    Help with chinchilla Mini Lop Show standards

    You might want to look at more pictures before purchase. That Mini Lop is awfully young to know type right now, if you are getting on for show. Best time to get a really good idea is 10-12 weeks preferably. A nice adult is also a better option because there aren't any surprises. The color on...

    How much are French Lops?

    They can go for a bit higher than the normal rabbit just because they take more to feed and raise. So probably looking around $50-$100. I see show quality usually go no less than $75 and upwards to $125, sometimes more, but they have to be nice!

    Progress!! AND, how much hay will we need??

    I don't really feed hay, but every once in a while, I pass it out before I strip the rabbitry to put down new shavings. I usually buy 1 bale and it last my herd a while for obvious reasons. It needs to be stored correctly or it will mold/go bad. When I pass out hay, I go through about 1- 1/2...

    Anyone going to the CA. State R&CBA?

    How awesome is that! Sounds like it is going to be fun! I wonder if this is something I can bring up at our next club meeting. I think breed presentations would really help new and old breeders near us :)

    What Pet Rabbit forums have taught me

    I'm not 100% against them, but I enjoy it here,because like others have said, it's practical. I'm glad people here understand that they are dual purpose . Pet sites can be helpful,if you have them strictly as pets, but you might have some nazi rabbit group pick apart the things you do and harass...

    Breeding Siamese sables in lion head help please

    I would be careful on how you purchase. Unless that one breeder with top line lionheads In the background is familiar with good type, doesn't mean you can't get a cull.A big issue I seen with the Lionheads right now is that a lot of people offer the pedigree on all babies and reserve them before...

    Do you talk to your rabbits ?

    When I had Jack ,my indoor pet rabbit, we taught each other a lot. He knew the time I got up and the time I went to bed. He would lick me to get up for breakfast in the mornings and when my mom fell and broke her ankle, he alerted me by pacing loudly in his cage. He used to jump on my labtop...

    Do you talk to your rabbits ?

    I do :) I also play music when I'm in the Rabbitry. They seem to enjoy it If they aren't facing me, I kiss at them and tap the floor near them. Usually they aren't very startled that way and they turn around to face me.

    Why I cannot advocate "pet" related rabbit websites...

    It's sucks cause not many vets know a lot about rabbits :/ there's a rabbit magazine at pet stores and stuff that pushes for people to do routine vet checks with their rabbits. Like it will do so much next to emptying your wallet since they are considered "exotic" *facepalm* Had one of my...

    Quality of Feed... GI issues

    I'm paying about $18.50 per bag with Pen Pals 15%. I noticed that my rabbits have changed dramatically since we switched from Manna Pro Pro ($17.50). I couldn't get weight on them with Manna and had to feed so much... the swap to Penpals and I consistently feed each rabbit 3/4 cup with no...

    critique a jr mini rex doe for me please

    Beautiful color! I love dilutes :) I'll do my best to give you feedback, since she's not posed 100% correct, so a lot of things can change the true look of an animal in a picture :) From your pictures, I do appreciate her topline and her ears balance with the body. Good head, I want it a...

    Foreign Rabbit Breeds

    Thuringer looks like the US Cinnamon and Fauve de Bourgogne looks like a Trianta... notice they seem unique mostly in color,but not so much as a breed as a whole. They are interesting though! The Miessner Lop looks like silver fox minis, but with way better ticking than those seen in the us...

    Saying goodbye to Rabbits!

    So sad to see you leave! If your heart isn't in it though, they can become a chore and you might burn yourself out for good. Glad to see that the Mini Lops are in good show hands and that you can enjoy upcoming adventures in your life. Goodluck with your new adventure! :)

    Pet or show breeders, with experience please?

    You can breed the two, just make sure they really compliment each other nicely! It's a great way to "set" genes. (good and bad) Example: if they are both on the weaker/finer boned side, I wouldn't breed them together, because you might get very poor bone, but intensified and you might start an...

    Colour ID help

    Welcome to RT! :D Yep, you have what we consider Holland Lops :) that are certainly chocolate based. You have a chotolate otter, chocolate tort, and this broken looks to be a chocolate chestnut, but unfortunately, the lack of color makes it a little difficult. You may need to wait for a more...

    Snowshoe Hare

    I wish that was a show breed and didn't molt off the coat in the warmer months LOL They are so beautiful. I've only noticed 1 cotton tail venture to our backyard, but that is the only one I've ever seen. :)
