    What are the correct terms for these colors?

    Just hoping I can get a little help on the correct terms for the different shades of Agouti in my nest box. I can see 2-3 different shades. One is your standard 'sandy' Agouti, the rest are dark but still have the Agouti ticking, yellow behind the ears and quite a few of them have lots of grey...

    What color are these babies?

    Mother is a heavily broken black tort doe (false charlie). Dad was a solid black buck. From his litter with another doe (this does sister) we know the buck carried harlequin. These babies look lighter than their broken black sibling and their color isn't even. They almost look blue with black...

    Are these Harlequin? ....if so, how did I get them??

    Can anyone tell me if these babies (1 day old) are harlequin? They are out of a solid black buck and a black tort VM doe. 3 out of the 4 babies looked like this. Does anyone have pictures of newborn harlequins to compare to? If they are not harlequin.. what do they look like to you? It was my...

    Maggie X T-Dog Litter (picture heavy)

    My other dog Maggie finally had her babies today Feb 3rd 2013 @ 2:30am. Making this day 34 for her! She had four babies too, but sadly one passed away shortly after birth :( I think she aspirated fluids as she was gasping for breath. I tried stimulating and warming her up for a good 20-30...

    How can I improve my herds diet???

    I raise rabbits for dog food, so I would prefer quick grow out rates and a little bit of fat on my buns come FC time. I would like my breeder rabbits to be lean but productive! Right now I am feeding Buckerfield's pellets. They are 12% protien, but the bag doesn't list the ingredients and I...

    Found a lump on my buck last night :(

    Found a hard lump on my favourite (and only) buck T-Dog last night :cry: It is on his back leg and about half the size of a golf ball - it feels very firm and attached to the tissue underneath. He is only 9 months old and appears very healthy otherwise. I'm very hands on with my rabbits, so I...

    After much research and saving of funds, I'm finally ready for the next (and exciting) step towards getting my meat rabbit project off the ground!! Due to my own poor DIY skills, I have been thinking that getting ready made cages may be the best option. Does anyone have any experience with...
