I guess I'm going to secretly snip a few of my wife's hibiscus plants.

I guess you learn something new everyday, THANKS. I didn't know rabbits can eat hibiscus. I have hardy hibiscus plants around my house and never thought once I could feed it to the crew. So they can eat the leaves and flowers correct? what about the buds? just figured I'd ask ;)

:congratulations:

Merry Christmas to you in August! And what a gift they were. I wanna' see pics too

I was thinking about heading to the state fair myself.

I also believe that were headed for some dark and troubling times. Economic collapse is definitely something I think about. Natural disasters are very real and it happens everyday. If and when we do enter into these dark times, I hope people realize there will be rioting, looting and pure chaos...

Cortunix quail is a dark meat bird while the Bob white has white meat. I don't know to much about them other...

There are a few reasons I got into raising rabbits. The single most important reason for me would have to be self sufficiency. I take great pride in being able to provide my family with hormone and steroid free meat. I believe that this country is headed for some rough times and i pray that im...

I would assume you would sew some sort of lining to the back side but again I honestly don't know, and I don't like to assume things either. However it's done I know it will keep you nice and warm on a cold winters night that's FUR sure!

I have been wondering the same thing. I keep my rabbits outside under a big ol shade tree and give them ice bottles when the temps hover in the upper 80s. Here in NC it's been HOT and humid for the majority of the summer. I was going to start breeding again at the end of August but know im...
