How To Do Just About Everything
rabbits are not naturally likely to come when called or learn to respond to a name, but with some work on your behalf you can train a rabbit to respond to its name when called. in the video i am working with a subject named dax.
If you can, pick up and play with the rabbit daily, when it is still young, preferably before it has been weaned from its mother. This is important to prevent it from fearing people later in life. When you are playing with it call it by the name you have chosen. This will help to get it to know its name.
now you have to bribe it. the best way to bribe your rabbit is to give it food. most rabbits have a favorite food. fresh grass is always good, but corn on the cob, carrots, sweet potatoes, Homegrown lettuce (not store bought), or even kudzu or blackberry vines(yes, they eat them thorns and all) are all favorites. call out your rabbits name while holding the food. give it to him and say his name even more when he eats.
Now after a week or too of giving him food for coming to his name, also try just petting him. Most rabbits like back petting the most. soon you will have a rabbit that comes when called!
