Young rabbit or adult rabbit?

I don't really know what age rabbit would be good for a first-time owner. I was hoping to rescue a pair of 6 month old rabbits but as I said in the other thread I can't get them so it looks like I'll be looking for people that want to rehome their rabbits. I've been looking for a little while (I know I've got 2 months to wait until I can get my rabbit but I still like looking ) and I've noticed there are a lot of babies (about 2/3 months old) being advertised for sale, and a few adults. Which do you think would be better for a first-time owner? I was thinking of getting an adult rabbit but I would need to get him neutered anyway, whether I got an adult or baby rabbit. I do think the babies are very cute, but I know a lot of babies get rehomed more quickly than the adults, but then I don't know if an adult rabbit would be quite set in his ways, and if he was a bit aggressive I wouldn't want him to stay aggressive, but then if I got a baby and went wrong somewhere and he became aggressive then it would be all my fault. Sorry for a rambling thread and more questions What do you think? Adult or baby rabbit?

if you go to a good rescue, they should be neutered already, so that sorts that one! For outside living, I don't think it matters too much, for indoor living, I would go with an adult first timer, small buns can be very destructive indoors and drive you and your wallet round the twist - we have a fully bunny proofed home and Stuart has already cost us about £150 in replacement wires and power supplies - not as bunny proofed as we thought

Any intelligent animal can be re-trained, as it were. But you'd need to do your research into behaviour etc to do this. I suggest that rather than think about all the possibilities of what your prospective bun mill be like, when you're ready to adopt, speak to the rescue and tell them what you'd like. They know their rabbits, and will be able to match you up well, even if they don't have the right bun for you at the time. It's a lot better, in my opinion, to know what you're taking on board with an adult, than a baby, who could have mental or physical complications that have yet to materialise, esp. for a new owner

Id go for an adult bun, but like Jay said - see if you can find out a little about their personality first.

If they are aggressive it could be that they just need someone to love them and look after them properly, and you could be the person to turn their lives around.

Unfortunately the rescues near me won't rehome to me because of the run problem, although I have spoken to a few rabbit owners who think the way I plan to exercise my rabbit (slightly smaller run during the day then all evening in the unheated utility room) would be ok.
Thank you for your help, I agree that an adult would be best. I may have already found one. He's 18 months old and his owner has said if I like him she's happy for me to get him in April. She's sent me photos and he is so cute, his name is Merlin

My Hazel is around 2 or 3 and of all my buns, she is the calmest and was the perfect rabbit for a first time owner like me. It may just be her temperment but with an adult their charecter is already set so you know what you are getting. Babies are cute but I'm chuffed with my adult and teenagers! Glad you have found one! Just need to neuter him and find him a buddy!
Could the current owner take him to the vets for his neuter if you pay for it now? Then perhaps you could find a female in the mean time and rehome them together in neutral territory as their home would be new to both of them? I'm sure thats how I got away with bonding my trio, I got them in a short space of time. Just an idea

[b]I hope whatever you decide that it all goes well and like me you get as mutch out of the bunns as they get out of you.

I'd agree with everyone else! Whilst babys are cute, they get older quick and adults are super cute too ^_^....Vince the bunny that's a brilliant idea! Would save time and help with bonding if you find a lady bun Good luck x

Have you tried Furry Friends, that's where I got KK from on Saturday and they have lots of lovely bunnies waiting for a forever home

Thank you for the help I have now found an adult bunny and I will get him a friend as soon as possible
