Happy New Year everybody!! :pinkbunny: :fireworks1: :pinkbunny: I hope the holidays treated you well and you all had lots of great time spent with your families (and your rabbits, of course :D ) One of my New Year's goals was to finally get my Etsy shop up and running (well, I was...

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been as active on here. It seems like I only pop up whenever I have a problem. :oops: I've had a doe that has been bloated and had soft poo for a couple of weeks, and then finally noticed pinworms in her stool last night. Naturally, she's got babiest that are JUST...

I've selected my replacements from this season's litters, and I'm excited to see how they perform this fall! Even though my foundation trio were barely a year old, I knew what I wanted from my rabbits, and selected the best of their offspring to replace them. (I don't have a lot of space.) All...

You know how crazy things just seem to all happen at once? Well, this has been one of those weeks...... Where to begin? :hmm: On Sunday we were eating lunch with the family at my parents' house. We recently bought the place right next to their property and have been in the process of...

Having a hard time coming up with a subject title for this one. Back in January our 8-year-old boxer mix, Lucy started hacking and blowing snot. My husband took her to the vet, and they wrote it off as Kennel Cough and put her on a routine round of antibiotics. I was not pleased with their...

Seriously?? Come on.... :lol: http://huntsville.craigslist.org/grd/5018991329.html

My NZ doe kindled today: 6 DOA (3 of which were underdeveloped) & 7 live. She passed a pretty good amount of blood, although it doesn't appear she is bleeding anymore. She had a difficult time with her last kindle too, and had one kit stuck, but all was well afterwards. Maybe she has too much...

This rabbit is now 8 weeks old, and has confused me from day one. I'm not sure whether I'm dealing with a funky shaped doe or a buck with a split penis. It looks sort of like a "taco" when I apply very light pressure, but if I press a little more I see this: I shared this photo on the BYMR...

Looks like 2nd time was the charm for my lovely little doe Babette! Even though she kindled on the wire, she has been an excellent mama since then. (She even pulled more fur when the temps got colder last night!) BUT, no sooner had I begun rejoicing that my Creme d'Argent breeding program...

My Creme d'Argent doe is due tomorrow, and she is still struggling with this nest box thing. She had her last litter on the wire after insisting on building her nest in the cage corner; after I repeatedly picked up her nest, placed it in the box, and moved the box to that spot. She of course...

Not too long ago I shared a post about my grow-outs having intestinal issues: http://rabbittalk.com/post259638.html#p259638 I did everything I could for them, short of giving them medication: just hay and water with ACV, Probios, garlic tops (in case of cocci). Despite my best efforts they got...

My NZR doe kindled this afternoon - 13 babies!! :P Kind of a surprise since she kindled 7 her first time and only 2 last time. All of them look pretty good, albeit some understandably small. However, one kit has a really strange eye deformity. I thought maybe at first a piece of foreign...

So my grow-outs turn 8 wks tomorrow, and I've noticed their appetites have really dropped the last couple of days. They don't seem terribly ill. Just blah. I've noticed some loose stools, but not full blown diarrhea. Last week was really rainy, and their pen got more muddy than I intended for...

So I know Ivermectn paste is pretty widely recommended by rabbit raisers as a good treatment for ear mites. I have a brood doe who has had a really stubborn case, so I went ahead and treated her with a pea-sized amount, as per everyone's recommendations. When I was reading the warning label...

Okay, so this was my first attempt at posing my rabbits for evaluation, so be gentle with me :D . I only had time to pose 3 out of my 6. The biggest challenges were getting their hind feet lined up right, and keeping them from flattening their heads on the mat (especially Colbert). From the...

It took me weeks to modify our 10 x 10 kennel into a grow-out pen, but I finally completed it today! :clap: (Progress is slow, with a 14-month-old in tow.) These guys get two weeks of freedom before the "big day." They are so fun to watch! :D

I have a New Zealand doe that kindled two kits, yesterday. One was partially eaten on the wire, one was alive and well-fed in the nest box. This same doe kindled and raised a litter of 7 last time. I re-bred her when those kits were 4 weeks old. What would cause her to have such a small...

Remember Cardamom, the New Zealand doe that botched her last litter? (urgent-how-many-can-a-doe-foster-t23138.html) Well this happened today... A textbook fluffy nest filled with 10 healthy popples!! :D Somebody gets a carrot (and has avoided a trip to the crock pot)! :)

We get drop-offs regularly, living in a state park. It always seems to be in the dead of winter. Unfortunately, our county doesn't have an animal shelter; only a euthanasia clinic. We can sometimes find park visitors to pawn them off on. Incidentally, two of our current dogs were drop-offs. And...
