    Well Hurricane Harvey has been a trip.....

    We got a good deal of rain from Harvey, but nothing like what Texas and SW LA got. It actually sprinkled again just a little while ago. But now they're doing rescues in Tennessee. :(

    Well Hurricane Harvey has been a trip.....

    I am so sorry y'all are going through this! People here are still recovering from a year ago. I am so glad y'all are alright, but so very sorry that you're having to deal with it.

    Gravity feeders = wasted food

    Another solution, which worked for us, is to install a wire or spring in the top of the tray from one end to the other. It doesn't need to be tight. The rabbit tries to dig, but the paws keep catching the wire. This has always stopped them for us. :)

    Hand feeding newborn kits

    There is nothing like coming home and finding what appears to be a crime scene inside your rabbitry. A buck spraying red urine decorates the place like some chainsaw massacre. O.O

    my new baby loin head bunny

    Congratulations on the new bunny! This is a great place to learn rabbit care. :) I went into the post to see if I could fix it, and there is no image code at all.

    What ever happened to...

    Checking in, Homer! :) I posted this thread yesterday: sorry-for-vanishing-t30783.html Basically, we had a 1000-year flood some weeks back, and we've actually had some trouble getting onto RT for a good while. I need to get back up with MC. More info on the other thread! MSD has been...

    Sorry for vanishing!

    Yes, I had heard that area was flooding... I confess I don't know much about it because we've been helping with recovery around here. Much devastation, just unbelievable. We had no warning (weather reports called for a rainy week... we get that all the time), and a lot of places flooded that...

    Sorry for vanishing!

    I have been on very little for a while. I have come on and done a couple of things here and there, but not much. Things have been pretty nutty around here since the flooding some weeks ago. Our home did not flood. We got over 27" of rain on our land, but it all ran off as it fell. We bought...

    Dispatching with a pellet gun...

    Yes, or toward the nose. You can feel where the skull ends behind the ears. You want to put the gun right below that point.

    RabbitTalk Handicrafts Thread. What do YOU make?

    Nymphadora, you are so right! It is neat to be able to make what you want when it isn't out there already. :D And Zass, thank you for your kind words :oops: . And you are way too modest. I sit here scared to pull my pelts out of the freezer. :x Okay, finally got to take some pictures of...

    Rabbit overdue? What to do now

    Yes, since they are full-term, I think there's a chance. But I really don't know all the effects of lavender.

    Thoughts on 18% protein

    Whole corn is frequently used to clean out the machinery in a mill. The ingredients list is supposed to (by law, if I'm not mistaken) list everything that is in the feed. So if corn is not in the list, I'd guess that you just happened to get feed produced shortly after the machines were...

    if at first you don't succeed . . .

    Neat post! :) (Sorry about the hay, though!) It is great that the members here are so willing to share their experiences, good and bad. I have learned so much!

    Rabbit overdue? What to do now

    I have read that lavender will abort kits, but I don't know if that includes full-term, viable kits. Yes, it is true that rebreeding can stimulate labor. Preventing contact is not necessary. In fact, I would think that a "successful" mating would be more likely to stimulate the release of the...

    Rabbit overdue? What to do now

    You can give her a couple of fruit-flavored Tums, as sometimes a calcium deficiency can cause kindling issues. Do you have a ballpark figure for the date she was bred? If she goes another week or more, you might want to try giving her lavender. It is supposed to cause contractions that will...

    Ordered to Hospital. (22 month Post-Op UDATE)

    I'm so glad you're feeling better already, Grumpy, and pray that your recovery goes astoundingly well! I had to laugh when I got to the end and saw, like SuburbanHomesteader said, you're already plottin' and plannin'! :lol:

    RabbitTalk Handicrafts Thread. What do YOU make?

    Thank you! :P The swimsuit is inspired by this one, which Galadriel found as she searched for a swimsuit to buy: https://modli.co/hot-pink-silver-betty- ... tunic.html (her previous one was this one, with the skirt instead of the shorts: http://www.blair.com/e/womens/swimwear/ ... 4/9555.uts...

    kudzu vs. poison ivy??

    Yikes, Maggie!!! :o I had heard about burning and poison ivy, but not anyone's actual experience.

    kudzu vs. poison ivy??

    That's what I read, but the photos on this site: http://www.namethatplant.net/gallery_co ... 0with%20it show entire and lobed kudzu leaflets that are quite pointed. Apparently, kudzu will have bean vine tendrils. This is a good picture of them growing together, but they don't always look so...
