sorta depends on how strong they are feeling, though if the poop is really dry, taking a pair of scissors to trim some of it off won't hurt them none. just be careful not to cut the skin!

definitely a mix. :)

you can take a bit of cornstarch and rub it into their coats to help clean them up and gradually increase their feed intake. I find rabbits bounce back fairly quickly if under good care.

welcome to the best rabbit forum around.. :)

good stuff!

I've been surprised at how much I'm enjoying this litter despite the 100's of babies I've had over the years. :) it's a good thing. :)

You'll have to give us an update after the show. :)

agree with the above.

welcome to the best rabbit focused place online! :) Friendly and knowledgeable folks to be found here!

you can use cattle ivermectin on rabbits. ONE drop at the back of the neck on the skin.

and a hearty welcome to you from rather dreary Ontario. :)

okay, my creep feeders are simply flat, low-lying ceramic dishes.... like what you'd use for pickle or candy dishes I think? Most I have picked up from free piles on garage sale days. My does don't tend to mess with them beyond shoving them around and they only hold enough to get kits...

since I tip my nestboxes at 10 days --- 12 day old kits getting out and wandering isn't a big deal to me. :) I tip the the box, leave a wee bit of the mess of the litter in it, put in a wee bit of straw (cause momma tends to eat it anyways) and call it done. The kits will huddle together if...

feeding is one of those difficult to weigh out question. Honestly I NEVER free feed. For the following reasons 1. I've been raising rabbits for about 20 years and have done free feeding and measured feeding. Free feeding in MY HERD causing digging out of pellets. Anything they don't eat...

that colouration means it's not a new zealand. Might be a new zealand mix. All I know about Tamuks is they are heat tolerant and come in a variety of colours. If you want a variety in your colours.... go with the tamuk.

The ones I have are built like little meat bricks. Very solid animals. So I'd say similar to mini rex. They are a mini rex sized animal.

start with good quality meat rabbits, and then feed them well. Most will tell you unlimited feed is the way to go, but I find mine grow as fast on measured feed.

cheapest hay is to buy it by the bale. I found a farmer by going to facebook, finding a farming group in my area and then asking "looking for horse quality hay near where I live" and then people messaged me.

if looking for a smaller meat rabbit you could also consider the dutch rabbit. good rabbits with an excellent carcass and small enough for the pet crowd as well.
