Rabbits offered for sale should be separated by sex with males (bucks) in one cage and females (does) in another. If they are not and/or the seller cannot guarantee the sex of any rabbit there is the risk that any rabbit purchased may be pregnant and so is best avoided.

When selecting a rabbit, all the rabbits in the cage should first be inspected as if one rabbit appears ill the others may also be at risk of being ill so it is best to look elsewhere. The cages themselves should be clean and not overcrowded and the rabbits should have access to food and water. Any droppings in the cage should be firm and not runny.

The rabbits should be in a good healthy condition ie bright eyed and alert when awake, with a firm body and clean coat and showing no signs of runny or sticky eyes, runny nose, sneezing, wet or dirty bottom, matted fur or lethargy.

Rabbits offered for sale should not be less than 6 weeks of age.
