    Sick buck

    This morning he was sitting up, grooming himself and looked MUCH better! Less wobbly, more active, his ears are perkier and he had ate his whole bowl of oats and drank most of his bowl of water. I gave him more oats and refilled his water. I'll get more berries and plantain today and hope he...

    Sick buck

    Yesterday evening he looked a little better. I gave him some oats and he ate a little. He had drank a little from his bowl. I'm going to hunt for more blackberries today. He also ate some plantain yesterday that I had found.

    Sick buck

    My main Rex buck, the one I had posted about having what I thought were yucky scent glands is in bad shape. Yesterday he was very weak and lethargic. He barely ate his pellets, which I had to get a small bag of different feed because TSC was out of my usual feed and I was completely out. They...

    Rabbits not getting bred.

    What have the temps been like in the last couple months? How old are the does and did they produce kits before? The older a doe is the first time she's bred, the harder it can be to get her to become pregnant. What breed are they? Do they ever pull fur and nest as if they were pregnant?

    Impacted scent glands??

    No, just wire with plastic resting mats and a tile.

    Hot and Humid

    Those temps are not the norm for our summers and I think those temps only lasted a couple days. I didn't lose any during that really hot spell with the fans going but I know without the fans I would have lost a few. I think today it's 95 but heat index makes it feel like 100+.

    Impacted scent glands??

    My Rex buck, Lee, has had some issues with poor coat, weight loss, lack of appetite, which I guessed was mainly due to how hot it has been here. Nobody is exactly going crazy on feed lately. But yesterday evening I pulled him out and was trying to get some tufts of hair out and flipped him over...

    Hot and Humid

    I'm in Arkansas and it's hot here too. Back in June when our temps hit 120+ heat index I took two shop fans down to the barn and have ran them every day. The rabbits eat better when they are cool and it's rather nice not to sweat to death just feeding and watering lol.

    Parents being sued. No idea what to do now

    Just to update: Me and my husband had an offer to buy the house we were in the process of buying from my parents, but because my mom never took action when the bank/credit card company sued her, they put a lien on that house so when we sold it, it all went towards paying off what was left owed...

    Animal For Sale Pedigreed Rex in northeast Arkansas

    I have a litter of pedigreed Rex that will be able to leave on July 14. Sire is a broken blue, dam is REW. Color correct pedigrees. Complete pedigrees. Blue buck is a nice show prospect. Broken blue otters lack nose markings so they are only brood quality. Blue otter doe did not cooperate for...

    How old is too old to breed?

    Thank you for the info. I had never heard that about the Vitamin E but it's definitely worth looking into. I do feed 16% pellets that are a complete feed. I am also 99% sure neither doe is underweight. The white doe just barely meets the weight requirement. I have been raising rabbits over 5...

    How old is too old to breed?

    Not by me it hasn't and since everyone has different situations and things going on, everyone should be allowed to ask questions. I'm sure lots of people have asked about the same color, or had the same questions about lots of different things. Normally, if I have nothing to say in response to a...

    Jonesboro Rabbit Show

    Lol well I have been giving my show potentials a bit of BOSS trying to get them to blow their coat now, but of course, they don't like that lol. I doubt I get to any shows this year because money is too tight and we have to use my mom's car and it's about on its last leg. Truck needs a starter...

    How old is too old to breed?

    I have a Rex doe who has only had one litter in the year I have had her, and she came to me already bred. I got her last March and she will be 3 on April 21. The first litter she had for me, she pulled a ton of fur, made a great nest, had them in the box, raised a lovely litter of 6. After that...

    Going to have to switch rabbit feed :(

    So Orschelns sold out to TSC and our store became a Buchheit's. I just found out yesterday that the feed I have been using for the past year will not be carried by Buchheit and they are also switching brands for horse feed, chicken feed, etc so I am going to stop shopping there. My rabbits don't...

    3 week old kits randomly dying

    If I have this issue the next time she has a litter, I won't keep her. In the meantime I have stopped feeding hay and haven't lost any more.

    Just a typo. On their page it has the correct dates. Not sure I'll make it since a couple days before that I'll be stuck in Georgia a couple days for cancer appointments. With my luck anyway, my rabbits will decide to blow their coat then lol
