    One of my Black Rabbits must be a Super Steel

    Bred a broken Black Buck to a Black Doe who kindled babies early Tuesday and lookit what I got! because you know 6 solid Agouti marked kits would be the most logical - unless my eyes deceive me and these are not Agouti kits. :? The mystery will be in figuring out who is hiding the EsEs. I...

    Judging Cages/coops

    I wanted to share some photos of some Judging coops that a member of my local rabbit club made for our first show. I know there has been a person or two ask if there were online plans somewhere and as far as I know there really isn't any. If you'd like the details of this build I can get you...

    Q about Structure: Peeks too Soon.

    I understand what this is (when looking at it) but what exactly causes it? If you have rabbit that is over all nice but peaks a touch early what would you look for in a breeding partner to help correct this flaw... Other than a partner that does not peak early. What structural flaw are you...

    Hand Breeding /Table Breeding

    Does anyone Hand Breed / force breed / table breed their rabbits? It's a skill I'd like to have, I've seen diagrams but apparently I'm not doing something right. I'm unsure of exactly what I need to do and most of my bucks aren't real thrilled when I try and assist. I have a few does that...

    Angora Questions from a Dummy- mainly grooming.

    Our house pet English Angora Buck is a total doll baby - Love him to death and he is just a lot of fun. I know that many Angora keepers use a blower for grooming but with just the one fellow I don't see myself buying one - I do have a hairdryer that is for curly hair and it blows with more...

    Wonder what's going to happen.

    I had some New Zealand Red 9 week kits that I decided to offer for sale before I sent them to camp. Posted my ads and had a guy call and arrange to meet me at my home around 5:30 one evening. He wanted a buck to replace another he had to cull. On the phone the guy sounded sound and I was...

    Early Birth

    How early have you had a doe birth and still have viable kits? Have two does that are due next Tuesday/Wednesday one of them was very antsy yesterday even in the heat so I gave her a box (I usually don't put a box in until day 27/28). She nested all day yesterday and this morning she delivered...

    Oops- inside out cage.

    Let's say someone you know was building cages and maybe wasn't paying real good attention and kinda built it inside-out... Ah and that person needs to remove a good number of jclips any good (doesn't make a person cuss like a sailor) way to get that done... Or am I going to be cramming a...

    so happy - my first NZ Red babies

    No photos - sorry! - I know that's grounds for possible lynching :o but I plan on snapping a few this afternoon. I've had two red does since last summer and have been crossing them to my White Buck and have really enjoyed seeing all the colors - apparently my buck is broken and the cross...

    Too much fat - feed issue?

    I processed six 12 weekers the other day and found them to be full of internal fat - even fat deposits over the hips and shoulders - some kidneys were so coverd they were barely visible! My breeders have no issues and that are all on a ration, the grow-outs have always been free fed and I've...

    anyone ever use radiant barrier insulation?

    After hemming and hawing for a really long time on the building or buying of a barn I ended up purchasing a 18x21 carport.! I just had it installed yesterday and now the whole construction into the BunnyPort must start. (I also need to have a bonfire for all the pallets I've collected that was...

    Rabbits You Just Wouldn't

    ...touch with a 10 foot pole! ;) I watched the judging of a ton of Checkered Giants this weekend and after the first 20 or so I was pretty convinced that I would NEVER own such a um...'lively' breed :shock: I'm thinking the Judge's real job may be rattlesnake milker because he was quite...

    Treat or not? White on livers

    Dressed 5 rabbits this weekend two had white nodules and streaks on the surface of their livers I'd say about 10% of each liver was diseased. The other 3 were fine. All of them had a good amount of internal fat for 9 week kits - thought it was odd. Wondering if I should hold off until I can...

    Well That Was Educational (Ferral Hog)

    We've been sitting at home waiting on the ice to melt for the past few days and yesterday my Brother-in-law called me about noon. Wanted to know if I'd take some hog meat and I said sure! What I didn't realize was he meant it would arrive on the hoof :? My husband recently had surgery and...
