    My colony, triumphs and troubles

    Well, since I raised the feeders there's no issues. They're still smaller than I think they should be, but they're free fed. Some of them look perfect now. They're 6 weeks old as of yesterday. Its so fun to go out to the shed and play with the babies. YAY babies! lol. They grow in such...

    neighborhood kids

    So I never did reply. Later that day, right after posting that, I went and got a lock for the cage. Plus the neighbor kid got in a lot more trouble. I went and 'told on him' to grandma, cause he was climbing the other neighbor's ladder, up onto the roof of their garage. He moved back with...

    neighborhood kids

    Its summer, and a neighborhood kid has come a-wandering... And let out 2 of my silver-spotted mutts! :evil: Luckily they've been tamed enough that it didn't take much to catch them.... But the latch for my cage door is missing now, and I'm constantly checking on the cage. GRR! I'm pissed...

    BBQ rabbit n sausage gravy

    I had a bunch of BBQ rabbit and sausage links leftover, so decided to make a gravy. So! One leftover rabbit, grilled and a half dozen leftover sausage links, chunked up. Deboned the rabbit and put all the meat in a pan. Add a cup or so of water. Simmer until hot. Add some garlic salt and pepper...

    My website is up!!

    Here's a bit: first page, 'all of our' is mispelt 'all of or' Rabbit's should be rabbits (the 's means rabbit is, no apostrophe means multiple) This paragraph is bugging me: We are set up in North Eastern Tennessee, near the University of Tenessee at Martin. We are set up with a small group...

    How do you mark your babies?

    We may or may not have stolen some markers from the hospital that they use for surgery. Lasts a few weeks, non toxic, and really easy to just grab a few...

    Pregnant doe, day 32, no nesting at all!

    Is she for sure pregnant? My does become rather rotound when they are and by day 28+ they're obviously ready to blow... but they have 8+ babies each time.

    Watering

    I use a big 3 gallon chicken waterer in summer, and a couple of crocks with hot water 2x a day in winter. But we hit -40 in January/February pretty reliably.

    Done with fleas!

    Used to have an issue with fleas with the cats and dog. My solution? Ripped all the carpet out of the house except for my son's bedroom. No more fleas!

    Birds? Scratch that... Pigeons?!

    Exactly. You're one of the most lol! To me it sounded like Star Wars meets the minions in a duel of who's more annoying. The pew-pew squawk half talking ick sounds... <br /><br /> __________ Mon Aug 14, 2017 10:17 pm __________ <br /><br /> https://youtu.be/233e_9DQe5M Thats my blue and gold...

    Doxycycline dosage for small rabbits

    Sorry noone's answered you. The best person to consult for this would be a vet.

    Birds? Scratch that... Pigeons?!

    I've had parrots. From parrotlets to a 35 year old blue and gold. I finally found a great home for my last bird. They are a LOT of work, a LOT of mess, a LOT of sound. The ones with the least sounds are parrotlets and love birds. But if you hate noise, I wouldn't get either of those. Check...

    Aquisition: Rex

    I'm just adding that pee stains on a white bunny aren't necessarily from bad care. My REW looks like that, constantly. Its because she's on a solid floor, and loves to dig in the litter. The litter is brown colored, and she's a stinker! I totally agree with the others on what they say though...

    Best breed for children under 6?

    I have bunnies and kids. The kids learned quickly that rabbits are not to be picked up, only pet. They scratch a LOT just like everyone else has said. IF your kids can understand that sorta, I'd get a big bun. Even a cross bred mutt. The size will be a bit intimidating for the kids to pick...

    Rats!

    I saw pics of the african soft furs, they sure are cute. We're planning on converting a curio cabinet into the rat house, and what we have now (a bin system from Target that we cut the front out of and converted) will be used for the younger feeders. That way it will be easier for my son to...

    Is my surprise doe actually pregnant?

    Is she pooping and peeing as per usual? I know you mentioned her changing the nest box into a litter box, but I figured I had better ask. And how much is she eating? Rabbits don't need to eat that much at all. My biggest eater is a flemish giant, and she only eats, free fed, about a cup of...

    Babies? BABIES! The kits are here! Updates

    Yes, videos are awesome! I've had lots of litters and the closest I've come to seeing birth is watching a momma clean up afterwords (and overclean one baby, she's a brand new momma)

    Rats!

    literally. Since the rabbittalk forum is the most open, awesome board I've ever found I decided to post here in hopes some of our other pet-centric people have pet rats and can help me. Story time! Okay, not so much... My kids have snakes. One of those snakes is a stubborn as heck ball...

    Best breed for a newbie?

    Find a cheap meat mutt and I bet you'll have an all around good rabbit. Us 'meat breeders' tend to cull things that we just don't tolerate behavior wise (mean doe? Keep a kit, cull her, end up with a sweet line instead of killer line) and some people breed spots and colors into the lines. At...
