    Snuffles?

    She didn't sneeze today and it's been raining. I checked all of my herd and none of them including her had any matting. Maybe it's just allergies after all. I took her out and gave her a real good lookover with a flashlight and saw nothing. I'm going to keep checking. (didn't touch any of the...

    Snuffles?

    No I haven't given them hay in a couple of weeks. That my bad. I just picked some up. Someone kept buying it all. I've been giving them the new Southern States food. It's 18% Protein and no corn. It looks better than most of the stuff out there. Most of the breeders I know switch them to this a...

    Snuffles?

    Sorry if this isn't the right place to put this. I have a Doe (3 months old)and she has sneezing fits in the morning when I feed them. Her Mom is in the next hole and doesn't sneeze. There apart as of now. I have been watching for discharge from the eyes, ears and nose and have seen nothing...

    Tatoo ink

    I'm pretty sure I did it right. I could see the holes in their ears. The ones that took are light and the others didn't. And I really rubbed the ink in.

    Tatoo ink

    Hi, What's the better inks to use for tatooing? I inked some of my heard and the ones that took was light. The rest was nothing. I don't want to go through this multiple times. I placed this here because I look at it as a stress issue for them. Thanks

    Newbie question about NZs

    I have NZ Reds and they are very gentle and I've also read that the does make better moms than most. Size wise, they were as big as the whites from the breeders that I've been too. My California's are jumpy and skittish compared to the others. My Champagne D'Argents are kickers and their the...

    One of my Rabbits is in trouble

    I just found out that he has ear mites. :x My question is can this cause him to lose the weight?

    One of my Rabbits is in trouble

    He's about 7 months old. My bad when I wrote that I fed them hay. I put it in for bedding during the cold weather we had here in central NC and they eat it. I do give them Timothy to eat. I've doubled up on his food and he's eating it. I'll see if he improves soon. How long should it take to...

    One of my Rabbits is in trouble

    I recently cut down on their pellets because they were putting on too much weight. A week ago I increased it. I give them more than the breeders did and they were all doing well. They all, including him sit at the food bowl and eat right up with no exceptions. I am going to give him a week or...

    One of my Rabbits is in trouble

    I was trying to breed my rabbits today as more of them have made it to that age. One of my NZ Red Bucks was thin as heck, almost a skeleton. They all have been eating, 5 oz of pellets in the morning, Straw or Timothy hay at night. None of them have the runs. I'm kind of lost on this one. The...

    Breeding Questions

    Last month I tried mating my champagne D'Argent rabbits. (I'm new at this.) 1.) A month ago, I put the Doe in the Bucks cage and not much happened. The next day I tried again. It started off the same way, a little chasing and licking followed by nothing. Then a huge chase with some fur flying...

    New to this with questions

    I'm planning to get New Zealand's. I was planning to have no sides or back until the late fall. Yesterday, I noticed that the sun will hit one side for an hour or two so I am going to put up at least one side for now. I almost finished the roof today after work and after the wife had me do some...

    New to this with questions

    I thought that heat rises? I'll listen to the experts. Let me ask this as far as the roof goes. What if I use a sheet of wood with a sheet of tar paper, on top of that a sheet of foam insulation with the metal roof on top of that? I already have all of these materials, that's why I'm putting...

    New to this with questions

    I'm in the middle of building my hutch. They are all wire, 3X6 (3X3 with divider)and I made two of them. I'm in NC so it's hot down here. It's going in back of the house facing south so it will be in the shade. It's going to have a metal roof and both cages will be suspended from wooden posts...
