currently i have hanging cages in my rabbit barn. it is not a very big barn; i only have space for nineteen 30x30 cages. i thought this would be fine, but i filled this space up within months, and i am finding myself unable to make space for the animals i need to pursue breeding goals, so i'm...

i have a lot of deer fern i'm clearing out on my new property and from what i've read online, it's a food source for deer, elk, etc and i was just wondering if anyone here knew if i could feed these to my rabbits. i'm cutting them out anyway, it would be great if i could use them as food for...

...with fifteen rabbits, two dogs, two cats, six snakes, two humans, and a 26' u-haul at max capacity. four days, two all-nighters, and only two casualties :') let's just say it was an adventure. but now i'm up here in my little mountain house on five acres with a proper bunny barn and more...

there are many things that i stress about when thinking of moving - new doctors, new vets. this time i'm stressed about finding good feed for my rabbits and other animals :x does anyone know any good brands of feed in washington state? i'm having a hard time finding any - i know there's...

not any of mine, unfortunately, but i was watching a video of a woman feeding rabbits on okunoshima (rabbit island) in japan and noticed this one dark rabbit with really odd markings. it looks like when a dog has ticking over large white markings, but i'm pretty sure that sort of thing doesn't...

in preparation for my move, i've been stocking up on transport cages for the buns. i know that you can buy tiny little crock feeders and water bottles for them, i'm assuming i can get them on bunnyrabbit.com and i have a coupon for cyber monday, i'm just not sure what ones are the ones i'm...

one of my champagne/nzr/harlequin mix mutt bucks had mites so i gave him an ivermectin injection about three days ago. he hadn't been eating much the subsequent days, so i was preparing to move him to a hospital cage for closer observation this evening and found him dead in his cage. he was in...

as a few of you know, i do hide tanning, and it's actually becoming a source of income for me, which is nice! i have a little goal to have a 'bunny museum' of sorts, a collection of pelts from as many colour and coat combinations as i can acquire to showcase the huge diversity in rabbit coat...

so we are planning a dramatic cross-country move in the coming months (houston to seattle!) and i'm having trouble finding information about changing my address/state/etc of my ARBA registration. will i need to completely re-register the rabbitry or is there some kind of change of address form...

i know some of you raw feed your dogs on your rabbits, but do any of you sell to raw feeders? since the money for me seems to be in the pelts, i have produced far more meat than my family can eat, and i'm looking for other ways to use it. we do sometimes sell our meat to friends/coworkers but...

i have a gravity-fed auto water system (edstrom parts) for my rabbits and i'm having some issues, and i wanted to ask for advice before i went and bought new parts just in case there's something better out there. really what i'm having problems with is the nipples leaking. im not even sure why...

not sure how many of you guys are near me, but worth a try :) i have a meat mutt buck i would really like to go to a breeder home instead of to freezer camp. he was born on february 8th and is just about breeding age, though i haven't tried him yet. he's very sweet and laid back. he is 1/4...

i figured it might be easier to make a new thread in case my question got buried etc. a few posts down i wrote about how what i thought was e. cuniculi wiped out 16 of my growouts last week. i immediately began treating them with fenbendazole and continued treatment for the recommended 6 days...

this morning i had to put down a growout. this kit had been doing fine yesterday and last night, and this morning we go out and it's thrashing around on its site/back in its cage. the symptoms were similar to a kit i had to euthanize last year, so i was wondering if anyone knew what was going...

i keep my growout rabbits in a colony pen behind my house. it is generally well-shaded but there is a tarp over one half of the pen to allow them some constant shade. the problem is that our "winter" here in texas is just a rainy season. every time it rains the ground gets incredibly muddy...

well, it's not quite that simple. one of my proven rex does had a litter of 9 (one DOA) a week ago and has since lost two more kits, seemingly for no reason. the first one died within a couple days of delivery, so i assumed it was a failure to thrive. but i had a kit die last night too at a...

i'm having a hard time finding clarification or really...anything on texas' laws regarding the sale of rabbit meat. i would like to sell my rabbits, mostly to friends and family, but i know it varies state to state on how you can do that. i know that i can sell them live and butcher them as a...

kind of a terrible thread title but i dont know what else to call it lol. a couple days ago i had a litter out of my REW standard rex doe. the father is a blue magpie harlequin rabbit that i was 100% convinced was sterile after several failed breedings, so he was sent to the stew pot...

and would it affect the size of its kits? i've had a big learning curve with my rabbits since getting them last spring and while i've learned a lot, it feels like i keep having problems. if nothing else i guess i at least know what to do when everything goes wrong, lol. my latest problem...

i have this handsome little castor rex buck, but it seems like he's gotten as dark as he ever will, and i'm wondering if he'd really be worth showing? he is much much lighter than the castors i see online. i was hoping to show him and my rew doe at a couple shows but if he's not gonna do well...
