    Not sure if you would call this a colony?

    Thanks MSD for your assistance! It looks like I have got it right this time :) I will quote the bit in that paragraph that concerned me akane. I'm not wanting to treat my pet doe's like that akane, that's all :(

    __________ Fri Apr 10, 2015 7:31 pm __________ Sorry I tried to do a quote & the whole page came out! I'm still learning to use the site! ***I fixed it for you. --MSD I wanted to quote the second paragraph by Miss M "Breeding can happen within seconds" etc. I certainly wouldn't want...

    Not sure if you would call this a colony?

    I have some with brown eyes & I'm trying to get blue eyes going. So depending on results, I may keep a couple of the does for blue eye purposes & I would sell the rest of the kits. I tend to sell them within 2 to 3 days of advertising them online. So they are intended as pets. Often other...

    Not sure if you would call this a colony?

    Hi, I have posted in a different section of the forum on my topic, so the post may sound familiar. I thought I would try this section & see what others may have to say. I have 3 puppy pen wire enclosures in the house with me, each in a rectangular shape with the back of each pen against...

    Update On My Mini Lop Couples!

    Thank you for your kind wishes & yes it certainly would be nice if the 3rd doe surprises me :) My Mini Lops are various colours & just my indoor pets. I have been careful in my pairings to hopefully get the colour results that I would prefer. That 3rd doe is a blue eyed white, that I...

    Update On My Mini Lop Couples!

    Hi, I thought I would update you on the progress of my 3 Mini Lop couples! :campfire: Although I didn't actually see one mating between all 3 couples in the 2 & 3 weeks that each buck & doe were in the same enclosure together, I...

    Keeping doe & buck together, in hope of good litter results

    Decided to go with plan B, which I feel will be safer for both the does & their kits. All 3 pens lined up against each other, but separate. No need to worry Marinea, as I will not keep the pairs together any longer than 3 weeks & less if any aggression starts to show. I figure at that stage...

    Keeping doe & buck together, in hope of good litter results

    I have a plan B that I am pondering after reading what Syberchick70, Zinnia & MamaSheepdog had to say in particular :thinking: The 3 enclosures I have the pairs in are metal puppy pens, that join each panel together with a long rod. So I have them all in a row at the moment, all...

    Keeping doe & buck together, in hope of good litter results

    Thank you everybody for your input :campfire: All the different opinions are very interesting & have certainly given me plenty to ponder. More replies are quite welcome :all-ears: From what I have read from all your helpful replies, I think what I will do is keep my pairs in pairs...

    Keeping doe & buck together, in hope of good litter results

    Hi bunny lovers, I have 3 seperate enclosures in the house with me with my Mini Lops in them. I am trying to breed my 3 does with my 3 bucks. So I have a doe & a buck together in each enclosure. I read on here that you can keep the buck & doe together for a week or...

    Loving there treats in the morning.. pic

    I have 4 Mini Lops. I give mine a piece of carrot each every day & they love it :) It's good for keeping their teeth the right length too :bunnyhop: I've made willow balls for them before too, from the branches of a willow tree & they loved that also, but they broke down the balls...

    Nesting

    I'm no expert, but I think day 12 is too early & she may need re-mating.

    Doe having first litter & messing all over the floor

    My doe had her kits in the cleaned out litter tray, that I fixed up for her this morning. All is going well so far. I haven't touched the nest yet. It looks like there may be 4 or 5 little ones in there. I have given her another litter tray with litter in it, to do her urine & droppings in. The...

    Doe having first litter & messing all over the floor

    Thank you both for your replies! You are both right about the nest box & the poop! This morning she is intending to use the litter tray as a nest box, despite having a really good nest box in her enclosure, which is nice & large & clean. I moved it away from the wall a little to give her the...

    Doe having first litter & messing all over the floor

    I have an indoor Lop doe, that is now 7 months old & is due to have her first litter any time now. For the past week, she has been doing her wee all over the linoleum flooring in her enclosure, instead of in the litter box like she usually does. I don't understand why she is doing this & I keep...
