Rabbits are a bit different than any other animal as far as registration goes. In order to register your rabbits, they must first earn "legs"; you need three to be eligible for registration. These are received from winning Best of Variety, Best of Breed, Best Opposite of Variety/Breed, or...

Sounds like your doe is either not a New Zealand at all or she is a New Zealand crossed with something very small. Your doe is within weight range for a Florida White, which looks fairly similar to a NZ White. As others have suggested, if you're looking for 8-10 week old kits ready for butcher...

I would be HIGHLY surprised :o (and disappointed) if the breeder that you bought your buns from got offended or upset about you showing rabbits in the same area. As previously stated, the more rabbits in a class the better. They should be the first to congratulate you should your rabbits do...

We are raising Rex's for show and meat. Might just be my lines but they are growing out just as fast as my Cali's are. They are weighing between 4 and 5 pounds at 10 weeks. The pelts are looking pretty good at 10 weeks but are definitely better around 15-16. I couldn't get away from the...

If you were up for a drive to the Lake Tahoe area, I have a Californian buck for sale. Not sure how young you're looking for; he's a senior but has only sired a dozen litters at most.

Thanks for the input Sky. Here's a different picture of rabbits #5 and #7. They were a little more cooperative today. It definitely makes them look a little better when they're posed better today. #5 #7

I have a litter of standard Rex's that were all born on 7/24/2014, making them 15 weeks old tomorrow. I am getting ready to start selling them and am not sure which to possibly keep and which might need culling. I'm rather new to rabbits and very new to Rex. The first four are bucks and the...

Congrats on the new litter!!!!

I need a Californian buck. If anyone in the Northern California/ Northern Nevada area has a buck that they are looking to sell please get in touch with me. Thank you.

I was afraid of that. Is there any way to treat it?

One of my bucks has recently started having difficulty breathing. He doesn't have any snot/mucous at all and I can't find anything that could have caused it. He seems to almost be gasping and sometimes has his mouth open while he is breathing and I can hear kind of a clicking sound as he...

Good job on saving the baby. Hope she does better with her next litter. Definitely glad you had another momma to foster to.

Well, all of your advise seems to have paid off. Andrea had her babies this morning IN THE NESTING BOX. She had four little babies. Thank you all.

I will try moving the nestbox. It didn't even occur to me to put it where she wanted to make her nest. Thank you both for the input and advice. I really hope to not lose her first litter. Hoping her sister is a little quicker to catch on as she is due tomorrow as well.

One of my does is apparently getting close to kindling, judging by the fact that she is pulling hair from her stomach with earnest. That part is great. The bad part is that despite my giving her a nestbox with shavings and hay, she has decided that the corner of the cage is the best place to...

Congrats on the new popples!!

Fingers crossed. Hoping for lots of healthy popples.

They are staying pretty warm, course that's probably because my bunnies are spoiled and live in a bunny barn with a heat lamp. I don't like having to mess with freezing water or any of that. Plus since I'm breeding year round I figure that the warmer that I can keep their barn the less I have...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! It's so neat to see new babies.

Nice job on the VERY productive day. If you ever need a hand I am only an hour away and would certainly come up and give you a hand processing, though I don't know much yet. My first litter is just over a week old, so I still have a while before I get to process any of my own.
