    New Rabbit... Name?

    That's ok! I saw RC and my mind went to RC Cola - which I've never had!

    Putting rabbits outside

    Hi Alex. Welcome to the community! My does jump on the top of the nest box (or the side) to take a break from the kits. However, eventually the kits follow the doe. I have some kits that run around jumping on everything they can,like an obstacle course. KT

    I like the colour of the bottom rabbit. Was that Gold?

    Sort-of new! Hoping to be social with other rabbit breeders!

    You are welcome! Have fun with it - then come back here to ask others questions, or discuss what you are learning, what's really fascinating...I have read the articles, and reread...and reread...lol... takes a minute to soak in. I feel the basics are fairly graspable, but... then there are game...

    Bottle feeding

    I think having it all on hand is a good idea. Relieves the stress some. I was saying I should add a couple options to my pantry as well. Glad you brought this up.

    I learned a lot from quite a few people here. @Alaska Satin @judymac @Preitler and others.. They offered advice, shared links. I read anything and everything in the backlogs here. I went to other sites,watched the free classes on YouTube. I feel like I barely know anything . :) Rabbit coat...

    Thank you! Now consistently would be a win. I bred CC to Oreo a broken black. We will see what happens in the next breeding. All my interesting colours are not showable outside of the meat pen.The weights are looking good , but maybe at a slower rate for some. So many helpful people here!

    @#$&@$!! RATS!!! Rat proofing project.

    I knew a woman with a rat problem once. She fed the rats mashed potatoes with poison. I don't recall if there was gravy as well. But she did have a large body count. They were bold rats. I hope you solve this issue soon; you've done a lot of wonderful upgrades to protect your kits.

    En Question

    Thank you! While I do have the pedigree, we know it's wee wonky in places. I sold the broken black kit, kept the broken other kit (haven't really figured him out either..broken smoke pearl, broken blue sallander, - broken steel was 3 generations back)...kept the 2 smoke pearl does who now look...

    En Question

    Can a REW cover/hide anything? Is there a chance a REW could be A_,B_,CC,__ _ ,EN_, ? My broken black Oreo had 2 REW kits so I'm curious to know if that gene could also be hidden. How would you know? Or how could you test breed? Thank you for any thoughts and all sharing! KT

    Welcome to the forum! This is a great community to learn from. Most of my rabbits are New Zealand. However, I have 3 Rex that I recently bred. We will see if the does took. I bred Chai to Te,my rex buck. And Blondie to a new zealand buck simply because she was too much for Te. He's a young...
