I get pumpkin seeds that is roasted and salted... these little buggers still don't like it.. I have to dehull it one by one so they will nibble on it. I'm thinking of making a bunny biscuit maybe they will eat that.

wow, didn't know that ginger root is good for them... thanks for the info... do you just feed it to them straight? I might just have problems making my buck to eat it since he's picky

yes never give up! I haven't been successful in reviving kits but I never stop trying... Great job!

My sister's dachshund ears was like that before, we didn't have enough money for the vet back then and she was so worried that it might make matters worst if we waited. It was filled with fluids. I sterilized the syringe first and doze the area with alcohol. We also use ice to numb the area a...

Same with my buck, he's the one who always have a tummy problem. Just this morning I noticed that his poop is stringing together. I also feed him fresh papaya everyday. he's only getting oats groats now with unlimited hay and greens. No BOSS or pellets for him. But I always touch him to check...

Maybe this can help. fertlility-flushing-t11570.html?uid=1791 You said that females live on colony together, might be they are humping each other which could be a reason for pseudo-pregnancy? I also suggest putting the doe next to the buck for a few days that might help her be familiar with...

I add calf manna to their 1/2 cup pellet ration per day, just 1 table spoon for dry does and 2 for momma buns. BOSS = a handful of boss every other day (maybe around 40 grams) Oats groats = a handful as well added to their pellet ration. My buck gets 1/2 cup since i don't give him pellets...

Thanks, I'm still new to this and I learn a lot here... love this site :)

So today my two does gave birth... the first one who was nesting 2 weeks early has an explosion of fur in her nest box. She gave first to 5 kits, no still birth. I was patting her a lot and telling her what a good girl she is especially since she give birth on her nest box. The second one, no...

Wow! Congratulations! Nice idea about the article, I'm going to get my dad read your post since he's battling with bad cholesterol too... and he's always telling me chicken is much better than rabbits, he means chicken in the grocery. This will be a good way to convince him to eat healthy.

Hi has anyone tried feeding your buns cassava leaves? according to feedipedia... "fresh leaves has high protein content (as high as an excellent alfalfa) with a good amino acid profile except for methionine. They are good sources of minerals (Ca and trace elements) although P and Na contents...

I put nesting box when my does starts to practically scratch the wires on their cage sort of like they are trying to dig out. The box seems to calm them because they will stop clawing there like crazy. I have a doe now is already doing this 2 weeks before she's due. I guess you just have to...

Thanks for this, I'm really trying to get my hands on as much rabbit books that I can find. Trying to learn all I can. I tried palpating her again. she feels rounded on her belly and I think I felt "grape" like embryo's in there. Hopefully, its really embryo and I'll have bunnies soon. She's a...

I notice one of my doe making a haystache at 18 days after mating. I already gave her a nest box. When I brought her to my buck before, she was mated several times within the day. Successful matings, the buck always fell over (always makes me laugh, don't know why :D ). Now, I'm thinking...

One of my bunnies are like this too. What can be the treatment for this?

Yeah I believe that, too. They should eat what i gave them. I don't have problems with giving pellets just that I want them to eat foods that I know will be good for them. I want the pellets as an addition to their foods and not as their main food source. There's an abundance of green foods...

Great, i'll try that since my doe just have her kits and i also want to get rid of those pesky mosquitoes.

I got some grass clippings for him. There's a lot of grass fields near us that grows so high. I figured to get the ones that sprouting some grain tops (I really don't know what its called) i collected the grain tops for him and he eats it like crazy. I also gave him some tarragon clippings and...
