At approximately 2 to 3 weeks of age and about fist size baby rabbits can jump out of nest. At about 4 weeks the nest should be taken away. At about 8 weeks the mother should be removed from the litter and the babies are now ready to be re-homed.

Baby rabbits are called "kits". Normally, by ten days of age, the kits will have opened their eyes. By 20 days of age they will be very active and roaming from the next. They shouldn't be handled while they're small. Their care is best left to their mother.
