feel like a fool even asking, but I thought I read something like that. I am soooo curious about details and you obviously are a busy person, so I don’t know if you’ll have much time to respond but if you ever do, I’m following this thread, though I’m not really on BB anymore. You are living a dream of mine that I don’t think I want to follow up on anymore, because I think they are just more rabbit than I can handle. But it keeps coming into my head that maybe some day………

                                              He is soooooo cute. I can’t handle it.

                                              He’s starting his nanner addiction early. LOL

                                                Megabunny – I will definitely keep you updated on his eating habits and size, I got him from a breeder so he is pedigree or whatever … not that I care, he just so happens to be! He does eat a fair amount of hay but not THAT much, then again I have horses so might be biased! x

                                                  Now I know where you store all her hay! I’ll be watching. Thanks!
