I got bad feed mid April but I have since switched feeds (there was a batch w/corn in it when I first switched now the last batch I got is the correct formula.) Other breeders on the same feed aren't having issues. I do give some oat groats and timothy hay (just with all the feed changes.) If...

I butchered a couple and the livers looked fine, no white spots or even a speck. The antibiotic I had them on was for coccidia similar to Sulmet. They were 7 days on, 7 days off and 7 days on. This all started when I opened a new bag of feed last month. Eveyone bloated overnight, most were fine...

OK. I am really at a loss. I have some rabbits, young jrs 3-5 mo old that are eating and pooping and drinking fine but when you pick them up their stomach is distended and it feels tight. If you thump the side it sounds hollow. I have necropsied a few of these a few weeks ago and the only gas I...

I am in Texas and since my original plan is too expensive I think I am going to have to build an 8x12 or 10x12 shed and put an AC unit in it for my bucks and a couple of litters that I want to have this summer. I am building this from scratch so I am looking for suggestions of what to include...

I agree that 4 weeks is too young. It is the one thing I don't like about selling meat pens. They make the validation dates too early at least this year in my county. Breed date was Dec 15 and validation Feb 15. So many kids are going to be disappointed when their rabbits die. I give Benebac...

Can rabbits have Cottonwood leaves? They are all over the ground, and dry. Just fell this week. MY chickens love digging in them. Thanks

Bummer, guess I will have to rake the leaves before I can let them graze. They usually leave the berries alone but I think the leaves will be much more tempting. I have huge trees and they do provide alot of shade in the summer but the berries and leaves are a pain. I think it is Melia azedarach.

I know the berries are poisonous but what about the leaves? I want to let my rabbits out to graze a bit but the leaves are falling and since they are small it is hard to rake them up before putting the rabbits out. Also, what about Cottonwood leaves? Thanks!

Planning on coming up from Texas. Bringing Americans and Californians' Looking for broken black, black or red New Zealands if anyone knows of anyone selling. (preferably does).

Anyone out there have any red NZ does for sale? Older jr or breeding age. Proven does even. Looking for show quality and pedigreed. Can get transport from Convention back to Texas. Or looking for someone in TX (Central but travel to various shows around the state and OK.) Thanks!

Anyone on here going to the show in Cleburne, TX this weekend? (Spt 27-28) Just curious. :)

No Cali buck of mine has ever been totally calm. I was going to bring him some sweet potato leaves, he will probably freak out if I get anywhere near the door. If wasn't going to be 95F today I would cover his cage a bit. He is not in direct sun. I could put a piece of coroplast on the top...

Not sure if this is the right forum or not. I got a new jr Cal buck (Really nice looking) this past weekend. He was a little skittish when I saw him but the breeder said he hadn't been handled (he had over 100 rabbits probably) I really liked his type and it would go really well with my does...

Well, she hasn't dried up, some are just dying. The odd thing is it is just the brown colored babies, the black one are fine. Not sure why a particular color is dying. (This was a multiple mating with two different bucks so the brown ones are one sire and the blacks another. First time for...

I have been giving her some oats (not alot) Some bellies are ok, (not great) some look a little skinny. The fact that they were not really warm worried me and did not give me the 'popcorn' effect when I checked them in the nest this morning.

I think the my doe has dried up for some reason. The first few days everyone looked fed and doing well. Then I had one dead kit last night (runt), then another one this morning and the kits were in different places in the nest a little skinny and not feeling really warm either? I flipped the...

Yeah, i was there. The shocked one that had to double check the tattoo of the rabbit when they announced that she won. lol She had always placed 2nd in her class and she is a nice rabbit (best I have had). Still she had started molting two weeks ago and her coat was a bit open. Not sure...

Great show this weekend. Different building but still good. I think there were less rabbits/people but it still went longer than last time. My American doe that didn't make min wt last time (but has awesome type) got BOSB in show A and BOB in show B. The shocker of the day was my California...

Got that American posed correctly yet?

Well 1 of the three is doing much better, eating, got in my lap and curious just like a jr buck usually is. The jr doe, eating a little, sounding a bit better. The NZ jr doe is my concern, not eating (a few small, timothy hay cubes, no pellets, no rolled oats). Drank a little, peed some, but...
