Ok I will keep everyone updated. I put the next back in the box again and she is laying with them. I have had the rabbits over a year just started breeding. She didn't pull any fir until today. I got another doe pulling fir already and she isn't due for another week.

My first litter and her first also. She just had a litter of 3 on the wire wile I was at work. I moved her hair pile in to the nesting box and put the babies in there to but she's pulling the hair back out. What should I do?

I don't have a microscope.... He's not very friendly right now but I will try to get some pics.

I have a male rabbit with a crusty ear. I think it's mites. It looks as his ear is crusted shut with one giant scab. I googled ear mites in rabbits and read some things to try and other post say not to so I figured maybe someone on here has better experience dealing with mites and could give me...

Ok I think we got eat mites.... Usually when I get out there to feed the rabbits it's dark wether it's morning or night. I leave for work befor the sun comes up and get home after dark. I got home easily today and decided to try to breed againg and it ended with a nasty fight. I flipped him over...

My main reasoning for wanting to use ove was pricing and I want to make it movable as I plan to move in the next year. I'm not sure why they won't breen in the cages. I have Ben trying for almost a year and feel like I'm wasting money feeding the rabbits. I have 2 bucks and 5 does right now...

Thanks for all the info. I guess I'm going to have to save up some more money. I can't get these rabbits to breed in the cages so I figured I would try the colony setup befor giving up completley. I think wood would be cheaper then the t-post...

Im planing to build a 10x10 pen like the dogpens you can get at tsc but only 5-6 foot tall and will have fencing on the top and bottom. My question is could I use PVC for the poles or will the rabbits eat them? And will 10x10 be big enough for 2 nzw does and one nzw buck? Thanks

I'm planning to build a colony for 2 does and a buck. First question is what should implant for them to eat in there? And is there anything I can grow in the winter? We're in Georgia so it dosnt get to cold and if it does show it only last a few days. Currently it is in the 60s during the day...

Lol I hear ya. The wife and I were both "regular america. People" 2 years ago. The the price of meat started going up. We got a few chickens we raised for eggs then about 6 months later we got some to raise for meat. Then about 4 months ago we were turned on to rabbits for meat. Now last weekend...

very cool i am still new to meat rabbits and had a quick question. do you ever have problems with the rabbits trying to dig out? i have ben thinking about building a pen like that for the meaties to grow out in. thanks

Good luck to ya. Fire up the crock pot.

Shipping was slow but was expected (came from china) the t fittings are trash. Very thin and brake easy. The nipples are awesome and I'm about to order 2 more sets.

Quick update. My eyes started clearing up after about a week. I think it was just a reaction to the dander because I had never Ben exposed to rabbits before. I have had no problems for about the last week and a half. Thanks everyone.

Thanks for the input. As for fat we eat a lot of posta and cheap snacks as we are raising a 2 year old boy. The rising meat prices is driving me nuts. Me moved to ky iwith intentions of starting a farm. It looks as the inlaws have had a change of hart and realized what reality it and are planing...

About a month or so i bought 3 does and a buck. The wife didn't want me to start breeding until we ate one to make sure it is something we could use as a primary meat in our daily diet. 2 years ago if it didn't come from a grocery store we didn't buy it. Times have changed. Last night I...
