Hello I don't often ask questions on here But lately I've been having real bad time getting litters. I've only gotten one living litter all year; and of its 3 kits, 1 looks like its fading. The mother HATES feeding them. I have to hold her down to let them nurse (I think she's only nursed...

Finally, after a year and a half of not getting any live babies, and trying nearly everything in the book to increase fertility, I got some babies. Switching feed again seems to be what did it; I switched from purina show, to 50% purina show and 50% purina complete, then finally to purina...

I've been very busy lately... So of course, to hide from all my responsibilities, I've been drawing rabbits. Here is a polish I drew;

I'm trying to collect data from anybody who has had a snowball rabbit. This is a kit that with a bright white under (in a color not meant to have a bright white undercolor). Usually this molts out, and usually the rabbit in question is a dilute (dd) based. For anybody that has had snowballs, can...

He was cheap & I was weak lol. Lilac Himalayan buck. Just posting because it is absolutely adorable, the color is so cute as this age. Naming him "No Regrets". Look at the beautiful eyes!

I have decided to start a blog about one of my favorite subjects: rabbit history. I just wrote the first real article, about rabbit courts (one of the first ways to house rabbits), and it can be found here: http://rabbithistory.weebly.com/home/rabbit-courts-early-housing Thoughts? What other...

Out of curiosity, is anybody on this forum an ARBA judge?

Along with my love of rabbits, I also love writing stories (fantasy mostly, for me). Does anybody here write stories? If so, I'd love to read them, and hear any advice you might have to me or your fellow authors.

Looking through my rabbits, and this one I think one is my most promising young rabbit... She'll fill out in the midsection some. Just sent in the grand champion paperwork for her mom, and then her whole pedigree will be grand champions. Her half sister just won BOB at ARBA, her mother won BOB...

Just want to show off my rabbit <3 I'm super excited to show him, I think I'll be able to be in late November or early December. Not worth taking to nationals as the variety isn't recognized yet, but he is super adorable. I just got into champagne netherland dwarfs with a pair from convention...

Have a couple questions about these breeds. 1. I've heard its illegal to raise San Juan rabbits in KY and PA. Is that true, and are there other states where you cant raise them? 2. Are there any laws regulating Tennessee Redback rabbits? 3. What are the differences between these breeds? Only...

Anybody else here raise show pigeons? I have booted ice pigeons and parlour tumblers. Here's some pictures of them: (The parlours climb up the wall to reach the perch because they're naturally flightless) (Here's one of the ice pigeons sitting on my hand to show off his foot feathers, which...

Just out of curiosity, what are your opinions of this black Himalayan sr doe?

Which one looks best? Same rabbit, just posed/photographed differently. Born early February. Only asking because I haven't photographed commercial rabbits before, and I was practicing... I was thinking A was the best, but I wanted to be sure I had picture taking down before I went and did the...
