Sorry, I'm one of those that doesn't really measure when cooking :oops: so this is a loose recipe with approximate measurements. Veggies can be easily substituted to suit personal taste, great to make in the summer with fresh veggies. 1 rabbit, cooked and shredded (cook overnight in the...

I wasn't sure if this would fit best here or under behavior issues...let me know if I should move it! Sorry, it's a little long... I kept 2 does from a litter last year from a good doe that usually has good younguns. One is fine, the other has given me some trouble. She's always been pretty...

When I let the dogs out after supper they promptly informed me that there was an intruder in the back yard...box turtle! She was holding her hind leg kind of funny, so I picked her up just to make sure she wasn't injured. I felt terrible when I saw that she had dug a nest, and sat her right...

I moved into a property that has a portion of land taken over by joe Pye weed. I was planning on wiping it all out to make more space for a garden, but when I looked it up I got a lot of info about it having medicinal properties for people. I've not found it on a list for rabbits, but have...

I picked up a champagne d'argent buck in hopes of getting a doe from the same breeder shortly after. He ran into issues with a litter he was expecting, and I still have no doe. So, after feeding this buck for so long I decided it was time to breed him even if it was only for meat mutts...

Yesterday I took on 2 wild kits that a client brought to the clinic. Her cat had brought them to her house, and she wasn't able to find the nest they came from. I've been syringe feeding and they seem to be doing pretty well...I think they're probably 5-6 days old. I have a doe due in a day...

I have a doe due on 12/22, so I was planning on putting in her nest box on 12/20. Tonight (12/18) when I filled her hay rack I noticed she pulled out a large mouth-full of hay and started exploring the corners of her cage, as if she was looking to make a nest. I've always been told not to put...

I've only made a few posts, but I've read a lot of other people's posts and the info on this site is so great! With kits from a first time mom, I especially appreciated the pictures on how to tell whether or not the kits are being well fed. On 9/25 one of my does kindled, a first for both me...

I got three rabbits to use for breeding stock...2 does that are NZ/Californian, and 1 NZ buck, all about 4.5 months. When I met the guy to pick them up, they were very nervous, but I figured it was because they had just been put in a carrier and taken for a car ride to a strange place. Nope...

Okay, so I'm working on finishing up my 5-stall hutch and am starting to look for the rabbits I want to buy for my breeding stock. I have found a source for a good NZ buck, but he wants more than I'm willing to pay for his Silver Fox does. There is a local FFA/4H girl who is trying to sell...

I'm about to venture into breeding and raising rabbits for meat, mainly for my dogs. My dogs are fed a well balanced raw diet, and I'm hoping that raising my own rabbits will help me provide for them at a lower cost. I can tell you everything you need to know about raising your dog on the best...
