You can see my set up under my barn on my website - www.allearsrabbitry.com.

I don't do much. I feed Templeton and a grain mix (oats, flax seed, wheat germ, a could other things lol) on a regular basis. I keep them groomed (I have fuzzy lops mostly) but my sr's all pretty much just get a once a week once over - I could seriously go indefinately without grooming them. I...

You said your rabbit has about 50% grey to 50% white. That is a broken. A Charlie has very little color, less then 10% as stated. I have had light patterned brokens I thought were charlies as they came from brokenXbroken breedings but when bred to solids I got all solid. Go figure. Blue eyes are...

Is it the 29th - 2nd for sure for 2011? I am trying to finish up the catalog for my clubs Jan show and need the dates to finish. I heard 2012 will be in Whichita? Confirmed yet? Trying to convince my hubby to go. He said if I ever put a rabbit on a plane and flew for a "show" he would...

I like pals - they are not rare in my area. I think the local fair typically has about 20-25 (with about 400-450 rabbits). I do know the breeder here that really promoted them is selling out. I came close to buying a trio but decided not to. Didn't realize they were rare, that would have changed...

8 weeks in California - I found out because they changed the age and it was in the newspaper - it stated "It is illegal to sell any dog, cat, rabbit or other small mammal, other then for food purposes, under the age of 8 weeks" or something similar. I think it lists it on the zoning laws and our...

20 per property? What if you have 20 acres? We have no limit on rabbits or poultry but a/c can and will interfere so I keep numbers down - 40 holes for rabbits kept in an inclosed barn, no chickens or poultry as of yet but we plan on keeping maybe 6-8 hens (no rooster). I have businesses behind...

We pay for an extra garbage can and the droppings go into that. The can stays out by the barn because the horse waste goes into it too. Not sure what we'll do when we get another horse - wonder if that can go in green waste? We only have an acre so usually have room in the green can. Hmm...

I pay attention. I have an acre, not much to most but where I live an acre is a not a lot - 5 acres would be a lot, so an acre is nice. Now, if I had my way, the county would sell me the acre and a half lot next to me, but we don't always get our way. Anyway, before we bought the property I...

I have 45 holes, all KW stackers. Mostly 36x24 and 24x24 with a few 18x24 for jr fuzzies mostly (grow out holes). I had a friend that made her own stacking type units. She cemented fence posts in the ground and attatched hanging units to that. She did 36x24x18 hanging units, 3 per level. She...

I am surprised that Pals make the list. At our fair last year there were at least 20, maybe more.... We only have 11 breeds (I think it is) that get their own class at the fair (we have "all other heavyweights" and "all other lightweights" too). I actually can get my hand on some blue Americans...

I have cavies for a while - not a huge fan. Honestly, I'd rather (and do) have rats. The most important thing with cavies is to give them extra vit c. No matter how good of a food you give and how many veggies, I would still give extra c. Tried the whole "natural" way with just the formulated...

I no longer raise Hollands but when I did I usually chose who I would grow out between 5 and 7 weeks. At 8 weeks, mine hit the uglies and I didn't look at them again until 16 weeks. Also, once they turn sr, Holland (and AFL really) bucks are better after a year and a half, 2 years - they need...

I am too cheap to pay someone to do my website. It would be better if I could, but I enjoy updating and what not. I would rather pay someone to take pictures - I AM HORRIBLE. My rabbits are much, much nicer in person. Anyway, I do not like free sites. I currently use a free site (freewebs) for...

The reason why white toenails are a dq in solid rabbits in an ARBA show is because that's what the standard calls for - lol. I breed for matching toenails even in my brokens, not everyone does, but my fear is if I stop breeding brokens then the solids will pop up with mismatched nails. Could...
