It is always a balancing act isn't it, work on fixing one thing and another thing pops up. :)

I will try to get some this evening. When I flip her over she pulls her feet very close together in the back but they are parallel to each other. She is more then likely a bit narrow. I was excited because her shoulders didn't look to long, but pinched hips aren't good either.

This is a rex doe approximately 2 months old. I would appreciate any opinions on her regarding confirmation and type. She was not posing very well so I apologize ahead of time. Thank you ahead of time for any input!

I hope I am posting this in the correct part of the forum. I am hoping to get some insight from other breeders. What would you do? So long story short I have been line breeding a nice line of rexes for a number of generations now. The positives of this line is they have nice coats, pretty...

Heat composting is easy to do too you just need a big enough pile to get it going. I am not sure if we are allowed to recommend books here, so please delete if I am breaking any rules, but the book "Let it Rot!: The Gardener's Guide to Composting" is an outstanding book on learning the process...

I wonder if the lilac tips are just harder to see so there maybe is three bands but they aren't as noticeable..... thanks

In rex rabbits is the genetic combo for amber (chocolate agouti) A_bbC_D_E_ and the combo for Lynx (lilac agouti) A_bbC_ddE_? And if this is the case why does the lynx not have three distinct bands like the other agouti color combinations? Or am I completely misunderstanding what amber and...

Thank you, I will definitely check out her page. I have some Ivermectin so that won't be hard to add.

Thank you so much for the responses. I will be interested to find out how the garlic treatment works, so I hope you continue posting your findings michaels4gardens. I started treating everyone else in the barn with Safe-guard, if nothing else, in hopes that I can clear any active cases that...

Hi All, I have a kit that I am very highly suspicious of having E. cuniculi based on an eye that looks like it is growing a cataract on it and an out of the blue weak hind leg. If I am understanding correctly this kit most likely got it from mom as she is only 2 and a half months old. So...

Sorry I stated that poorly. The kits from the REW carrying Steel ended up being non extension with an Ese and ended up looking like a self black with slight ticking here and there. Original statement: Could the doe be a non extension steel. For example I had a REW that was genetically...

I am very excited for you and I can certainly relate. We are trying to make this move within our household. We now raise our own bees, rabbits, and laying hens along with tending many gardens. I think it is very exciting that, even if on a small scale, more people make this move (or at least...

That is a neat automatic watering idea.... off to the recycle bin to find bits for an experiment......

Congrats! You have some very beautiful rabbits.

Could it be Opal but Wideband? I know that that can mess with the rings on an agouti.
