Basically my question is Sub-Q or IM? My problem doe has a nasty case of sore hocks and just kindled seven DOA and under-formed (but deliver on due date) kits. A very experienced rabbit person, actually who I bought the daddy of the litter from, suggested I give her some penicillin to help fight...

My buck is a MESS! He now has fleas, although I cant fully blame him for this one all of our barn cats have had fleas bad lately so they are spreading. I have been looking up ways to rid of these pests and one site said flea powder, another said NO flea powder because it contains too many...

My Harley buck has been sick lately. Long list of issues with this boy internal parasites (I think), ear mites, sore hocks and now that he's finally starting to start acting better and eating good again....I notice some of his poo is stuck to the wire and its dark and looks kind of like raisins...

I am building a new rabbit hutch this weekend. It is going to be very large and I don't know what to use as a frame to hold it up. It will be a long, outside, full-wire (4 or 5 hole) cage. My plans are 12ft long, 18 inches tall and 2ft wide then I want the frame to hold it up about 37 inches off...

My Jap Harli doe had four popples on New Year's Day. From the begging the one was always smaller than the others, I figured he was just the runt and since when I felt their bellies they all felt like they had been fed so I didn't really worry about him. Although when I looked at him closely...

My rabbits waste SO much hay! :evil: :x I cant tel how much they eating and how much they are throwing under the cage and on the floor! :( Is there an effective way somebody out there has for making their buns waste less hay? Like a special feeder? I feed them timothy hay so shouldn't that...

I would like to know if I can feed my rabbits just Oats and BOSS? Or can I give it to them as a supplement and give them less pelleted food? They will always have a free choice timothy (or occasionally T&A) hay to nibble. If I can do this I would be growing it all myself. Does anyone know if I...

I've been thinking of registering my buck to the ARBA, but I'm not sure if I should? He has a pedigree and I (don't think) any DQ's so he should be able to be registered. I just don;t know if its worth it. First of all, what are the benefit? Can a registered rabbit (or kit with registered...

Hi, I've been wanting to increase the size and productivity of my rabbitry (Currently have a harley buck, harley doe and her kit and a random LionHead doe that I am selling soon) but, I don't really know what to do. I am planing on getting another buck and a doe to start. (Because the buck I...

I looked on the ABRA website and the only shows I saw, that were a reasonable travel distance for me, were for the very next day. I was wondering if anybody knew of any smaller, maybe, shows coming up in central Florida, or Florida in general. I know I will be going to the FL State Fair with my...

My Lionhead's belly area seems bigger than usual. It feels literally like it's swollen or something. I thought it was just her milk glands filling up (I believe she had a false pregnancy (She did pull fur for a nest but there was no way, that I could think of, she could have gotten...

I am new to the rabbit world and want to get into the show business. But, I have NO IDEA how to judge/evaluate them. I have Lionheads and Harlequins (Japs and Mags). Could anyone help me and give me ideas on how to see how show quality my rabbits are. I can post pictures if need be. :bunnyhop...

I am really worried about my baby Harley. He was born on November 1 by himself (I think because my buck is sterile from the hot summer) and is pretty big. But last night (11/8) I picked him up to fix his nest because it was going to be a chilly night and he fell out of the cage. He seemed like...
