After dinner I will get some pictures. Scours is another name for diarrehea

Other than the white gook she does not have any other symptoms. I noticed her not eating. tonight she seemed more active when I force fed her.

It looked pretty gross so I didn't touch it, but it looked like runny puss.

One of my buns is sick I think she has the scours. Her rear is matted and there is some white looking material in the cage. The same white gunk is on her rear. I noticed this last night and put some terramycin in her water and used a syringe to give her some water. I also gave her some...

I disagree with getting a live trap. Coyotes are really smart animals and I don't believe you will be able to catch that coyote in a live trap. I have never heard of anyone catching a coyote in a live trap unless it was sick. When I used to trap, coyotes were one of the hardest animals to...

I put my Californian doe in with my red NZ and he tried and she wouldn't raise, so I took her out and put her in with my Holland lop. He bred her then he fell over and she got up and climbed on top of him and humped him and fell over like she was imitating him. After a bit Oreo bred her again...

I bred the bunnies 2 weeks before I went on vacation. Before I left I put marble slabs in all the cages. Wen I left Florida this afternoon it was about 95 degrees and got Back to Missouri it was 79 degrees. Tomorrow the high forecasted is 75. I have some bottles frozen in the freezer.

Well I'm back from vacation. Now I have 5 Rabbits that are supposed to have little ones by Tuesday. We will see how many took. The nest boxes were put in tonight and 3 rabbits were making nests.

Depending on what you're feeding the rabbits will affect the taste of the meat. My in-laws were buying butchered rabbits from a local for months and he switched feed and that affected the flavor of the rabbits, so they quit buying them.

Well in that case I guess I will be raising some meat mutts as well as some purebreds. Thank You for the answers.

I have been seeing the words meat mutts used in several posts. Can anyone tell me what a meat mutt is referring to?

You should check out Bass Equipment located in Monett, Missouri they have all kind of parts and brass auto water nibblers for $ 3.25 which I use. I have 2 different setups for my bunnies. The first one is set up with a 30 gal plastic barrel turned on its side with a 1/2" pvc threaded male...

I installed an automatic water system. You can make a simple one which I did for one cage by using a empty cat litter bucket with lid. Drill a hole in the bucket near the bottom and install a bulkhead (Lowes carries these) add some pvc pipe, a tee and automatic drip valve (available at Bass...

Thank You for the information on keeping my bunnies cool. I have not heard about using the tiles. I think that would work great. We have a local company that makes granite countertops which would be a good place to pick up some scraps for next to nothing. I have started using frozen bottles...

Has anyone tried cultured marble? Cultured marble can be found at Lowes in the tile section. As for Marble slabs, if you know of a local company that makes granite countertops you may be able to pick up some scrap pieces for next to nothing.

Thank you on those tips. What do you think about putting burlap over the top of wire cages and wetting it down?

Hello, I have recently decided to raise rabbits for meat for my family. I have been at this for about 2 months. I am wanting to know what can I do to try and keep the rabbits cooler in this hot weather? The rabbits are located in a shed which is open at both ends and is shaded by a large...
