Thank you for the heads up

My little popples are getting big, 19 days old and i was wondering how long does the nesting box stay in the cage with mom? Thanks for the response and all other help this site has given. Growing bunnies is definitely not like making a pizza, through some stuff together set a timer and leave...

We've been lucky and have had 5 new moms. Like them we are new and was wondering when turn their boxes on the side to let them roam more freely. We've lost 4 new ones, 13 days old, because they got out but could not get back in and froze due to this &^*% , insert personal word to describe the...

we had 10 more yesterday afternoon with no dead, but our first mom has not fed her babes and hasn't covered them well so we have lost 6 more and I relocated the other ones to the other two moms I hope it works out they both have large litters to take care of.

plenty of water and food is taken care of. do they typically not sit in the nesting box? Just wondering if they will keep warm enough or is there something that i should be doing for that also.

So should I just leave them alone for right now? Thanks

I went out this morning and two of my does kindled. One had 13 and the other had at least 11 can't tell yet. The one doe had hers on the wire but I got to them soon enough. I only lost 2 out of each litter. The one doe didn't look like she fed hers cause they were wrinkled and not plump...

I would butcher for myself and he would use as snake food. sorry for not being clear.

your thoughts. I have a guy who will give me money for the infected rabbits per pound and a set amount for small kits. I could take the money or use it toward some new stock he has that have extremely good lines. my dilemma is, do I just cull them all out now, disinfect everything, keep the...

I looked outside today in the barn and the "Reeper" was standing in the middle of my barn. I came to the conclusion that it would be best for all of the herd if all those that I got from that guy would go on a little journey to freezerville. Just wanting to make sure, is it ok to eat the...

It was really one old guy mostly and you don't write like he does. You have been very helpful so far with my novice questions. You most certainly are not him.

went tonight and got some blu cote. why do they call it blue cote when it comes out purple? hopefully it works cause he was a sore looking little man. Thanks for the help.

Zass, You say to cull all, does that include the does that are pregnant and showing signs? I just want to do this right and not waste anymore money. This whole thing is making me sick to my stomach. :sick: sam

I did some more research and I am coming to the realization that I am going to have to cull at least half of my herd :cry: . I still don't really know what I should do with my does that are pregnant. If my does don't show signs should I still cull them since they came from the same...

does a white spot of snot on their nose indicate Pasturella? I was to eager to get rabbits and bought some off CL and didn't know about P. I see now it may be the worst thing I've done so far. If I cull the ones I got from him, I'm going to lose half my herd. :( I have 13 does, some show...

so after i cull those out, can you still eat the meat, and what should a person sanitize the cage with (a bleach mixture)

Hmm...I'm sure I can name several of *those* sites right off the bat, too. :angry: It's not just on rabbit sites. I also belong to a taxidermy site that has a couple of individuals on it that get there undies in a bundle over the smallest things. It's ok to be passionate about something but...

I have been reading posts about pasturella and what is your opinions on this. Is it smart or fiscally worth it in a meat rabbitry to treat them or do you just cull them out and clean out the cages. I have a couple does that are sneezing with white snot on them and want to do what is best for...

thanks I see it now. These fancy web sites with their high dollar words for finding stuff like "search" who would have thought.

First i would like to thank this website for being here. :D It has answered many of my questions without any sort of hostility. You don't get that on other sites. :twisted: Second is there an archive that we can look up possible other threads that may pertain to our questions instead of...
