    Dwarfs that are faders

    For those who raise dwarf rabbits (e.g., Netherland Dwarfs), approximately what percent of offspring end up being faders? Just a rough estimate from your experience would be greatly appreciated. Please, don't include peanuts in the estimate. I'm thinking more of those that suddenly die...

    Its day 33 for my Netherland Dwarf... should I be worried?

    My Netherland Dwarf is on day 33 of pregnancy, and quite plump. She seems to be very pregnant. Not sure if its too late to hope for a healthy litter, but I would like to ensure my doe is safe. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    How common is swelling in genital area for kits?

    Thanks. But they are only 7 weeks old. I don't think they start to mature until after 13 weeks.

    How common is swelling in genital area for kits?

    Its time to sex the 7 week old kits, and I've been taught if you press ever-so-gently just under the genital area, the formation of the sex-based genitals will emerge (taco shape for female, protruding burrito shape for males). This usually works, but once in a while the area looks slightly...

    Rabbit coat color calculator

    Hi , The contact button didn't seem to work on your website. Anyhow, I love the color calculator. I was wondering, if it is not complete, if you would consider adding choices for a Dominant allele, where the other allele is an unknown.. e.g., B_ , C_, etc. I gather this would result in both...

    Only soft poop

    One of our rabbits only has soft poops, like a bunch of grapes (Cecotropes). I know its normal to have a few, but this is ALL the poops, ALL the time. No diarrhea. Any thoughts on an initial rule out? The random, single poops are from a different rabbit. Thanks.

    Making a Broken Pattern

    The brokens won't be for show quality... just and interest in Charlies with very little color. My other lines are for show (BEW, Orange). The chestnut does carry black and blue, but I don't know about self. I've only bred her to a BEW... got a Black VM from that.

    Making a Broken Pattern

    I have a broken black Netherland Dwarf buck, and I'd like to breed him to have more brokens. I don't have a broken doe, and I can't seem to find any quality broken ND does anywhere near me. What other color or variety should I consider to get more brokens? Thanks.
