    Figuring out new genetics

    You guys were so helpful when we first started out (back in 2012!) We had our genetics all figured out. Then we had some strays show up (true rabbit math! They showed up in my yard). After quarantine, they were added to our stock. We now have some interesting things showing up that I am...

    Help (Grumpy) - planning my auto waterer system

    I already have a pcv cutter due to doing irrigation for my garden. I am familiar with working with it. I have thoroughly studied your tutorial, just had questions on my specific application. Thanks for taking a look! So all cages on one level and then turn down to next level, then next...

    Wanted Rabbit Pelts

    I have a freezer full of pelts. Not sure what all is in there. I raise meat mutts and satins. My son is a trapper (just finished the fur sale this weekend) so throwing them on a stretcher and drying them is no problem. We'll just have to thaw them out. Not sure what all I have in there, but...

    Help (Grumpy) - planning my auto waterer system

    Thank you for your thoughts! I understand what you are saying about the pipes. The thing is, the cages are hung by two pieces of conduit that are just stuck through the cage wire and set on top of the stand frame. In order to remove a cage (for cleaning or repairs) all I have to do is remove...

    Help (Grumpy) - planning my auto waterer system

    How would you suggest I run my system lines? Here is a mock up of my rabbitry (I'm switching over to all wire cages, but they will still be stacked - 30 holes). It is 15'x17.5'. I want the lines to be at the back of the cages like yours. I just don't know how to effectively hit all these...

    An oops litter with a new buck

    Ruby has. Thumper is still around, but we only get the shaded or palomino color (unless we put him with a torte, then we get torte's too) out of him. Our original does were chestnut agouti. Ruby and Thumper were stock we bought. <br /><br /> __________ Wed Nov 18, 2015 10:47 am __________ <br...

    Odds & Ends...Bits & Pieces Both racks installed.

    Can you post some more info on your straw rack? Specifically the removable boards for the front? I thought I had seen a post where you explained it more, but I can't find it now. I want to use this for my bale of hay because it fits better in my space than the hay one you built :) Thanks so...

    Feed storage bin construction

    What is the bait your are using? We are having a real problem right now. We are trying to get the stray cat that has adopted us to handle it, but he doesn't like being in the rabbitry. I am scared of poisoning the mice since we also have a dog that likes them. I don't want to kill my pets...

    Fetal kits and full term in one litter. GRAPHIC pics.

    I had a grow-out doe do something similar a couple of weeks ago, but I'm sure hers was two pregnancies. We had a buck (that loves the babies and grow-outs, he mopes without friends) in with the whole group. The doe decided to sexually mature early and got pregnant. I never saw them breed, but...

    Re: *scratching my head* Huh? *We have another one!*

    His markings now look much more like dutch. Not clean lines, more like it is blended on his body. And he is a he lol He is still an absolute sweetheart, answers to "baby", and comes when called. He likes to be held, and my autistic son often gets him out to carry around and cuddle with. I...

    (Dood) Clip on nest boxes

    Are you still using them? How do they work? Well I hope. What did you use for hooks? What size did you make them? Do they lock on somehow? Thanks so much!

    (Dood) Clip on nest boxes

    I found an old thread about them, but nothing new. I am looking at forward nest boxes when I go to smaller cages. Right now we have doe cages with an attached den. We are reworking everything and going to 24"x30" cages. I really like the idea of adding a nest box onto the front so that the...

    Is this vent disease?

    No idea. I have NO history on her. She has been roaming the neighborhood for a month. Our neighbor's thought is was one of ours and alerted us. We were able to catch her the other day. I looked her over real well and then put her in quarantine. She went riht for the pellets and water...

    Is this vent disease?

    Three years in, and I have an unknown issue. I have never dealt with this, but her vent looks funny to me. I seems swollen. Ignore the shavings on her fur. It's just the bedding in the quarantine cage. First picture is with her just flipped. My other does, you actually have to look for...
