I have my first rabbit and I have a question about feed. She doesn't seem to eat very much of her timothy hay. Drinks well, eats her feed pellets and eats the greens I put in her craite....ie beet tops, carrot tops, dandelions, blackberry leaves, Brussels, green beans, parsley etc. I don't think...

Yet another question from a newbie I recently adopted a black female mini Rex. They tell me she is approximately 2 years old. She is pretty cage aggressive and is not very comfortable with being held. I am not sure if its because she is new to us or if the old owners didn't do much with her. I...

Hi all I'm going to apologize in advance if this question has been asked before. I recently adopted what most people are telling me is a mini Rex. I took it to the vet just to make sure that it was healthy and because it's poor nails were so long I wasn't comfortable clipping them myself for the...

Thanks that was my thought as well. I immunize my animals to what is required but I often feel that there are too many unnecessary drugs pushed on us.

I was just wondering if all of you immunize your bunnies?

I'm sorry, I'm pretty new here and still figuring things out but how would I look up a thread?

So today we rescued our first bunny....She's a sweetie, but right now I am concerned because I am seeing some blood in what I believe to be her pee. She is definitely overweight, and her nails are atrocious so I am sure she hasn't been as well taken care of as I would like. Her ears are good but...

Thanks everyone! Didn't want to make a stupid mistake that would be impossible to undo.... Marinea...You have an Easter Bunny Farm! How awesome is that LOL

Obviously I know enough not to use treated lumber when building our hutch which we are not except for the support legs into the ground....But is there anything wrong with painting the OUTSIDE of the hutch to help the wood last longer and to just look pretty? .....I am going to try attaching a...

Thanks Mama Sheepdog! You seem to be the one I can always count on to answer a question!

I am looking at getting a buck and doe angora rabbit (not related) I have contacted a breeder who has a few to choose from that I can get a pair out of. I want to know what I should be looking for. I know to check the ears, teeth, genitals. What else should I be looking for and as I would like...

This was truly amazing thank you so much for all the effort you put into this!

Ok, I'm going to throw out the stupid question because I am trying to glean as much knowledge as possible as a soon to be new owner of angora rabbits. I will be breeding and also harvesting fur. The Ivermectin comes in an injectable and a paste correct? The paste is to be given orally and not...

should you keep a pregnant doe or one that has already had her kits separate from other does? Will there be a problem with the other rabbit hurting the kits?

Thanks Silver Cloud. We were thinking of built in boxes with one side being hinged for access...Do you have thoughts on that? Thank you for the links you posted. will take a look now. I'm very excited to have found this site
