    Not new, but returning!

    Have you tried straw? It's technically eatable but shouldn't be as palatable as hay. Shouldn't... doesn't mean the crazy thing won't eat it anyway...

    Interesting "Herbal Medicine" Video on Facebook

    I'm not familiar with the "sand ginger" but regular ginger is supposed to help with digestion and can help limit bloating, which both may help with eating more and gaining more weight from what they eat. Turmeric is supposed to help with inflammation (including in the gut), and anxiety which...

    Vorpal rabbit

    I believe they were talking about when housing in a group. When you house a group of animals they need more room than if you are housing them individually. For example, a mature horse of average size can live comfortably in a 12x12 stall (with coming out for exercise, but their general living...

    Close-up hair photos for banding/ticking

    Broken isn't recessive, so the buck being broken is why you got broken kits, her not being broken means she is enen meaning not carrying the broken. 1 copy of En gives broken, 2 copies give Charlie.

    Close-up hair photos for banding/ticking

    Just had a thought. They make white (or nearly white) masking tape. Maybe put some of that, sticky side up, and then you can just stick the individual hairs down to that and make them behave?

    When to start weighing

    Awesome! I just checked those forms out and that looks like a great way to handle things!

    Silly Nail Question

    My issue with trying to use the nail caps would be that they would come off fairly quickly, we did use them on a cat for a while and she would pull them off sometimes and cats are less likely to chew on plastic / rubber than a rabbit would be. That said, if you just wanted a day or 2, I don't...

    Heya Folks!

    Nope, no signature.

    What would you call these odd colors?

    Unless the New Zealand has Satin somewhere in his pedigree, you should get 100% normal coats because the satin coat is recessive and only shows when you get 2 copies. If you breed a Satin cross buck back to a Satin doe, you should get 50/50 normal and satin coats out of that litter.

    Breeding and Income Tracking

    Ok, I found where i saw that. Looks like it's the deluxe version but here is what it says: "Stores data in your (free) Microsoft OneDrive account. This eliminates the need for backups and allows multiple computers to share the data. It is NOT intended for simultaneous data entry, but each...

    Breeding and Income Tracking

    It says it links up to a cloud server so you can use more than 1 computer so no, it shouldn't be a problem.

    Breeding and Income Tracking

    Does it have anything to reimburse it's self for meat harvested? Or would I need to make a "sale" and "pay" myself whatever I'm planning on charging myself for meat? And do you know if it has wool sales? Neither are a make or break situation, just curious.

    Breeding and Income Tracking

    That looks amazing! And $89 is basically nothing

    Does this plan sound workable?

    I do understand these points, but the reason for the 3 feet is that the floor wire I can find local only comes in a 3' roll and I really don't want to have to spend that kind of money just to cut a foot off of the edge all the way down the roll. Plus, to get a 2' cage to a similar footage would...

    Does this plan sound workable?

    Ok, so, I'm seriously planning on getting rabbits in the spring. The goal is meat, fur, and fiber. I have a source for Silver Fox nearby and affordable so I'm thinking about getting some of those first and use them for meat and fur, I would like to also get Rex at some point and Angora (German...

    Hold On

    Yeah, our winter weather is typically 1-2 snowfalls of 4 inches or less (last year we got nothing) and usually no more than a day or 2 at a time below freezing (and when I say that, I mean the highs are around 30), last year we hit 12 for 1 day, this year we were that cold for 2-3 days before it...

    Hold On

    Yeah.. though my southern rear kind of expects that kind of weather out of Alaska.. but I live in the land of sweet tea... we shouldn't have to thaw out hoses and use torches on water hydrants down here! We deal with 100 degrees with 80% humidity in the summer to get away from those cold temps!

    Hold On

    Our weather is nuts, we have gone from 11 degrees to 70 back down to 48 in about 2 weeks.

    So, exactly what does a cull buyer do with all the culls?

    Possibly snake food as well. I know that you can wholesale out feeder animals to stores.
