This article states they may need as much as 3 times the food. https://www.purinamills.com/rabbit-food/education/detail/prepare-your-rabbits-for-changing-seasons#:~:text=Keeping%20rabbits%20warm%20in%20winter&text=Therefore%2C%20the%20amount%20of%20feed,on%20maintenance%20of%20body%20temperature.

Some can be underweight if they are bullied. If you see a rabbit not going at the feed you should check if it's getting enough to eat.

Well, I had a whole litter die on me after I gave them bell pepper. The mother was fine. Baby rabbits need to have the right bacteria in their guts to eat vegetables. If the mother was fed regularly with vegetables the babies MAY get the bacteria from her milk. If you must give babies veges...

My Coupons | Southern States Co-op Depending on the store, some have coupons and other don't. Some accept coupons even if it's not on their website. Usually coupons are good for a week and usually there's a coupon every month.

I use both 16% and 18% depending which is on sale. One Southern State dealer sells 18% premium pellets $20 for 50 pound bag. Each store sets its own prices. There are regular coupons if you buy more than $25 or $50. However Tractor Supply had a sale for a few weeks for the 16% Manor Pro at...

I have a group cage with 4 French Angora does. I open the door around noon and 2 would jump out within a minute. The other 2 don't leave even though the door is opened. Around 3pm I call the bunnies for feeding and the 2 does would come and jump in the cage to get at the pellets. I then...

I might be wrong but I take it to mean posting a 20 total of any messages anywhere. If you notice a profile will have message posted but don't break down which forums.

I probably have Phyllostachys nigra https://bambubatu.com/black-bamboo-phyllostachys-nigra-and-others/

Usually my scratches rarely draw blood. If it bleeds I just put pressure on it with a paper towel. Bites on the other hand often bleeds. I use the paper towel till the bleeding stops and often don't use a bandage unless it keeps bleeding. Most bites are accidents when my rabbits are hungry...

I had a doe once who kept nursing for about 3 months. She would leave the cage in the mornings but she kept coming back at night. Most of my does don't stop nursing after just 4 weeks.

The best IMHO is a good mouser barn cat. You do have to keep cages cat proof because a cat will reach into cages after baby rabbits. My cats don't bother adult rabbits but they love eating babies.

I think most hays are fairly equal except alfalfa because it's a legume with almost twice the protein as other hays. Timothy is slightly better hay for rabbits because it's tougher making it slightly better for wearing down teeth. I think it was the pet rabbit people that saw the health...

A small 2 string bale of local hay is $10. Standlee Grab & Go Timothy Grass Compressed Bale is $21.50. I'm trying to decide if it's worth paying twice as much for western hay and the convenience.

I guess I have smart rabbits or they] get thirsty enough to figure it out. You can check to see if they haven't been drinking and wet the nipple so they smell water.

Maybe it's too stressful to be separated and alone in a strange setting but less stress if you are still with your litter mates.

Sorry. I too was surprised to find this morning a favorite doe had died. Last night she seemed fine when I pet her. I think it was GI problem from feeding her a bell pepper.

Is it Black Friday or January White Sales?

Is there any danger of fly strikes from soldier flies?

BTW make sure their water haven't froze in freezing weather.

You can also just put your location in the message. If it's above freezing in the day and the low is midteens I'd close up in the evening. However I'd also do so if the high is around 20.
