Last week one of my Holland Lop does started getting urine scald, she had been losing weight lately (which I attributed to leaving one of her babies in her as a cagemate and separated them) She ended up getting flystrike, which I feel awful about but I hadn't been checking her as diligently as I...

I had something strange happen. I bought a rabbit from a breeder in another state, a four month old Holland Lop doe. She was delivered from the show and the transporter made a comment on how scrawny she was, much smaller than I would think for her age. She had a irritated eye on one side but...

Recently I've been getting a lot of questions, about rabbit raising and pet care. I was thinking of putting together some simple youtube videos. Like "how to trim nails", "basics of breeding and palpating", "how to evaluate a healthy rabbit" Anything you would like to see done?

I wasn't quite sure where to post this but wanted to share in case it could help someone else. I bought a very nice Holland Lop buck this summer, I had met him in the spring and really liked him but wasn't able to afford him so I was thrilled when he came back up for sale. He was several states...

Anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this? I'm stumped. I have a year old Holland Lop doe, she had a successful litter for the previous owner. I bred her when I first got her, she took to the first breeding but stopped eating halfway through the pregnancy, got quite thin and had the...

One of my jr Silver Fox does had a litter of 9 on the 8th, made a nice nest and pulled fur, no issues there. But she isn't feeding them, she looks like has plenty of milk, her nipples look red on the tips but no signs of mastitis yet. We've been holding her down so the hungry kits can nurse but...

So this HL buck I got a bit over two months ago is getting really thin, he dropped some weight in quarantine which I attributed to stress of moving and whatnot. I was checking the herd last night after a trip and he is scary thin, like feel every bone skinny. But no pot belly and has a great...

Help colour experts! I recently bought a nice Holland Lop buck, he is a broken tort and likely a Charlie but since I wanted him primarly for breeding I didn't mind. Recently I was working on posing him and noticed his eyes looked different from all my other rabbits. I contacted the breeder and...

Wasn't quite sure where to put this topic. I was working on posing one of my new Holland bucks recently and noticed how weird his eyes look. Any ideas on what is up with his eyes? They look the same on both sides and I haven't been able to dig up anything information about it. None of my other...

So my good, experienced SF doe had some issues with her last litter and I lost 4 :( the remaining kits are doing fine and I weighed them tonight as I was doing chores, one is 7.9 oz and the other is 10.9! he is just enormous. I've never had such a big kit, should I worry?

Any thoughts? So I know Hollands are a super competitive breed, but I've got some babies that are looking nice and I'm excited to see them grow up. Tort buck, 8 weeks old, His ears are a little long but I like his head and size, plus he is the sweetest fellow Tort buck, 5 weeks old, just a...

I tried breeding my favorite SF doe to my big buck today, again.... She looked very ready to breed but was not at all into it, just tucked into the corner making squeaky grunts and refusing to lift. The weird thing is she always breeds readily with my other buck and this big guy has bred...

I have been reading a lot recently on Weaning Enteritis and Mucoid Enteritis, it seems fairly widespread for breeders to have issues at weaning, death, faders or poor growth. I think good management and only breeding healthy animals can help but sometimes despite your best efforts you lose some...

But I'm kind of a fan Looking nice for 10 weeks! Fastest growing out of the litter too, uh-oh looks like I'm keeping two!

FOR SALE: Mid Michigan Two ruby eyed white Angora bucks, two years old, French type wool, they are 3/4 French 1/4 English. Both nice woolers. $15. each, may also have some does available.

Sorry the pictures aren't the greatest and she's blowing her coat but can anyone help me on what colour this Angora is? She is mostly french and out of a REW doe and grey buck.

Went with my husband to his friend's house today to pick up some chickens, because friend has to move suddenly and we needed some more laying birds. We also came home with 8 bunnies! I had sold him a breeding pair of Angoras a year ago and he decided he couldn't keep them so gave me the...

My husband doesn't get why I'm so excited by this so I have to share it where people will "get" it. I went out last night to check my new Silver Fox doe who was due yesterday, she hadn't pulled fur or mad a nest but I palpated her and was sure she was preggo. It was her first litter and she is...

I have been having the hardest time getting my Hollands to breed. My Silver Fox are doing great so I don't think this is a management issue but all suggestions welcome! Females live in a colony together, boys are in cages in a different barn. They are all healthy and happy. I check vents and...
