Question
What is the age that baby rabbit get off their mothers milk ?

Answer
Hi Samantha

A baby rabbit should be weaned at 8 weeks old.  They don't develop their necessary stomach bacteria until 7 - 8 weeks.  They may not seem to be nursing after 4 or 5 weeks but if you watch them closely they will sneak up and grab a drink here and there.

Good luck and if you have any more questions please let me know.
