    question about skin color

    Thank you for explaining the "blues" and adding the photos and links. I had a few blue/lilacs in my Rex line ,plus the blue satin I had. I really like shaded and chins.

    question about skin color

    I'm still confused a lot. If it is say, blue agouti.... check for the basic agouti markers. Agouti controls the colour pattern (or lack of pattern) . Look at a photo of an Agouti hair pattern... are there rings? @Alaska Satin @MsTemeraire I am on my phone which is always correcting my...

    My black kit is turning brown. Could you help me figure out his colour?

    P.s there is a "sheen" to the coats of the "chocolate" which due your timely reminder of the "C" properties;have me expecting another change. 😆

    My black kit is turning brown. Could you help me figure out his colour?

    Alaska, I love the depth of your knowledge and your eloquent, straight forwardness. You always give me something to think about, something new to learn. Thank you. I did put sable point on the pedigrees for the does as well as broken sable point for Cracked Pepper. It did throw me that someone...

    My black kit is turning brown. Could you help me figure out his colour?

    What would that mean pertaining to the "Chocolate " kits of Cracked Pepper? Is he not a broken sable or broken siamese sable? Someone said he was a tri...but I've never heard that term used with a New Zealand. Although we had a good time debating CC's colouring.

    My black kit is turning brown. Could you help me figure out his colour?

    A picture of CCs kits at 7 months old they were born lìght and the shading grew in. Same with Cracked Pepper. But half the fun is the unexpected. Cracked Pepper (buck) just sired his first litter with steel tipped doe and the kits came out as 3 chocolate, 3 broken black ,and 2 broken chocolate...

    Marketing rabbits - what we've been working on + any advice you may have.

    Craigslist, sometimes local newspapers have a section that is free for $50-$100 and under sales. Local feedstores ,etc. I liked your website. However,it took me a bit to discover where you are located.

    Old but new

    Welcome to the forum! I raise New Zealand and Rex in Montana. I prefer the New Zealands though as a meat rabbit. In my area I sell more Rex as pets.

    18% to 16%

    I've always fed 18%. However, after I switched from my old brand to a new brand; my growth rate increased. So if one were to decrease from 18% to 16% in the future; my question would be "What other notable changes are in the feed?"

    New rabbits... size and when to breed

    I'm feeding pellets 18%... I kept them on the same local feed that the breeder raised her rabbits on. They were doing alright but not as well as a broken black I had sold to another breeder. I compared the siblings and mine were noticeable lighter than hers.... rew 666 BB 6.08 I changed pellets...

    A warning to others so you don't make my mistake

    I use corn starch. Thank you for sharing your learning experience. I am currently not showing.. not sure I will show, but one of the kids might choose to do so next year. I always appreciate helpful information. Thanks again!

    Weather-based color changes?

    I have 2 sable does about 5.5 months old. One,Frosty Delight is lighter,with a smoother coat than her sister, Swiss Mocha. Swiss Mocha has become darker, with those random dark spots of smut across her back side, perhaps on her face.. Definitely not her best look. I don't have any recent...

    They did say it was thick,white and difficult to get it all out with their flushing. Thank you! I like that site myself. I will remember to share it with them.

    Doe with swollen lump

    Thanks for the input. I don't have any experience with this rabbit's health issue. I am passing on the info. I decided it was a good learning experience for me though. Thanks again!
