My son has ferrets - Not angora's , just the plain ones. From what I understand you must have a federal permit to possess intact animals.

I agree with MaggieJ … and that's very similar to how I've always done it. Cant have popples if you don't have a place for them … I detest dispatching but sometimes it's got to be done. Its better than letting them go , ending up as dog or snake food or sending them to a shelter. Getting great...

I butcher them hanging on my back patio - dogs be damned …. really the dogs don't get in the way much and they love the scraps I throw them but they know not to touch anything I don't give them. I don't know what other critters you have around …. but I'd just do it. Hang the carcass shoulder...

I've had hundreds over the years …. we have only a single red tail boa currently. I got rid of my most of collection when my first kid was born and the rest shortly after. Just didn't make sense to have snakes around children. The current resident belongs to my daughter who's 12. She saw...

The cleaner the better - fewer places for bacteria to grow the better.

Nothing like Rex fur .... a couple extra weeks of grow time is well worth the wait for that plush velvety goodness.

All my cages came from K&W.... great equipment at a reasonable price.

I actually use something similar to cut off the feet. Never crossed my mind to try and dispatch with that instrument ....

Just ask yourself if the expense of that one rabbit is worth losing your entire herd .... If I see signs of that dreaded P word .... I'm culling any and all suspects. One rabbit simply isn't worth the years I've invested in my herd no matter where it came from.

I'm in Houston .... just about the whole city was submerged. I got no water in the house but tens of thousands did. Its a real mess , the entire city has been shut down for the better part of a week. I've been thru quite a few of these living here since the 60's .... All you can do is prepare...

I'm still alive too ....

Just let me know if you can arrange it .... The lilac pictured above is descended from MommaSheepDog's Evil Blue as are most of my breeders .... California is a long way from Texas.

If you can arrange shipping .... I'll send you a trio. Only have black , chocolate and blue currently. <br /><br /> __________ Sun Aug 06, 2017 7:37 pm __________ <br /><br /> Just making sure you saw this .... even if it is a longshot , the offer stands.

My Rex don't look like that even when in full molt blowout. They look like some 2nd / 3rd gen crosses I experimented with - horrible texture on the fur. They can call them "pedigree rex" all they want but that wouldn't pass muster with me. Start with quality stock or you'll regret it later.

I wouldn't buy them ... the fur looks nothing like a Rex to me , pee stains all over the one on the bottom make me question the living conditions. The bottom one also looks to have pinched hips the way his feet are splayed. I'd really look elsewhere .... sorry if I sound harsh. (Rex is the...
