Just five with this litter but I had actually guessed it right as the doe is older (proven brood doe) and the first litter for and proving one of my young bucks. Three black and two blues! My very first litter with my original meat mutts gave me nine (all since retired to camp) and my other...

Congrats! Just got our 3rd litter this morning and I was just as excited as the first, hope that excitement never wanes.

Think this reply was meant for @RFSatins...

WWG1WGA...Cheers 🍷

I cannot like your post more, although an American, I feel so much for my brothers and sisters in the UK fighting the same fight for our liberty, freedom and ultimately our futures. You are incredibly justified in your anger and I'm angry for you as well. I wish I had some great wisdom to share...

I am so deeply sorry for your loss, that is devastating 😢. Although I'm still too new to be able to give you any decent advice, I just want to say I completely agree with Alaska Satin on absolutely every they said, 100%. Humans will never seem to learn to not play God...

So happy for you! My mom acquired severe allergies to many protein sources later in her life to include chicken and pork (she could eat beef and turkey). Full blown anaphylaxis if any chicken or pork involved. It kills me now to realize that she probably could have had rabbit and prepared all of...

** UPDATE ** Pellet gun is definitely the way to go for me and my better half agrees as well. We did all 10 with the .177 pellet handgun. Our rabbitry is a building with a deck built on the front. We have 4x4 inch high posts on each far corner of the deck with brackets where our gambrils hang...

Same here on just about everything you wrote, right down to a nasty SF doe (although mine is younger, 4 1/2 months old but almost 8 lbs already AND I have her full brother who is as sweet as can be)! I actually have to dispatch 10 here shortly, my last mixed adult and her 12 week old litter of...

I have one of my kits that is feed dumping and it's killing me. I know which one as I've caught it in the act now twice but I've lost so much feed this past week not to mention, the other kits go without till I refill again. 😡🤬 If I wasn't already planning to process the entire litter this...

Good to know! I do the palletized bedding as well plus a sprinkle of sweet PDZ to help kill the ammonia.

I have the Bass stackers (30x36) and upgraded to their plastic trays when I ordered the racks. I wanted to avoid the rust issue and figured they'd be lighter and less likely to scratch me when handling. I didn't think to order another set of trays to swap out for when my trays need to be pulled...

I'm still pretty new so take my opinion with a grain of salt but I personally wouldn't go any smaller than a 30x30 for bucks. They get to be around 10/11 lbs easy fill grown, correct? 24" is tight.

In Tennessee as my screen name shows but just wanted to say welcome!

Welcome! Great group of people here, tons of experience and knowledge who are happy to share...have helped me immensely. I have one mixed rabbit left of my "starter" buns along with her almost 8 week old litter, all the rest are Silver Foxes which will be my sole focus moving forward.

I'm wondering if maybe .22 or pellet gun would be best for the older breeders whom we've become more attached to. Older is harder with the hopper popper and maybe with a gun, can just set them down on some grass or, in my case, woodland but with a salad on ground so they wouldn't see it coming...

One of the many reasons why I decided to go with Silver Foxes was to not have patterns and will have mostly blacks and chocolates (with hopefully a few Blues and Lilacs for fun as i do have a blue buck and possible dilute carrying does)...the patterns make them so individualized and harder, I...

Oh, and numbing creme recommendations as well?

Hi all, I'm looking to purchase a tattoo pen and wondering what everyone here who tattoos thier rabbits use before I pull the trigger on the one Bass equipment has. It only has one review so a bit on the fence. Thanks in advance!

Thank you. I'm not going to lie, although I made it through it all without crying as I forced myself to stay focused on the tasks at hand, I did shed some tears quietly last night. Funny side story, I got a black doe and a blue buck a couple of weeks ago from a doctor up in Kentucky. Really...
