    Correct ivermectin paste?

    Is this this correct ivermectin paste to use on rabbits? The back of course says for horses only. Thank you in advance! The pic won't post... It's ivermectin 1.87%

    Retained kit plus new babies?

    I have a young himi ND doe that was expecting her first litter. On day 32 she had one baby get stuck and my son and I helped her to deliver it, dead of course. I palpated her and could tell there was one more baby still in her. I expected her to deliver it soon, but after a couple of days she...

    Breed ID help, please. :)

    A previous customer of ours sent my co owner this pic today. They found this rabbit running loose and caught it. They said it weighs 5 - 7 pounds but seems bony and malnourished. I'm not familiar with a lot of the larger breeds so I was wondering if anyone could tell us what breed it is? Or is...

    They're taking over! LOL

    I currently have 24 baby bunnies in my laundry room! I've even got some litters combined to save room. Don't have room for that many nestboxes in there! LOL I have 8 more does bred too! But, 2 of those are first timers and 2 others have yet to give me live babies, so no guarantees there. It...

    Flemish litter color help :) *Update*

    I bred our Frosty Flemish buck (who was out of a Sandy) to our Sandy doe (who was out of a light gray). I don't have pedigrees on either one. I was just told what their mothers were. We've got 6 babies born today and 2 are completely white and the other 4 are black with pink bellies. Do we have...

    Can a himi hide steel?

    Ok, so I've been trying to figure out how this happened for over a year now. I bred my black himi doe to my broken opal buck ( when I first bought him I thought he was blue tort, had I known he was agouti I wouldn't have bred those two! ) My buck, I now know, is A aT B_ C_ dd Ee. When bred to...

    Question for you mouse people! :)

    My 12 year old son is wanting a mouse for a pet. We've done the hamster thing and they either don't live very long, or are mean or both! LOL I remember reading on here where some of you said that mice were much nicer than the hamsters. Is that true? Also, do we need to get a particular type of...

    Is this a black otter? More pics page 2 :)

    This baby is out of a broken black otter bred to an orange. It seems to have a lot of tan on it. Does it just have a lot of rufus or is something else going on? Thanks! :D

    Do I give her another chance??

    I have a 3.5 year old Holland Lop doe, that is frankly one of the sweetest rabbits I've ever owned. I call her Clara, and she's a gorgeous broken black. I bought her this past summer from I breeder I know and trust. Clara has had several successful litters for the other breeder. I've bred her...

    Can enteritis be related to protein %?

    Since last winter I have kept everyone on 18% feed. I found out that a breeder that I trust and has awesome stock, uses 16%. So, after much thought and debate with my rabbit business partner and friend, I started buying a lower %. Our feed mill has 15% though instead of 16%. At first everything...

    Tilted head, pregnant doe - Update

    I have a little Siamese sable Netherland doe expecting her second litter on the 21st. I noticed the other day that she looks and feels a bit thin. She's a feed scratcher so I don't keep a lot of food in her feeder but she gets plenty. Then I noticed that her head is cocked to the side! She's...

    Netherland Dwarf brood doe

    I have a 1 year old false Charlie, BUD, chestnut Netherland Dwarf. She is currently bred to my orange buck. If she has live babies I'll give you the sire's pedigree too. She is not a pet. She has some cage aggression and needs to go to a serious breeder only. She has nice type and is out of...

    I've got to stop free feeding! But, how much...

    do they really need? :oops: I've got Hollands that are juniors, seniors, pregnant and nursing. Same for my Dwarfs. I know the moms with babies eating pellets need to be free fed but I'm assuming the others do not. I also have a senior Flemish buck and a 5 month old Flemish doe. Oh, and one...

    Sick mama with nearly 3 week old kits- Update! :)

    I found my ND himi doe (my very best producer and mama!) lying in the nest box today. She's very listless and seems a little shaky and wobbly. Her bum is soaked in pee. She has 4 of her own babies and a foster HL baby that she's raising. The babies all seem to be in perfect health. Will they be...

    Our very first show...a success! :)

    Went to our first show last night. It was an ARBA show held on the fairgrounds during fair so there were lots of rabbits everywhere! We took 12 rabbits (oh my...wish I'd known just how much paperwork there is to fill out! LOL) and ended up with ribbons for all but one. The kids were just...

    Virgin buck, bleeding penis, what the???

    I bred our orange ND buck today for the first time. I let him have an older, docile doe for his first time. He never acted like anything hurt and was successful three times, but he appeared to be bleeding from the tip of his penis. I'm positive it was coming from him and not the doe. I have...

    Tattoo day! Wish us luck...

    Well, today my friend and fellow breeder are planning on tattooing about a dozen rabbits. There is an ARBA sanctioned show at a local county fair this Wednesday and most of my rabbits don't have tattoos! We practiced on a couple of our brood animals the other day with our new KBTatts tattoo pen...

    Freebie Mini Rex :) *Pic Added!*

    So, a couple of teenage girls that bought pet rabbits from me contacted me this past week and said they caught a rabbit that has been running loose in their neighborhood for a couple of months. They asked if I'd take it and find it a good home and I agreed. I believe what they found is a Mini...

    Got our business card done!

    My sweet husband has spent all afternoon working on our business card! I think he did a great job. It's exactly what I had pictured in my mind! :) Update: the middle section of the business card containing phone numbers has been blanked out intentionally due to moderator's request. :)

    Check us out! :)

    We finally got a facebook page done for the rabbitry. I'm not the best photographer and my friend and I aren't great at posing the rabbits, but it's not too bad. :) I don't know if this link will work or not... https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Blueb ... 9178733670 If not I guess you can just...
