Welcome back!

Welcome to the forum family! Great place to be. Really nice and knowledgeable folks here.

Well the problem buck is on his way to be processed. Had quite the time getting him caught and in a cage. So glad seeing him go. New buck is younger. That pushes breeding back even farther. It will be ok though. Was able to pet him a little right out of the cage and he immediately went to...

That is fantastic! Glad they are happy to oblige😂. Wow. I am happy to read this method. I was under the impression one buck will breed one doe per day and you breed that doe a second time 12 hours later. Seemed odd to me since most animals breed multiple animals per day just fine. Your method...

Thank you. That’s what I am now leaning towards. Wasn’t my initial plan but makes perfect sense.

What is the ideal age of a Tamuk buck and Tamuk doe to start breeding? I've seen mixed ages. @RabbitsOfTheCreek stated above 5 1/2 was early but can be done. I am seeing a lot of different ages online and in books for different breeds. I want to get to breeding BUT don't want to push them. Would...

Thank you for all the advice. Much appreciated! I agree that I want easy going right out of the gate. Too many good rabbits to deal with that. I was wondering about the breeding attempt. He seemed fine with her mounting him he just got back around her and went at it he just never got the job...

I can not wait to try this! Such a long wait! 🤤

Welcome to the forum! Lots of great folks here full of helpful information.

We have some Black Australorps also. The best for raising chicks. We always keep a few to keep numbers up for the freezer. Actually have one right now raising some American Bresse chicks. She's not a consistent layer but will regularly go broody and allow me to put extra eggs under her for...

What kind of chickens do you have?

Chicken math is what we call that. 😂

Welcome to the forum!

Hello and welcome! 👋🏼

Welcome!

I have so much to learn! Rabbit jerky?!? I am in! Good to know about beef fat vs bacon. Bacon is a prized possession around here as they still don't make bacon only hogs..... 😂

Thank you. That's helpful. Actually makes sense on the nipples vs bottles etc. Sounds like you have a great setup. Keeping the water cooler is one of the challenges I am trying to work out with less effort. Thanks!

That was one of my concerns. Other than the large livestock I keep track of everyones feed and water consumption. Good indicator of a problem when there is a change.

You couldn't have covered it better. You nailed all my concerns and more. Thank you so much for taking the time to write all that information. I will be staying with my current set up. Thank you again for being so in depth in your response.
