    Hello bunny!!

    Came home from work yesterday and saw two of my 9 week old Cali's in the front yard. The latch on the cage was open. ???. Anyway when I parked my truck and went over there I saw the rabbit feeding with a young cottontail from the neighborhood. The doe had her litter in the woodline by my house...

    how to choose a buck to keep for breeding

    That's a good question. I'm holding one buck back and I basically kept home due to size, growth and disposition. Not sure what else to look for.

    'Clucking' doe - won't allow buck to mate

    I had the same problem with a young doe that I have. Tried 4 days in a row from the morning to the evening. She would just run around and make a grunting sound. I checked her and she seemed ready. She would actually raise up and lift her tail when I would stroke her back. I read somewhere on...

    Disappearing act.

    I had a predator problem in the past so I moved the does and baby's into the garage until they can go into the grow out cages. I may have something in my garage. It wouldn't be the first time. Will give it a pretty good going over tonight.

    Disappearing act.

    i have a Cali doe that has a litter 1 week old yesterday. When I was cleaning the nest box I only found 10 when there was 11 the day before. I double checked the nest box and the surrounding area around the cage but no baby. I found no blood in the nest box and no sign anywhere. This is the...

    My rant - partner getting a loan for car

    A mans perspective. I have been married over 30 years. Had the same job throughout the marriage. My wife has worked throughout the marriage. I have to admit I have spent money that I shouldn't have for hobbies such as hunting and hunting. Never that amount but into the thousands. One thing I...

    Anyone's litters picture thread!

    These are Cali's that are two weeks old today. Cage will be coming out tonight. Eight are doing great and we have one runt that the wife has adopted. He took a turn for the worse today, he must have hung on to mama after feeding and was out of the nest box this morning. Probably have to make a...

    A fox went out on a chilly night...

    I have a fox problem also. One thing I have noticed is that I caught him by surprise in the back yard and we basically scared the crap out of each other. I used to see him come out of the wood line at least once a week. I have yet to see him since we met.

    Harlequins?

    I saw the pics of yours ZASS and loved them. I have no immediate plans to show rabbits and my rabbitry is based solely on Cali's at this point. With that being said they would purely be pets. I have been checking online the past few days and the closest I can find in my area is about 4 hrs away...

    Harlequins?

    I think they are a beautiful rabbit and would like to possibly have one or two as a pet. Would like to learn about themfrom people that own them. Any suggestions or opinions?

    Californian Doe Second Failure

    I had a similar problem with one of my Cali does and did the changing of housing arrangements. I had the buck close to her cage and had read where that could be a problem. I bred her again and moved the buck away and viola. Really don't know if that was the problem but she had her second litter...

    My best friend...

    Hard to believe I got this guy at 10 weeks old for free. He was being kept in a cage all day, covered in feces and starving for attention.

    Removing kits from mum for the night

    I have been removing the largest two from my litter for the past few nights so one can eat. No problems thus far.

    Trying to keep 3 day old going.

    I, my wife have done the same. Took the 2 fattest in the first few nights to see if the little one would eat and it did. My wife has been supplementing with a ear dropper but no more than half a dropper at a time once or twice a day. It's only a week old so we know it's not a done deal yet. I...

    I'm losing Amos.

    You are correct. It is the seeds. Sorry about that.

    Been asked to kill a pet rabbit...

    I'd have to go with MamaSheepdog. It is something that just has to be done sometimes and I know my neighbor would do it for me as I would for him if neither of us were around. I wouldn't want the little guy to suffer more than it already has. JMO.

    Trying to keep 3 day old going.

    Well had to leave town for work Sunday morning unexpectedly. Gave the wife some last minute instructions and kinda let things go as they may. Returned last night to find the little guy about to burst at the belly but still about a third of the size. Grumpy I agree, this will never be bred. My...
