    Breeding siblings

    I am not interested in breeding litter mates, but was wondering about breeding pairs that share one or both of the same parents. Any thoughts? By the way, I am only breeding for meat, but have also been having fun getting different colors and patterns with the different crosses. This came up as...

    This has probably been asked and answered already...

    Where do I go from here?

    Missouri Cottontails

    Popcicles anyone?

    I bred five of my does a month ago and they are due to deliver yesterday, today, and tomorrow. I filled the nest boxes with hay and placed them in the cages on Tuesday. This morning when I went out to feed them before work, I see that one doe has kindled. She is the Red NZ/Californian cross...

    How long does fresh meat keep?

    This was posted on another forum that I am on and I couldn't answer the question, so I thought that I would ask over here. Any thoughts?
