I honestly would be willing to ship some hides to you (I'm in eastern PA, so UPS ground would likely be 1-2 day max) in exchange for a few in return, not sure if that's amenable? I have several in particular I've been wanting to save, that are frozen. I'd be willing to do a super lopsided...

I'm going to back up the truth and transparency train to this thread here, as I was emailed about it. I also want to make it clear this is the second WHINE and RANT and LIE thread that you have posted over PRIVATE DISCOURSE we've had, and I let the first one go because you were angry. Now, I'm...

The show is totally fake. Levi lives locally and is ex-mennonite, not Amish. Most of the 'stars' are kids who grew up in new order mennonite homes and left. The things they spout, like "Amish don't hug their children" GOOD LORD. Fake.

American Blues have Bev. in their background and have been known to show up with white patches on their heads when too intensely line bred

That is a liver fluke

Since this is going along the same lines, I'm curious. When you show another breeder's animal, it's proper to give them credit, right? Not say "MY rabbit won..." Curious.

I have several lines of NZ that reach butcher weight at 8 weeks, and my Americans are closer to 9/10 but generally have superior yields. I think mostly because the Americans eat less. It's realistic. Research who you are buying your rabbits from. Those that concentrate on shows and do not eat...

We raise Americans in Pennsylvania and they are my favorites. We have blues and whites currently. Everything they stated is true...blues have longer ears, making them more heat tolerant, and they are more docile than my NZ's and cals. Unlike the commercial breeds, blues are a mandolin shape...

Well, in your OP you do not state that you only wanted answers that didn't have to do with the colony. You mentioned that you didn't believe it was the issue. I'm not anti-colony, I've just seen a significant number of failures with ground and colony kept rabbits. With rabbits...and...

You're right...you should just continue putting all of your effort into telling us we're wrong and your set up is perfect, regardless of the myriad of problems you appear to be having. Don't ask questions if you don't want opinions and are only going to be rude in response. It's a waste of...

It's very common to see colony raised rabbits have issues with kindling and breeding. I believe it's more of an instinctual issue than anything else...rabbits aren't programmed to keep to the breeding schedules we place for them in a meat production setting. They rely on instinctual cues to know...

I've heard animals were being destroyed within two days...obviously hearsay but you never know.

Thread appears to be gone.

Basically what I'm saying is...there's a lot of people who will sell meat rabbits, but personally have never dressed or eaten a rabbit, nor do they use a processor. A lot of people just enjoy the personalities of the meat breeds and that's totally fine...but can they really say how great that...

It won't last long, that board is so overmoderated they don't allow any criticism of any kind. Very good comments on there Terry. I know of several breeders that had to leave today without showing because they were running hours and hours late.

In my opinion, many show breeders concentrate on form over qualities you want in a meat rabbit...large litters, good milk producers, good mothering ability, docility, etc. I see round fat 8 lb NZ's on a table that have litters of four rabbits that they call an ideal meat rabbit. It varies...

Would you fill in other information that you didn't have? Such as a date of birth, color, or sex? Because if it's only THAT animal that matters...than surely everything else is arbitrary, correct? NO! LOL This is where things get muddled. A small lie, not matter how insignificant, is still a...

Hi, what breed of turkeys? And geese? Is pricing per each different breed?

Can you give me an idea on their growth rates? Thanks!
