It's most likely because people only want to pay to have the baby rabbits. You should have more luck advertising them as free to a good home.

This is the problem of rabbit breeding (for pets). there are too many breeders - breeding rabbits is very easy, and the rate at which they multiply make them non-profitable for resale as pets. Now as food... that is a whole other story. You will not be able to sell them - you MIGHT be able to give them away. But then you run into problems of people thinking a rabbit is cute and adorable and they end up taking one, then discovering all of the work that rabbits require and then... too often the rabbit is dumped in my front yard (or in the farmlands in general) where the people think that the rabbit will live happily ever after in the bountiful farmlands. Easter Time many pet rabbits are sold. A month later we end up with a rabbit problem around here. Happens every year I can set my clock by it. You might have to get in contact with the local SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) and ask if they have or know of adoption programs for rabbits. The Dog pound (Animal control) would be the next place to call. They might have a program or know of a program that deals with rabbits.

Because there is a glut of too many pet rabbits. People don't need them. And so many people don't know how to take care of them and let their rabbits have kits and then what do they do with them? Too many rabbits. And rarely does anyone spay or neuter them. And unless you are willing to let them go for someone's dinner or as snake food, do not offer them for free. Sorry to have to say that, but it's true.

Maybe you could avoid abbreviations and use standard English in your ads. Why do you want to sell them anyway? You could also just give them away, as long as you find good carers.
