Hey everyone! Need some opinions/advise here... I've been working with Tri Colors for several years now. Unfortunately, I've had terrible luck finding NICE reds (or even castors). I've been spinning my wheels with pet stock for years. I have nice colors but poor type. I tracked down a...

I was talking to a rabbit breeder today about the pasteurella vaccine. They personally use the one by Colorado Serum which is sold for goats, sheep & cattle. They have very healthy rabbits. I've been in there barn. Not a sniffle and they frequently show. They stated they have never had an...

Let me start out by saying I've been breeding rabbits on and off for 10 years. I'm well aware of new mom's not caring for kits but these 3 bunnies have me stumped. This happened to me last summer so I think the summer heat may have something to do with it. Then maybe the food I'm feeding...

Anyone want to help me figure out the genetics behind this guy? He's new to my barn and this is his 1st litter. Trying to decide if he will stick around to make pets. I'm thinking he is a tort who caries the chin gene? (aaB_C(chd)Ddee) His nose looks a bit smudgy to me and his red color looks...

Ok, normally a raise mini rex and I know what to expect but I've started a new side project with some tiny little dwarf crosses.... I'm totally confused on this one! Dad: Black Dutch Marked Mom: Broken Black & White Babies came out Red & Red Dutch.... I was reading a previous post that...

So for the last few years I have been feeding Manna Pro rabbit feed. LOVE that feed. My rabbits do great on it. However the price is killing me! $17 per 50lb bag. We use 2 - 4 bags a week! A year ago I tried a cheaper feed store brand... SLOWLY switched the rabbits over.... I lost almost...

I was hoping you guys could help point out some flaws in my Mini Rex. I know they are all "pet" quality but I really want to start improving the next generation. I'm actually looking for a new red buck of show quality to bring in. Trying to decide who I should retain a few females from and...

Mom is a Red & White that carries the otter gene Dad is a Magpie Dark Eyes, Ears & Nose ~ What color would this be considered? This one has dark eyes and ears but a white nose ~ What color would this be considered? Other babies were Magpies like this one:

Well this baby has me stumped .... I've only ever produced 2 other solid white Mini Rex and both had red eyes... This baby is 3 weeks old and her eyes appear dark brown in person... but with the camera they show blue hints... She is definitely not a red eyed white... Are their brown eyed...

We have had a LOT of rain the last 2 days so I have not been outside checking on the buns as much. Today I went out to check all the babies over and I found this: All other babies appear normal. This one is still be acting normal. Doesn't appear to be able to pee. It is swollen shut!!!!

We usually put our adult rabbits out into playpens in the yard a few times a week. At what age can babies go out to play in the pen too? Ours are 17 days old today and hopping around there cage. Thanks!

So I'm new to breeding mini rex bunnies and I'm trying to figure out the correct colors to call the babies we have. Mom I believe is called a Broken Red? Dad a Solid Blue? 2 babies are Broken Blacks and the other 3 I'm not sure of. One seems to have more of a red/brown tent to it with two...
