    Wet babies

    OK folks, I have some good news for you. The doe DOES NOT pee on her babies. What you see is the babies peeing after feeding. Think about it, what goes in must come out! And rabbits do not "potty" their babies like dogs and cats. When the bladder is full and a baby gets nudged, that bladder...

    stretched kit

    This is a weird one. Litter of 8 born 2/1. Nestbox stays in the house, kits are handled 2x per day and the nestbox temperature is monitored regularly. Last night, after evening feeding, I found one of the babies at the front of the nestbox and chilly. I warmed him up, plonked him back in the...

    Arrggh

    Temps in the mid90s today. My Satin doe one week away from kindling heat stroked on me and we lost her and 2 of the 3 kits she miscarried. The 2 that were born DOA were larger and didn't look "ready," but the smallest one looks like it might make it. The bad part is that we are forecast temps...

    Wanted to rearrange the cages, but not like this

    Well, about 3 weeks ago, I set up a new cage line for the growout bucklings. It is against the piece of corrugated tin I am using as a temporary fence (to keep roaming dogs out!) along the north side of the yard. We tied off the frame to a t-post so it would withstand the 50-80mph north winds...

    This is why I pull nest boxes!

    Day 5 and the kits were doing great, mom was feeding them and had plenty of milk, she pulled extra fur the day after kindling. It got chilly last night, but the kits were nice and toasty when I fed and watered just before sundown. Went out this morning to water and found 4 dead, chilled kits...

    Midwest Blizzard

    Well, we survived! :P We got 19" accumulation at my house even with all the blowing and I have a 3.5' drift in my back yard! We only had a power dropout for a minute, so didn't even have to light the kerosene lamps. I had just gotten them all cleaned and topped off from using them during the...

    New corral

    Well, I had always intended to make a wire corral for the babies inside, and I had even managed to get the wire panels cut and put together, but last night, the cardboard corral just wasn't good enough. The oldest are just 6 weeks old, but 2 of them were managing to jump high enough to get a...
