A while back, the only bunny who ever bit me was put on the freezer nap list pending attempted breeding. I spared her because she was once someone's pet, but she opened my finger up almost to the bone. She had later tried to attack me when I cleaned her hutch. A failed breeding and subsequent...

After looking online and seeing crazy expensive rabbit gambrels, I figured I could make one on my own for much cheaper. I saw some chain gambrels for upwards of $45.00. I didn't need a gambrel until now, but I have some older rabbits that are to be processed. I did one last night and decided...

Woo-hoo! :D I didn't think I'd be able to get any, but I've reserved a buck and 2 does, all unrelated Texas A&M New Zealand rabbits! Paperwork included and at only $35.00 each! These are young, at 4 weeks old and I have to wait two more weeks before picking them up, but they'll make a nice...

Microsoft had said that it would stop all support for XP in April 2014, including anti-malware support. Now, they've announced that they'll extend anti-malware support through July of 2015. Now, it's not quite as critical for everyone to upgrade. http://www.techradar.com/us/news/softwa ...

Yep, I'm easily impressed. It was clear and dry when I got to work. This was after only a few hours. We don't get this kind of stuff around here too often. The doors are even frozen shut. So post yours and put mine to shame! :) (Sorry, I had to lower the resolution to let it upload...

I was going to process some fryers this weekend, but hurt my back working on a car Saturday. I couldn't walk unassisted this weekend and can't even pick a rabbit up at this point. The growouts are 11 weeks old and are still with their mom. Will this be a problem? I'd prefer to control...

I have an 11 week old kit from an NZW doe (sired by a Californian buck) that looks about as big as its mom. I haven't spent hardly any time in the rabbitry lately and haven't sexed the kits. I'm hoping it's a doe so I can cross it with my Flemish Giant for meat production and maintain hybrid...

Here's one for you. A friend of ours died recently and left his property to us. It's next to a property that we already own, so we're looking at combining them and building out there. A neighbor from that area called me yesterday morning and said someone was building on the property. We haven't...

One of my first time bunnies kindled yesterday while I was at work. I don't know how long the kits were there, but they were cold, rather stiff and not moving. The doe didn't pull any fur and some of the kits had been stomped. She had 10 kits and 9 were in the nestbox with one on the wire...

Miny, one of the NZW does had 4 healthy little wigglers today. The sire is Clyde, the Cali with the swirly ears. Bunny, a Cali doe that was mated with Clyde the same day, is scratching around, moving hay and pulling fur. Hopefully more on the way. Both are a day late and two other does are...

My DW up and gave me a Kindle Fire HDX yesterday! I had no idea that she was gong to do that. It's my first exposure to the Android OS. This thing can do everything that my Windows tablet and old Kindle 3G could do combined, but faster and prettier. I'm a happy camper! :D

Yesterday, I deboned and fried a 17 1/2 week old rabbit after 3 days rest/brining in the fridge. I used the same spice rub that I use on fryers and fried it with some cubes of steak I cut from some sirloins in regular soybean oil. (Unless deep frying, I usually mix rabbit and beef or venison.)...

I've been getting some requests here and there that I sell some rabbits for meat. I understand that people want the meat, but the laws on selling aren't geared toward the individual. So far, I've just told the folks that I can't sell processed rabbits, but could sell a live one. These aren't...

I'm in the big city of Dallas in a class for a few days. If some of yall are here, maybe we can get together and chat. That is, if we can figure out the timing. The traffic here is phenomenal for those who are used to a normal sized town. Kyle, where I'm from, has about 30k people and I live...

Glow in the dark bunnies. I want some. :) http://news.discovery.com/animals/pets/ ... 130813.htm

Put on your long johns and jackets, folks! It's only 93 degrees outside! Woohoo! :D It's the first day below 100 in living memory as far as I can recall. And it's supposed to be like this all week! :)

I got a free rabbit a short time back and she turned out to be a nice looking NZW. She's been so sweet and a little playful while in quarantine inside the house. I've been replacing her bedding at least once a day. Last night, I was cleaning her cage and she lunged at me. I didn't think...

DW texted me and said we have a new litter of kits! This is a first time NZW doe. The doe had her kits on the wire and evidently freaked out that there were these intruders in her hutch. She killed 3 and was eating them when DW went to check on her. DW saved 4 and put them in the nesting...

Yesterday, I was about to make a run to visit a sick friend when I saw an ad for a rabbit. The ad said she was a female albino and came free with a cage. The rabbit was in the same town as my friend, so I emailed my cell number. The lady texted me and wanted to make sure the rabbit would be...

I was heading home a couple of days ago and thought this was pretty funny. I took a snapshot from my dashcam video. It's a little grainy because I had to zoom in, but the license plate shows up for the most part. :lol:
