Oh sweets I'm sooooo sorry for your loss of a litter.... I just lost a litter myself....I can never tell early on by palpitating if they are prego, but when they are approaching the day I find if I turn them over on their back while they are resting calmly and apply pressure you will feel the...

You aren't kidding! The Doe's Chalet was a nasty ugly brown chicken coop :o we saved from a bon fire :).... The colorful walkway is the neighbors old driveway :mrgreen: , and the tumbling poles are from my Mom-in-Laws fence. I love dumpster diving.....It is what makes every part of your...

I agree.... I moved from a small garden to an acre cleared free of all plants... I was very discouraged... The side yard swamped and sometimes the water would pool on our property... Plants died , I gave up... The hurricanes hit that year and flooded the whole property...tons of pine trees and...

I have my pond netted now, once the trees are lush again I will put some sun sails over it and that should deter any new herons flying over.... The other seems to have given up and moved on now.... The rest of my garden is more rustic...but Bunnyville took a look of it's own oddly....Everything...

Nice....what kind of vines are you going to grow?

The huge Chocolate bunny was a great find at the Goodwill :) We did not live with it, we changed out the plywood wood for wire inside the hutches.....much cleaner that way! We have no problems with cats or coyotes around here....not really sure we have much of a coyote population here in...

I'm so excited I just wanted to share.....After a bad 1st litter...this one seems more likely to be sucessful! I wanted to share some upgrades to Bunnyville and our new additions! You can ck out my blog for more pictures and info too....<br /><br />__________ Sat Mar 02, 2013 2:39 pm...

I checked them this morning......OK so these babies are different than the last ones....as soon as I moved the hair away they starting popping all over...THAT is crazy. First the Buck faints, and now the babies POP,,,,Our God sure does have a sense of humor.....There are seven kits....all were...

The last few days were a scramble, to get the old nesting tunnels off, a new Buck cage made and new nesting boxes for the pregnant Does. We were cutting it close, but today the nesting box went in with Cinnamon in The Buck's hut, (we had moved him out) to a new cage and within hours she was...

My nesting tunnels are 3 feet off the ground, the ants still found them :( I'll try the baking soda trick....

Thanks guys....I believe the other two does are prego, so I hope to have a second chance in the next few weeks....I will have modified my set up by then....Do you guys use only hay, or do you ever use large horse shavings (pine)? Curious what is better?

Thanks....I know the tunnels are a more natural envirenment for them, but should I just go to boxes instead. I do feel bad...having made such a rookie error.... :( I thought I was fully prepared.....it really is a learning experience....NEXT TIME WILL BE BETTER!

I had a disaster of a first litter...please help me figure all the areas I went wrong, so we don't repeat it. I posted earlier about my tunnels....I have a large pen with nesting tunels, two Does hosed together. The tunels are 12x12x24 long. Not knowing where she would deliver, put hay in all...

Thank you.......sheeeewwwww...I feel much better now :)

I have question??????? This morning I went out to check on the kits....they were buried deep under hay? the box is 12x12x24, As I said before, I moved them to the back of the box where "the nest" was. I nice hole with fur. This morning it's as if she shoveled and packed all the hay in the box...

Oreo, our calmest and sweetest Bun had a litter today! She seems to have only had 2 though...Is that normal....I have felt all around in the nesting box, and haven't felt any others. It's actually a nesting tunnel about two feet long, she made her nest deep in the box, but the kits were covered...

We had 3 failed attempts....then the other day my daughter had Oreo on her lap, laying on her back stroking her belly and you could feel kits moving around....I could feel them nudging around in there. The next 4 days I could not feel them at all no matter how hard i tried to palpitate, thought...

I have a few grasses...but I don't think I'm sure which you are talkin' about..... I do have some real tall grass myself I have been unable to identify...some thought it might be fakahatchee or something like that :) Take a picture and post it....We planted 6 bananas so far...from what I can...

They are doing well...it's been a hot summer...but the ventilation and shade seems to be doing ok...they stay inside during the heat of the day, ..... but are all out and about on the morns and eves. With the floor being wire now and the side door open....there is a good breeze flowing through...

Sticking with the oil. after cleaning ... a drop of oil every few days...things look very good...The stronger stuff scared me...so far so good...Personally I'm using only olive oil, but the first day I did place some antibiotic drops for swimmers ears...
