I've seen a few folks use this and it seems to work quite well.

Bigfoot and I talked about this in another thread. I didn't want to spend $50+ dollars for a piece of metal for the cervical dislocation. So I opted to use a pellet rifle. I have three pellet rifles, a Crosman 760 Pump Master, Bear River Sportsman 900 and a Beeman X2 Kodiak Silver Dual...

Wanted to get back with you and say thank you. I ordered from the company in your link. Looking forward to getting them and setting them up.

Dispatched the kindle this morning. I used a Crosman Pumpmaster 760 with Crosman Destroyer .177 caliber pellets. This rifle can be pumped up to 10 times with a minimum of 3 pumps. I chose 8 pumps and it delivered an instantaneous kill each time. There was the expected twitching and kicking...

I'll work on it :) He's about twice the size of our other buck (the mini) and from what I've read the Altex get to size pretty quickly. So the next kindle should be larger in the same amount of time.

I've been using a Mini Lop as my buck. I've had three kindles from him (only one success due to first time does). But as I've read more and gained experience from you folks I've decided to get another buck for breeding. Today I got a NZ/Altex mix. He's all white, 6 months old and 8-10 lbs...

I like the two weeks apart from each other. That would be much easier when it's time to dispatch and process as you mentioned. I'll give this a go and see how well it works. I'll keep in mind that one doe had a first kindle of two still borns and the other will be a first timer. But the...

Thank you. I'm looking at next week so we'll see how well it goes. I have two pellet rifles so I'll have the second one ready to go just in case there is a problem with the first one. I don't anticipate a problem though. These rifles are capable of 600-800 fps and cleanly dispatching small...

I've had much success with tile. I had some left over from tiling my son's room so it found it's way into each cage. 24x12 so they can stretch out if they like but doesn't take up the whole cage.

Good question that I don't have an answer to at this moment. My son and I built a PVC tractor yesterday that is 6x4 and 3 feet tall. At the moment I'm using it give the rabbits a break out of the cages. I put the 9 week old buns in this morning for a few hours. Now I've got one of the does...

Okay, I'd like to see some opinions on a breeding schedule. Here's my set up to provide a background: I have two English Lop does that are quite large and are 8 1/2 months old. I have one NZ/California doe that is about 5 1/2 months old. One English Lop doe had one unsuccessful kindle a...

Appreciate it. :) So I'm thinking that the best spot, from what I've read and watched, is on top of the head just behind the ears and angled downward towards the jaw? Sound about right?

Thank you for the link. Very nice pic of your tractor. :) I'm wondering if I would have a problem. When I split up the buns into another cage from the mama doe I had two of them escape one night. Small opening in a corner of the door I didn't account for and two of the four decided to...

Here's what I've got on hand at the moment: Crosman .177 7.4 grain pointed. Crosman .177 7.9 grain Destroyer EX Crosman .177 7.9 grain Hollow Point I have both a Crosman 760 Pumpmaster and Bear River Sportsman 900. YT has video of varmints being taken with the Crosman 760 Pumpmaster which...
