    Post birth, red urine?

    If you think she has retained a kit you can give lavender buds, that will help to expel anything still in there. Also add apple cider vinegar 2 Tbs. per gallon of water if she has an infection that should acidify her urine and help to clear it up.She will also drink more water that way, also...

    First Rabbit "kill"?

    I really like the Ballesta captive bolt gun sold on bunny rancher.com. It is reasonably priced and works well on rabbits up to 10 pounds. As with any dispatch method there is a learning curve. But I have no blood pooling in the neck and the kill is clean..they even have a video on the Web site...

    kit stiff rigid but still alive

    I don't know if it will help but I would bring it in, put it on a hot water bottle or low heating pad and stroke it, like you would a puppy.to keep it breathing.Inspect the area around the cages.. do you have spiders? how about wasps or hornets? A sting can kill a little one.. inspect his whole...

    I process fairly large bunns, weight wise..so I put them in a large bag in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. then on the 4th day either portion or vacuum seal whole and freeze. Some members here say they do not get rigor in their rabbits but I have always experienced it so... A great video on...

    Wet bottoms

    I have a doe that has recently, after having a litter now 6 weeks old, start to get urine discoloration on her legs.I think it is because of the heaviness in her mammary area. She is a heavy milker. I noticed it got worse when we stopped putting apple cider vinegar in her water. We ran out and I...

    Should Medical Care be a Right?

    I agree, they are supposed to work for us but they don't. They see themselves as the master and the people are the servants. We pay them too much and we pay them for life, but they still sell out to the highest bidder. I had thought at one time that all government positions should be voluntary...

    are garden leaves good for a bunny?

    I wouldn't feed tomato leafs and vines..I think the debate is still open on them though. If you look through the natural feeding section on the home page you can find lots of info and even pictures. I am still just scrounging to find sources of forage..I live in the high desert so it is not so...
