When buying a rabbit
Signs of a bored, lonely, frustrated rabbit are often evident in its hutch - it will have chew marks! When buying a rabbit its a good idea to look for these things and handling other rabbits that belong to the breeder. Signs of Illness/Pain Rabbits can't tell you when they are not feeling well and being prey animals will hide illness as much as possible. Signs of pain/illness can be almost unnoticeable. If there is any change in your rabbits behaviour it is worth a visit to the vets. A usually tame and content rabbit won't suddenly become aggressive without reason.

SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR BUNNIES!!!
General health checks
Genitals- Private parts should not be private!
When you buy a baby bunny (no younger than eight weeks old) The breeder should have been correctly handling the bunny enough so that it is acustomed to having its privates inspected.
