They are in separate cages and I feed fresh hand cut grass and plants every day and have successfully raised many other litters with this method so there really is no chance of mold.

Thank you for your help. I decided not to risk spreading infection with looking as the babies have stopped dying. Sadly we had lost 14 out of 18 babies already but the last 4 are all doing well and seem very healthy 4 days later. Hopefully whatever it was is something they have a strong immunity...

Thanks! And the thing is they are still moving around for a while and then they do eventually stop breathing but I am just trying to find out what is going on.

Hello. I posted earlier today but I now have more details and wanted to put this in a more specific section. I have 2 different kindlngs from different mamas on my homestead at the moment. All previous kits have been raised successfully and I have changed nothing. No feed change, no bedding, no...

So I am noticing that some are still alive and the blood is pooling in their nails. We are up to 4 dead and 3 more bad condition almost all of our 17 babies are being affected at this point and in different cages separated by a wall. My husband believes its could be a lack of circulation. Is...

No mold. Bedding is just a thin straw we grow ourselves.

Wooden ones we built last year. They have worked great even through the winter for all our other babies.

I just checked back to the other ones (the 2 week olds that had one death as well) All but 1 seem stiff and a little cold as well. So far they are still all moving around fine but they just feel different when you pick them up. I have had multiple adult bunnies get sick in the past and they...

No new rabbits and the babies are still nursing so no food has been added.

Hello all! So we are about to go into our second year of raising meat rabbits and we have a doe who has had successful kindlings before but this is her first time with us. (The babies are silver fox if that helps any) She had a healthy littler of ten kits on 04/15/24 So today they are 11 days...

As for the brothers, yeah I really have never seen any silver foxes like them and I just assumed it was the molt because they looked so different but they are pure bred silvers so I am not sure what happened with them. Also do you know if it is normal for them to still be molting this late in...

Thanks! Yeah the sun was shining a lot and I tried to get him to stay still to get his eyes because I had heard about the ruby glow. But I couldn't get a good shot. I'll try when its a little less bright out. I know the first buck has chocolate, blue, and black in his line but not sure what...

Would anyone be able to tell me what they think my three jr bucks colors are? At first at first when I got the buck in the first two pictures I was pretty sure he was standard blue, but when I got these two other bucks who have been in a molt the entire time I’ve had them, I was thinking maybe...

I recommend looking online to see if there is a livestock or animal swap near you! If they don't have one in person they probably at least have a facebook page where you could advertise when you are selling bunnies!

HI! My name is Justine and along with my husband, Daniel I am raising Coturnix Quail and meat rabbits! Our main focus is on preserving the Silver Fox breed but we also have a New Zealand mix doe so that we could have experience raising more than just one breed of rabbit. We have had rabbits for...
