    Beans, ornamental grasses, and flower heads

    You all are awesome. thanks for the ideas. Its a 4-plant wide, about 40 row-feet, so way too much to feed at once. Ill hang some up in the dehumidifier room where the hay is stored...Ive also got scads of burlap bags from coffee that I got on Craigslist this spring to hang rabbit produce in...

    Beans, ornamental grasses, and flower heads

    Hey folks! Been a busy hot year, and we are just now getting a 2nd breeding in. I have been happily doing a work-share at a local CSA, and the boss is awesome about letting me clear beds of bolted stuff for the bunnies and chickens. I have the chance this week to pull the bean plants- bush...

    Rabbit Meat Nutritional Value

    Hiyas, I dont post a whole lot, but I figured id put in 2c. Id be curious to understand what your sister-in-laws friend said specifically. it just doesnt make a lot of sense. I am a dietitian. Meat is made of protein. Lean meat is an excellent idea for most people in developed countries because...

    meat cross cal x nz X nz question

    Okay, we have our first grow-out does producing. they are Cal x NZW. We bred them back to our NZW buck, and it looks like we have white ears and grey ears. all of the first generation Cal x NZW have the Cal coloring, so Im guessing Cal color is dominant. Does this mean the ones that are...

    Brineing?

    we've found brining is good for stewer rabbits, or the naturally fed turkeys we get from a local family. Makes the meat moist and tender. the differences Ive learned about them is a brine is basically a salt water soak (with flavors if you want) and a marinade is a shorter-term, not total...

    Selling Rabbit Manure

    a sweet local market owner has been giving away burlap coffee bags (I think she receives her ceramic pots wrapped in them) and I got over a car-full. I am thinking of making bunny bean manure tea bags and seeing if they go at market. We have a nice little farmers market and I am doing a...

    back in it again!

    DH says one looked lean. 2 were presumably chilled yesterday, their paws right past their claws looked a bit bloodshot like theyd been trying to crawl and got lost. Today the remaining 3 were all together. I did go out and shovel the pans yesterday afternoon but nobunny got upset. the buck...

    back in it again!

    im just excited that we could actually look at barter or sales this year! We ordered a fall half hog from our foundation doe's breeder, but with rabbits and chickens and quail, we may be filling our own freezer for the most part! Everybunny is still wriggling, eating, and calm so far...

    back in it again!

    Angelas little chilled one didnt make it, but he tried. the finally-named Biscuit kindled 4 in the box last night. Pulled a lot of fur. Her 4 are big and "poppling" like Violets. Still a lot of squirming in Angelas brood but they are quieter. I wonder if its a size/maturity thing, or they just...

    De-Lurking

    Hi JT! Im in Cincy, and had a time finding stock when we started. What city is the big breeder in? We got our original stock from Golden Acres Farm in Blanchester, and when our buck suddenly got sick at 1 year, found a replacement on Craigslist by sheer luck. A friend from IN just gave...
