I know that with all animals when they start to get older they often loose condition and it shows, no matter how much they eat or lounge around. I just find myself wondering when is the right time with our older buns to let them cross naturally or if we should help them. I ask and wonder this as...

Hello all, been a while since I was here last. For the last 3 years I have been breeding Flemish Giants exclusively as a meat source. I know it takes longer for them to reach a good butcher weight but I also use the hides as well so don't mind waiting longer. I started with a Fawn buck and doe...

Hello everyone. I know it has been a minute since I was last here and made an actual post, life has been busy! However, I have been working with Flemish Giant. I actually breed for meat and fur as I like to make gifts for family with the furs. I started out with a couple Fawn Flemish Giants, and...

Hello RT family. The last couple months have been eventful. Moving to a new city, finding a new job, and of course finding a new place to call home. We moved from Reno down to Las Vegas so that I can finish my Vet Tech classes. I start next monday!!!! Yes I am supper excited about it too, if...

Hello all. I know it has been a heck of a while since I was last on but I have some questions for those who live in high temp areas. DH and I are moving down to Las Vegas Nevada at the end of the month. I am getting back into school to finish my tech program and we are buying our first place...

Hello RT. It has definitely taken me awhile to write this to you all. I know I should have come to my Rabbit Tribe before things got so far but Sage is going into surgery today. Let me try to start from the beginning... Sunday afternoon Sage was not quite acting himself, wanting to be in his...

Title says a lot..... Basicly I went fishing yesterday and didn't have strong enough sunblock. I am now a "Roasty Toasty Princess" so to speak and I am looking for alternatives to help cool the burns down. I have tried ACV, Aloe Vera Gel and plant, and a cool shower. No relief so far, but also...

Hello all. I have an 8 day old kit that just opened its little eyes today. However when I was taking pictures I noticed weird colouring on his ears. He looked to be a Blue mini Rex when he was born and up until yesterday when I took them out to check them over. So I guess the question would be...

Well you all know how I had been looking for a new house bunny since Jack had passed. Then I of course had Tiny born on Easter Sunday. I rehomed all the rest of my Himalayans due to not wanting that many rabbits in my apartment. They all went to the same home where the 4 kids (ages 10-17) all...

Let me just say that I am not sure if this post should be under Hopping Mad rather than here. If it needs to be moved, please do. Anyway, I was rear-ended on Monday 5/15/17 while taking DH to work. I had been slowing down due to stopped traffic in-front of me at my exit. I had gone to this exit...

Well DH and I have finally settled on which baby we will be keeping from Blue's litter. Tiny (so named because he is the smallest kit) is the most personable and actually seeks out our attention. He is also not afraid of Sage in the least, though he is smaller than Sage's paw.... When he is old...

Hello all. Like the title states, I have a solid black bun that has come out of mainly brokens in the pedigree. I purchased him while I was at the West Coast Classic over this last weekend. His genotype that I have from the pedigree is as fallows: aab?d?en? His Dam was a Tri (aaB-C-D-ej-W-Enen)...

Blue had her litter last night/ this morning. It was at Midnight lol. So I have easter popples! 7 little pink wrigglers.

Well I have done my first official tattoo. I gave it to myself since I have wanted one for the last 19 years. However I had to draw it on my leg myself, freehand. So of course it came out a little different. So of course it didn't come out the best in the pic with the plastic on it. I'll get...

Okay guys. I have had TJ for a week and am getting to know him better. I do handle him daily, brushing fur and basic hygiene of the bun and cage. However whenever I go to pet him around his ears or shoulders he starts to breath heavily and tenses like no other. He also gives a small "scream"...

Well for those of you who have been following my thread about searching for a house bunny. Well I guess you could say I got a lucky find. I started looking online trying to find any Himalayan rabbit breeders anywhere close to me. Oh boy did I get lucky! I found the only breeder registered with...

Hello all. Well I am back to searching for a house bunny. So far I have not found what I am looking for from those that do breed rabbits here. For example I am wanting a rabbit that has been handles since close to birth, wont freak out if my dog comes to say hello, and who would allow me to...

Hello all. It was great to read the Happy B-day wishes! I have finally had a chance to get on RT and see everyone again. I have missed you all so much, not to mention all the great advice you guys give! Anyway, though it is a short visit this time, I wanted to let you all know that Sagebrush...

Hello all you Rabbit Talk friends and family. Boy how I have missed seeing you all. Well it is a sad day that I bring this all to you now. As of July 1st I have had no bunnies in my life. Do to some unforeseen events occurring I have had to give up all my rabbits and the rabbitry. Though I still...

I am not sure how many of you all remember Murphy. She was one of the very first kits I had born down here in San Diego. She is a Standard Rex and Dutch cross. She is definitely a solid meat brick at 5 months old. Even though she is just a tad smaller than Misia (Dutch Palomino cross) she is...
