Welcome to Rabbit talk! Glad you've joined us!

I am fairly new here so I hope I am not overstepping but I am very sorry about the loss of your mom. Sending prayers for you and your family as well as some extra hugs. 🤗

Welcome to the forum! Great group of helpful folks here. Jump on in and enjoy!

Welcome to RT. Glad you've joined us. I know others will comment but I have read a lot of issues with doing adult rabbits with cervical dislocation. It's a lot harder on older rabbits. I've read here many use a pellet gun or 22 on the older rabbits. Myself I will be doing my younger rabbits...

Very good to know. Thanks for warning about this.

Welcome to the RT! Glad you've joined us! Stick around. You'll love the folks here.

Makes sense. Thanks! Hearing that the hopper popper isn't as good on older ones I'd like to be able to use this method in the future.

Alaska Satin said exactly what I was going to say. I have moved a hen that I put chicks under but only after a night with them and she's taken them. I usually do this because of our set up. However I can lock the hen in with the new chicks under her in the nest for the night then relocated them...

I have not dispatched a rabbit with a rifle. Where is the proper aiming location on them? If they are head down eating is that the best angle to get them at?

Yep! That right there is why I wanted plain rabbits. At least to start off with. Those would be hard for me. At least until I'm in the swing of processing. Those are adorable

Great options. I hadn't considered tattooing with only a trio but it is something I am now considering. Especially with all 3 looking basically the same. I have tattoo pliers for cattle. Not sure if that's the same or not. Will look into this as well. Thanks!

Thanks! I'm looking into it as an option.

Those clips are genius. That would be perfect for marking the cages. I have quite a collection of calendars that just keeps expanding. 😂 Each species has their own. Just not enough room for everyone on one. I wasn't sure on digital either. I actually hadn't found a digital one yet. But I am...

I saw that one last night. Good to know it's worth it. Thank you!

I'll look into that program. Index cards are a good idea. Thanks!

I currently only have a trio and intend to keep numbers under 6 for breeders. Preferably a trio only but you probably know how that goes. I've been struggling with the trio as they pretty much all look the same. 😂 I'll do an online search. Thanks!

That's why I got plain old white tamuks. Hoping that's the case with the babies.

How do y'all keep track of your rabbits, breedings etc. I see cage cards on KW's website but holy moly the shipping costs are silly for shipping a couple packages of cage cards and a couple card holders for the cages. Got me wondering how y'all keep track of breedings etc.

Sounds like it went well. You'll figure out what works best for you as time goes on. Great job pushing through. Nothing wrong with asking for help. The first ones are usually the hardest. As time goes on you'll get more comfortable, confident and figure out what works best for you and the...
