Rabbits do not need any vaccinations and they never need to be groomed because they groom themselves. They do need to have their nails clipped, and you have to check their teeth to make sure they are not overgrown. Of course you have to take them to the vet if they get sick. Diarrhea is really bad for rabbits and they can get that from an improper diet, the vet can give medication for diahrea.

They should go to the vet for a typical check up. They do not need any shot/vaccinations. Only if something is wrong with them would they need a shot.
If you do not want more bunnies, get them fixed.
Its also a good idea to get them fixed for males, it calms aggression and stops them from spraying.
For females, it reduces the risk of cervical/ovarian cancer which is most likely to occur in unspayed bunnies, something like over 80%.
You need to just make sure to clip their nail regularly and make sure their teeth are coming in straight and not too long.

Rabbits need to be vaccinated against myxomatosis and VHD (viral haemorrhagic disease). You don't want you bunny catching, or spreading, either of these fatal diseases.
The vet will also be able to check your bunny's general health, and will have a lot of useful advice for you as a first time owner - rabbit nutrition is a tricky and important subject if you don't already know!

basically call and ask. that's going to in undemanding words take a couple of minutes and they can grant you with a precise value. human beings right here stay in diverse provinces and bypass to diverse vets. So the in undemanding words thanks to get a sturdy estimate is to call the vet. best of success. P.S. I called the vet after I were given my first bunny and they actually suggested now to not get pictures for them. It isnt mandatory.
