On the episode I saw there were WAY more than 30 rabbits. The house was filled with them, every surface covered. The woman had actually moved into a travel trailer next to the house, and then proceeded to fill it with free range rabbits as well. It was freaking disgusting. Everyone and...

Has anyone used the vinyl coated wire flooring? I know Bass and Klubertanz sell it, just curious about using it for the floors. Seems like it'd be easier to clean and perhaps easier on the feet. I have an old 30x36 cage in need of a new floor and was thinking of giving it a go but thought I'd...

"Rabbits kick and scratch when they're picked up." When they're being picked up wrong by kids intent on putting doll clothes on them, then I'm going to have to say, yes, yes they do. :D

For me the only real con was mold issues and it's a bit of a pain in the butt. Pros were the kits loved it, and I didn't see any digestive upsets when they had fodder as a first feed, vs the occasional messy butt from the ones going straight to pellets. The rabbits went wild for it. Cost was...

Several of mine dearly love toilet paper tubes. They throw them around the cages for hours.

I am looking to connect with Cinnamon and/or Blanc de Hotot breeders who will be at the ARBA's National Show in Fort Worth, TX this November. Thought I would start my looking around now well in advance. :)

When I was raising goats I named them in accordance with the year. The registry assigned a letter to every year for registration and tattooing purposes, skipping O because it looks too much like 0. They've restarted the letters so 2012 is B. So my 2012 goats would have been named Betty, Babs...

I cleared my browser cache, reloaded, and the problem cleared up. :)

We had some friends have a similar issue. They have a bit of property that is remote and pretty well secluded from view. One day the wife went out to pick up some firewood and found someone had hauled in a singlewide trailer and set up house. They pulled out a fake deed and bill of sale for the...

Over the holidays when whole turkey was .59 a pound we bought 6 and split them all up (wings, legs, sliced breast, ground meat) to vac seal and freeze. I took the leftover carcasses and made turkey stock which I later canned. It NEVER gelled up. None of my broth ever has. I don't get what I'm...

Not really, but when you build your fence and pens, do it right the first time. Don't go easy on it thinking you'll save money, because once one figures a way out, it's game over. You'll spend the rest of your goat owning life patching holes and trying to predict the next place they'll try to...

Even after all these years I'm terrible at sexing kits. Over the summer I had a litter that I retained one doe from, a gorgeous baby that I wanted to use as a replacement for her mother since mama was getting up in years. That doe grew like mad, and was just lovely. It wasn't until she sat up to...

Lauren Rascher has some top notch Champagnes and she's in Grapeland, which is about an hour and a half south of you. If you're on Facebook, she's a member of the Champange page. https://www.facebook.com/groups/282895438427395/ __

LOL I saw RT and thought, she's having nightmares about retweeting? Twitter nightmares, heh.

If you were looking at the Nigerians because they were small, you might check into Kinders. They're basically a cross between Nubians and Pygmies. You get the smaller size, good milking ability, and they have that sweet Nubie personality. When it comes to building their pen, don't even think...

Not sure what part of Texas you're in. I got my first ones from Holman over in Grand Prairie. He's got a lot of Rascher bloodlines... she's further south, halfway to Houston I think. I plan on making a run her way in the spring to get some more does.

Are you asking me? The setup is in the garage, so even when the outside temperature has been 0 it stayed around 40 or so in there. Here's some pictures. There are two trays on the tank, and since the light level is too low for anything else I'm about to seed both trays entirely in wheat seed...
