Did you get babies today?

Is he protected from rain outside? My rabbits are outside year round.

I have a couple of chef's choice electric sharpeners. They are kind of expensive but they get knives sharp!

It's probably not applicable for everyone, but I have been switching over to the clamp on food bowls and that pretty much eliminates feed waste for my rabbits. I use two on my doe cages. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/lixit-20-oz-stainless-steel-crock-676

I've got the tractor supply plastic trays and they seem pretty good. I just blast them with a hose and haven't had to scrape them. I use the TSC pelletized bedding in the trays, which I'm a huge fan of.

Bring a couple back for me :D

I use a hay rack from kwcages. It hasn't eliminated waste, but it's a lot better than laying the hay on the cage floor. I have just accepted that there's going to be waste 😅

Stationary looking at their food is preferable. I try to come in at an angle to hit their brain and spine at the same time. I can usually get right next to them while they are eating so it's easy to aim.

I processed 16 today using a .22 high powered pellet rifle. We use hay or lettuce and let them eat. They don't see it coming and it happens quick. It's pretty quiet, neighbors don't notice. I think it's roughly $200 for a pellet rifle that's strong enough, haven't had any failures to dispatch...

I don't have any does available, but I do have some pedigree Silver Fox bucks if you are still looking.

I was asking if the does are all related to each other, which it sounds like they probably are. Purebred as in something with a pedigree. Without a pedigree you have no idea what's really mixed in there. The bloodline you have might just produce small litters. I like Alaska Satin's idea of...

Are the Does related? If they are, I'd lean towards them being the problem. Personally I'd start with Purebred rabbits and go from there.

Another thing to consider when breeding, not every rabbit will be friendly. I've had a couple of grow outs that came from friendly parents, and they have friendly litter mates but they have no interest in human interaction and can inflict wounds when they are scared. I wouldn't feel good about...

Ear tattoos are very common. If you enter an ARBA show, a tattoo is required.

What breeds are you after? I've had a pretty easy time finding pedigreed rabbits around here.

That's a whole lotta bun 😂

Welcome, what breeds do you keep?

I love fried rabbit. looks great.

My Champagne buck must come from small bloodlines. He was the largest in the litter I picked him from and he's 8-9 lbs. His parents were similar in size.
