They are in hutches that are hald wood boxes and half cages.They are outdoors off the ground. No there are no other animals re-infecting the heard..I have dogs but they dont have any mite issues and they are fenced in and a minimun of 75 feet away from the rabbits..Out of sight out of mind sort...

Are they the same thing? I have been battling these ear mites all summer. They will not go away..Were treating with everything from mineral oil to tea tree oil all while constantly cleaning cages....It seems to slow them but then they are back within 2 weeks..I was told a product called...

That sure was a handsome Rabbit. The abscess was huge. The Gallbladder looked good to me..

lol I have one like that too..I have to poke the bugger to be sure he is still living...

lol funny..Cabbit. to the OP yes that identity theft for sure!..

I would use cages to house the Rabbits and use the tractor for daily exercise. I wouldnt be able to sleep at night knowing my animals are on the ground all night. They can be spooked so easily on the ground. I have a friend that had rabbits outside in a tractor made of plywood. He came out to...

use 3 inch pvc or abs pipe as legs to get your cages off the ground. As for the tractor, that sounds like a great idea. I would also use some tent pegs to nail it down to the ground when in use

sorry to hear that happened...you did the right thing.

here are the sausages we made!! yummy

oneacrefarm, have you seen the video we are refering to? There is lots of meat thats great for grinding up into sausage. Go back and review the video. He has the right idea. He wants to save the hind quarters for whatever and use the rest for grinding. Makes perfect sense to me..

When we did it his way it took allot longer but as I said earlier you use all the rabbit his way. We were getting a little over 3 pounds of meat doing it that way. so if you did 10 rabbits that 30 pounds throw in another 5 or 6 pounds of pork or beef and you have 35 pounds of sausage or burgers...

We do it ..it very enjoyable. Deboneing is easy once you get the hang of it.Sausages are just as easy as with the venison. Try a 80% Rabbit 20% regular ground beef mix for burgers and meat balls too! Watch this video on how to debone your rabbit..This is the best way IMO as you use all the...

wow Maggie, I had never actually thought of that..What a horrible thought. We also run a reputable renovations business from the same address..We wouldn't be that difficult to find with info like that on my video. A big thank-you for the heads up..Sure have to think smart on the net these...

lol you too eh..Adult ADD that is. to the OP yes that is much neater..Looks feasible to me, I just wouldn't count on those numbers.

Yes wear gloves. Yikes.. the thng with culling a "proven" buck is they are hard to get back. Leather work gloves may be in order. If not you may want to go ahead and cull anyway. Good luck either way you decide to go..I just got bit 3 days ago. It was my buck too. He bit so hard that when I...
