    ARBA FB page 'rant' about KY

    OMGosh, Got home late Sunday night from "Loserville" as my 12 year old grandaughter named it! Absolutely chaotic and frustrating, but the breed clubs and volunteers stepped up and we all got through it. Spent 2 plus hours filling coops with pineshavings on Friday. Then searched up an down rows...

    Best pellets for the price.

    I have used Pen Pals 16% (hollands, dwarfs) and 18% (NZ, Cali, Elops) for several years and liked it alot. Very consistent feed. But have to travel 45 plus minutes to get it. Started our meat breeds on Rowe 16/18% protein, 3.50% fat about 5 months ago. Litters have done awesome, nice hard...

    Several Questions Breeding/kindle time

    I would try to rebreed all the does at one time...or in the same day. All of our small netherland dwarfs kindle on days 30,31,32. Rarely do they go over unless we have a dead litter or all peanuts. @ day 12 to 14 I palpate does and try to rebreed if I feel they are not prego. It has taken me...

    Oh My Gosh!!! Why Are His Poops Like This?!

    Have you treated the litter for coccidia? Sometimes one in the litter will have a higher load of cociddia and in shows in such a manner. Many treatments available. We use a sulpha drug in the water (sold for chickens, turkeys, swine) as a coccidiastat. The name of it escapes me at the moment.

    $5/Pound?

    For anyone wanting rabbit meat I sell them the live rabbit and offer to process it at no charge. So a 4 pound fryer is sold at $3.50 = $14.00 live. But they pick up a 2.00 pound dressed rabbit carcass ($7.00 per pound) I only sell to a few people.<br /><br />__________ Mon Mar 25, 2013 3:05 pm...

    USDA inspected.

    Thank you for posting USDA Guidelines! IMHO you would have to be nutz to want USDA in your buisness. Selling to pet stores is not worth it. USDA can "fine" you $1,000.00 of dollars per day for not meeting their guidelines.

    Ugh! My doe kindled ONE and has stopped for HOURS now...

    Have you palpated her? Does she have more in her? Did you check on the floor for more in case she had them on the wire and some crawled out? Is she having contractions or is just content?<br /><br />__________ Wed Mar 20, 2013 2:26 pm __________<br /><br />Oops, just reread post that she has...

    When do you wean your kits?

    We wean our meat babies close to six weeks. I always make sure they have hay to nibble on when they get out of the nestbox. They start jumping into the j-feeder or sitting on momma's back to reach it! We feed an 18 % protein pellet. Genetics has a lot to do with your rate of growth. Just...

    How do you explain it?

    I think you did a good job in explaining. When I feel they truely cared and did nothing wrong, I offer them another pet rabbit when they are ready at no charge. I want to make the situation right, so they could not say anything negative about me or my bunnies. Some bunnies just fail to thrive...
