They might be different rabbits. I thought they were the same. I was trying to cheat and not take new pictures. I rescued 100 rabbits in January and it was tricky to keep everyone straight. Here's new pictures.

No. He looks solid black until you see him in the light and realize there are large brown patches intermixed in the black.

Grandfather on both sides was a broken- black spots on white Grandmother on mom's side was broken-brown spots on white Mom is Charlie- almost no black on white Grandmother on dad's side was broken -tuxedo coloring almost all black, white dulap and belly Dad is all black with some brown.

The parents and grandparents of this litter were given to me. I was told they're rex, but clearly they're not 100% because the fur is too long. Neither the parents, nor grandparents of this litter had blue eyes. So I'm trying to figure out if it's just an illusion that they look blue. Thanks...

I have several New Zealand White TAMUK litters. 2 litters kindling this week. 1 litters 5 weeks old. 2 litters 7 weeks old. $40 each I also have some rex crosses (adults and kits). 4 week old New Zealand (with a little Flemish giant mixed in) also available. Just North of Gainesville Florida...

We found wagerers on Amazon that have a bowl as the base but use a bottle. They come with 17 oz bottles which isn't enough, but 33oz smart water bottles fit. In some ways they're a pain to clean, but the rabbits drink more from them than regular bottles and they don't spill like bowls do...

Tractors are nice, but there are just too many parasites in Florida for ir, in my opinion, ticks, fleas, ear mites, worms.... plus wild rabbits here have some diseases I don't want in my herd. I'm glad it works for others though.

Thank you!

My "NZ Red" doe is clearly not 100% NZ, based on color, but especially based on this last litter. I'm certain dad is 100% NZ White TAMUK. I see 3 blacks. I'm not sure what the other 6 are. (The 1 REW in this litter died yesterday or today.)

I realize this thread has been dormant a while, but not too long. It came up in a search, I thought I'd chime in. Where we live in Florida, free-ranging isn't really an option. There are too many parasites and predators. We've done rabbits, chickens, ducks, quail, geese, guinea hens, and...

Mt thought was to keep a buck from a January litter to breed in summer. I've read young bucks don't have as many issues. Then when fall comes, he goes to freezer camp. The Rabbitry Center on YouTube created boxes for their bucks to escape the heat in. It works in MI. Not so sure about in down...

The laws on animal sale ages are set by the states. I know in FL the law says rabbits sold for PETS must be 8 weeks. Rabbits sold for FARMING don't have restrictions on age.

Thank you!

That's certainly a different idea id never heard of. If they typically only nurse once a day though, doesn't that mean they would all be under fed?

3 does kindled today. 24 kits in total! Alvi - 1st time mom, NZ TAMUK white, 6 kits, then she died Affra - 1st time mom, NZ TAMUK white, 9 kits Nannie - experienced mom, Cali/NZ, 9 kits (All the dads are NZ TAMUK whites) Alvi kindled first. Nannie kindled a couple hours after Alvi died...

That's What the flaxseed and chia seed do although mosr people ive seen post online suggest apple and carrot or banana. But the flax and chia can make up 6-40% of a rabbit diet and still be healthy according to the studies I've read. Too much Fruit has consequences. Treats are a good way to...

I've found flax seed or chia seed are good binders. When you add water to flax or chia seeds (even if they're ground into flour) it makes a good binder and they're good for rabbits

In the future, you can try hippity hop express or stop flop and roll. They do rabbit transport.

Wow @Alaska Satin .thank you for your story and suggestion.. Nature is pretty amazing sometimes. I was planning on wrapping the bottom of the cages with hardwire cloth (it's what I have on hand) today. The cages we used 12 years ago had 2-4" solid steel bars around the bottom, so it was never...
