    Rabbit Manure For Yard?

    Just curious if anyone has ever done this and how they went about spreading it? I plan to go Bermuda this year because of the brutal summers down in southern Missouri (hate to see the poor bastards in Arkansas this year) and we will be under water restrictions in the next year or so I wager so...

    Rabbit Fur Removal / Hide Chew?

    I'm not using the fur atm for any projects and I have 18 healthy little campers ready to go to camp and I heard you can use the hide for chews for dogs. I'm curious the best way to go about this, such as a easy way to remove the fur and if I need to flesh like with tanning? I figured I would rub...

    Realistic Price For Pelts

    Just need a little bit of info from you veterans, if I was to sell pure white and pure black hides finished what would I realistically get in price? By finished I mean either A)tanned,stretched,cleaned, and oiled or B) just tanned and allowed to dry hard. I was thinking of selling to purchase...

    ID the lineage?

    I got a bit of a shock on this last little pack of buns and I think my cali buck has some silvefox in him (his first round in the ring). Forgive the camera....its old and the internal clock is broken lol. I got this one from a NZB doe/Cali buck (4 liters were all black NZW kits till this one)...

    Aluminum Sulfate Question

    So I called the only leather shop in my area and the girl had ZERO clue what I was asking for, after I explained it she only had chemical (over priced) stuff for the process. Online its a good price but shipping normally kills the deal but I did find this, http://www.acehardwaresuperstore.com/17...

    Rabbits Dying in Nest Box (immediate issue)

    I think this one is my fault but I cleaned the nest box (litter is 7 days) and there was very little hair that wasn't soiled so I doubled down on the hay in the box to compensate. This is a first time mom so she didn't pull any more hair and I need a common material I could put in to aid the...

    Tanning/Fur Blanket Question

    I was told you could tan ANY animal simply by using its brains and that every animal had the "perfect" amount of brain to tan the entire animal. Is this true and is there a detailed guide as to the entire process out there? I like the idea of free tanning as its safe,natural, and most...

    Cancer or Tumor?

    So I went to breed my little Sasha (second time) today and without ANY heads up she bites me and hard, thankfully I wear welding gloves to handle so I quickly went to go my butcher set ready. I don't tolerate a biting rabbit and my breeder told me when I first started NEVER to keep a rabbit that...

    Buck Upset?

    I got a beautiful cali doe from my NZW/NZW liter and today was her first day to breed. I put her in with my new cali buck in the hopes id get lucky but when he failed I put in with my stud. He tried his best but she wouldn't lift so I took her out of the cage and as I was doing so he was making...

    Possible health concern

    I pulled a stupid about a week ago now and I mucked my pens out without a mask on, my new pens have a LOT more air flow so it went air born and I took some in for over a hour. About 3 hours after I was short of breath and 8 hours after I was non-stop sneezing for 30 minutes and coughing...

    Max Rabbit Jump?

    I have NZW and Californian rabbits and I want to make a little 10x10x10 area to let my rabbits run in and for future breeding, but I am curious how high can these buggers jump? I know for a fact they can hit 3FT as I seen them kick the top of my cages before...I was thinking some cheap chain...

    Cold Kit Question

    So I sort of dropped the ball today, my doe birthed one kit and I thought she was done, well 6 hours later she gave birth to the other 8. As some of you know I use ice blocks and tile to keep my rabbits cool, well the little guys crawled under it and two died :( Total kits = 9, 2 died from ice...

    How to Pick Up Rabbits?

    I started a few months ago raising rabbits, I had a rough road but I am finally starting to see some progress but one thing eludes me. My doe doesn't like to be handled regardless of how much interaction I give her. My problem is point A to B (her cage to bucks) and B to A, normally she is...
