    Thinking about venturing into SF...

    Wow, amazingly I was at that website earlier today and didn't even think to check where they were located. They're only about two hours away from me, so I may end up going there when I'm ready to buy. Thanks for the info on the show too, it's about 4hrs away, but it might be worth it to be...

    Thinking about venturing into SF...

    I have so far been breeding some serious mutt rabbits and am trying to decide on a breed for when I go pure. I had thought about the rex, but with their slow growth rate I'm just not sure, so now I'm considering the Silver Fox (I love the idea of helping out a heritage breed and they have a...

    Standard Rex

    Where do you get the alum? I've asked at the feed store (which is where I'd heard you get it) and they looked at me like I was crazy and sent me to the canning section... perhaps I need to try a different feed store. Is there another name it goes by, and what do non-tanners DO with alum anyway?

    Recipe needed for Tough rabbits

    I forgot to mention that I also have a pressure cooker. That thing is a lifesaver when it comes to cooking on a budget. :) DLL, sadly the time I ended up with tough rabbit it was wrapped in bacon... give me a complex dish and I can make anything, try to cook something simple and it ends...

    Recipe needed for Tough rabbits

    I was given some 3-4 year old rabbits and am sending them to FC today. My fiance doesn't like the 'put it in the crockpot and cook till it falls apart then cover in BBQ sauce' foods (aka pulled pork sandwiches), but I do have a meat grinder. How in the world should I cook these...

    They live together and STILL no babies!!!

    I don't know about girls (I've heard that if they haven't bred by a certain age it becomes much more difficult) but I know that age is not an insurmountable obstacle for bucks... my little Bonsai (Netherland Dwarf) was eight or so when he fathered his first litter. Now I'm just waiting until my...

    Selling cages?

    Well, she does take credit cards, but not discover which is the only one I have. Didn't bother me when I went in as I was expecting to be able to pay her with what I had in the bank.

    Selling cages?

    I was planning to make myself a set of hanging cages, 30x72 2 hole (so 30x36 per rabbit) Top and bottom GAW 14ga 1x1/2 wire (so they could be flipped over every year or so to keep the floors from needing to be replaced as quickly) and all sides and dividers out of the same wire but 1"x1.5"...

    Trinity Oaks' grain-feed mix

    What about "soft wheat bran"... I know it's no where near whole wheat, but would it work? So far all I've found is that and the beet pulp with molasses. Oh yeah, and that the feed store I was expecting to have what I wanted is now nothing but an empty building and a 'for sale' sign. I'm going...

    Good cross with rex?

    Silly me. I saw an ad on CL for a free rabbit with cage and go to get it (just for the cage). Turns out the rabbit inside is a mini rex and now I'm in LOVE with the rex fur. Unfortunately it is crazy hard to find a standard rex around here, so I was thinking about looking hard until I find...

    Should I cull ?

    Thanks for all the advice guys. From the sound of it her leg is not broken, so I'll give her some time and see if it gets better on its own. Thankfully if it is something that she will need to be culled for after her next pregnancy her daughter will be ready to breed at that time and hopefully...

    Should I cull ?

    My best mamma bun has either pulled her back leg out of it's socket or broken it (I have no idea how to tell which without taking her to a vet). I have tried to gently work it back into place myself but have had no luck. It doesn't seem to be bothering her though. My question is this... how...

    Help! My rabbits leg seems to be out of its socket

    My rabbit seems to have pulled one of her back legs out of socket... I have no idea how and I don't know how to fix it. It is not causing her any pain, just hanging there limply. I am having difficulty telling if it is messed up at the knee or the hip. Please somebody let me know what I'm...
