Well, this is a first for me so I am not sure what to do. Rory here has a large abscess on the side of her face. I looked at her teeth and they seem fine, she is still eating and drinking normally and running around, even chasing the chickens, as she usually does. It feels like a large golf...

Very nice! Amazing price too! Good catch!

Yes, probably REW carriers. Don't be surprised if you also end up with seals. Sable point x sable point = seal if the kit gets both sable point genes. That threw me for a loop once.

Anytime! Feel free to ask anything else! We all have aspects of this hobby that we are learning.

No requirement for show carriers. You will take your rabbit and place it on the show table in a separate cage/compartment when your breed comes up. Several locals sometimes show up to shows with the rabbits in their arms. I would definitely not recommend that though!

Thank you! Yes, I have other rabbits that I also transported with the infected one in my car. They are in quarantine and not exhibiting signs but obviously that doesn't mean much.

He was taken care of but not before another ND came down with it. Different breeder but obviously rode in my car together and were in the quarantine area together until the other one got symptoms. So now first of, what do I do about my carriers? What is the best way to ensure they I don't...

I had a rabbit transported across the country and picked up at a show. It did not seem to have any signs of illness when I picked it up and the breeder and transporter say they did not see anything. The morning after I got him home, one nostril has a white discharge. He is in quarantine...

I just wanted to follow up - I am now the happy owner of a few NDs and couldn't be happier with them! For that reputation, they certainly are less sassy than some of my other breeds. Very sweet, both the bucks and does, and they are from a few different breeders so it isn't just line...

Great to know it is a rufus modifier. Definitely helps me with figuring out what to work on in the color. Thank you tons!

Yes it is a blue tort. Doing research it looks like the c locus may be causing the white undercoat (source: http://www.lalions.us/Tort.html). Here is another one that looks different than the first blue one. http://www.mossyranch.com/lionhead-colors.html under 'Blue Tort.' This one looks...

I have seen a few different variations of blue tort and I am trying to figure out what makes the genetic difference. Can someone help explain? These are the blue torts I normally get. However, a judge has remarked that they are too mealy. These is the other kind of blue tort I have seen...

Thank you! I cleaned out the nest box, saved as much fur as I could and have them inside for the night. I'm hoping she feeds them in the morning as I am going out of town tomorrow night. Keeping my fingers crossed that it was a one time thing.

I had to move my doe with kits into a different cage (found a hole in hers that made me uneasy) yesterday. They are almost a week old, she had been feeding them fine, not a first time mom, has always been a good mom, 5 kits so not too much to handle. I checked the box this afternoon and...

Perfect, thank you!!

Great, thank you for explaining that. So to get seal I should breed two sables together or a seal with a sable, correct? Thank you!

The Ch gene still messes me up. What are my chances of getting seal of the dam is seal and the sire is pointed white with siamese sable x pointed white in the background?

I had not even considered that part about the poop! I feel like I am going to keep moving a lot of bunnies around. Thank you!

The scanning is quite common with certain lines of rabbits and even more common with red eyed white rabbits. It does not seem to affect them at all, just something to do with depth perception.

Cute black tort and seems to like to pose. Would you take a photo of the side and of his feet. I usually can get over the cuteness if I figure out if the hindquarters are pinched. If they're not and he's smooth then I don't see why you wouldn't keep him. This is obviously if you are showing...
