    Sick rabbit?

    Thanks, MaggieJ! :) I went over there again tonight and my sister said she got him to eat some of the hay, oatmeal, and strawberry leaves. I told her what you said about the water, so we switched him to a water crock and she'll try adding some tea for him. He's not a wool breed (he's a meat...

    Sick rabbit?

    Okay, I'm asking this question for my sister. She doesn't raise rabbits but has owned a pet one for the last four or five years, and now she's concerned about his health. My sister contacted me a few days ago saying that her rabbit has been "acting strangely" and she's worried he might be...

    How to tell condition by feeling backbone?

    This PDF explains how to check a rabbit's condition by feeling the backbone and ribs. Basically, you should be able to feel the bumps of the spine, but without the bumps being too pointy or pronounced. If you can feel it too easily, the rabbit may be underweight. If you can't really feel the...

    American Chinchilla - What I need to look for?

    The ARBA requires a three generation pedigree for registration. This includes the parents, grandparents, and great grandparents. For each rabbit listed on the pedigree, you'll need to provide the name (or ear number), color, and adult weight. If you're starting from scratch, it would take three...

    American Chinchilla - What I need to look for?

    You can show them without pedigrees, you just can't get them registered without pedigrees. (Which means that you can't earn grandchampion legs.) If they're still kits, then they're definitely not registered -- rabbits have to be six months (and the minimum required weight) to be registered...

    Theo the Lionhead Update

    Aw, Theo is adorable! :) Glad to hear he's doing well. Try giving her some wood blocks and chew toys. She might just be bored or begging for attention. I let my rabbits play in their exercise runs whenever the weather is good enough, and one of the bucks has started chewing on his cage door...

    Rabbitry names!!

    That's such a cool rabbitry name! Unfortunately there isn't a very interesting story behind my rabbitry's name. It's called Shadow Creek Rabbitry. When I'm not with my rabbits, I'm writing my stories and one of my (many) pennames online is Winter Shadow. And my rabbitry is located next to a...

    Problems breeding a French Angora

    You should shear the doe before trying to mate them again. Angora rabbits' long wool can cause problems during mating and during birthing.

    Doe won't eat oats

    Thank you for your help, MaggieJ! :) Tried adding a few pellets to her bowl and she immediately ate every one of them, but left the oats in the bowl untouched! :roll: Guess I'll just have to give up on the oats and slowly reintroduce the pellets. It was some old-fashioned oatmeal from...

    Getting them to use a bottle

    I recently acquired two new rabbits -- a three year old doe and a four year old buck -- they'd both been raised on water crocks. I put water bottles on their cages and showed both of them where to go for the water. The buck figured it out in a few minutes; the doe less than a half hour later...
