    Blue Silver Fox Can NOT Produce Black Silver Foxes?

    Relent gave me 7 beautiful blue silvereds on October 1, 2017. :D It's Solitaire's first litter. He's a good dad. Haha.

    Blue Silver Fox Can NOT Produce Black Silver Foxes?

    Title says it all. Someone told me that blue silvered Silver Foxes can not produce black silvered Silver Fox when bred to another blue silvered. I believe this to be correct, am I? I hopefully have a litter due this 30th. Both parents are pedigreed blue silvered Silver Foxes. This will be the...

    Anyone here raise rare breeds?

    I raise pedigreed Silver Foxes. PROS: * Good meat to bone ratio (if bred correctly towards the standard). * Most are good mothers. * All of my does pulled larger than normal amounts of fur during kindling. * Fun to show! Not much to compete against in my area though. * They tend to be...

    URGENT! Help Me Keep This Kit From My Dead Buck Alive

    I lost him tonight. I'm feeling quite depressed. I am holding on to hope that my other doe is pregnant from the buck that died. Thank you for everyone that replied with their suggestions and advice. I appreciate it. I'll update this thread if my other doe has kits.

    URGENT! Help Me Keep This Kit From My Dead Buck Alive

    My show Silver Fox buck who won several awards at the young age of 5 months, ended his life Saturday. :cry: : He was only 7 months old! I bred him to two of my does before he was killed. I do not know yet if the one doe is pregnant or not ( please be ), the other doe had 6 kits. One was born...

    Charging $100 For a Mutt...Can I Do This?

    I wrote a post back in November of 2016 on being able to charge $35 for a mutt. Now my mutts are currently at $85 total. My question is, since my demand cannot be met and the fact that I have an amazing reputation, can I jack the price up to $100? I am honest that they're mutts.

    Doe Has Premature Kits and Eats Half of One

    So due to them being a week premature, I did not put a nest box in. This doe is a Mini Lop and this is her second litter. She's 1 year old. Excellent mother. Had 6 kits in her first litter. She pulled no fur even and had 3 kits. Two were born dead. The other one was amazingly alive. But she...

    Should I give up on this doe?

    I have the "3 strikes, you're out" rule. Very rarely will I make an exception. Just my two cents, but here goes. I had a Giant Chinchilla doe who had 2 litters with me ( no, I was not her breeder and these were her first litters ever). First, she was very difficult to breed (always took, just...

    How Young Is Too Young?

    I use to own 5 pedigreed Jersey Woolies. Horribly allergic. :( So I sold mine. I've bred as young as 5 months old (she had her kit at 6 months old) and did fine. She only had 1 kit though and did not have her in the nest box, she took all the hay out and pulled a ton of fur in the corner...

    Snuffles or Am I Overacting?

    There goes another kit and the Silver Fox's sister. The kit just up and died a few days ago. The sister Fox is sneezing snot. Hello darkness my old friend. :( My life is shit and piss right now.

    Snuffles or Am I Overacting?

    Thanks everyone. BlueHaven, damn that sucks so bad. I'm sorry love. Should I shoot the other 3 Silver Foxes that lived with her? I have her sister, a buck (related on dads' sides), and a doe that is completely unrelated to them. What do I tell my buyers? I absolutely will NOT lie to anyone...

    Snuffles or Am I Overacting?

    Update: Well guys, everything was going good minus the sneezing, today I noticed Moon Dynamite (the sneezing Silver Fox rabbit) wiping her face with her paws, after she did this I noticed she smeared snot all over her hutch wire. White sticky thick snot...the pasteurella has happened. I then...
