This is an old post but maybe harliquin mixes.

Does anyone know if there are such things as dwarf willows or willow bushes? They seem very popular with the natural feeders but I don't have the space for a massive willow tree. We live in town and have low powerlines in the potential garden area.

Do you find roses hard to grow? I've never tried them but I've heard they can be difficult? I'd love to have some though. Vining roses would be a dream

Hey all, I'm currently planning a garden based on the food forest method. I'm looking for suggestions for rabbit safe, and perennial: Trees, bushes, and other plants. Preferably dwarf trees as I need them shorter. Comfrey, and a mulberry tree are already on my list as well as dwarf apple trees...

Small update, the pigs are now in a larger cage and have been moved outside to the rabbit garage. I had noticed that they seemed to be "fighting" (Rumbling/chasing) a bit in the small one and incuded two hides so they could have a bit more space away from each other. They seem to get along...

I do know about the pelvis issue, if I can get some younger sows by the time I have a boar than I'll avoid breeding this pair. They really are lovely little animals! However the kinds of "live stock" I can have in town are limited, which is why I turned to these guys.

This is the offical start of my meat guinea pig project! Aka, a city girls attempt at urban farming lmao Today I recived my first pair of sows, an American and an Abyssinian. The white is named Piglet and the brown is Bully (as she's apparently a bit rude). These are the names from the previous...

When I get my pig project started should I start a new thread or continue on this one?

I can't find an exact awnser but can I feed the pigs like my rabbits? I know they need vitamin c but if thats provided via water do they need fresh greens during the winter? I'm not sure if they would use a mineral block. For my rabbits they get hay (though apparently guinea pigs need grass hay...

Your posts are very helpful! I'll definelty be building a tractor. I have some extra wire laying around that I could use for that. I have not had guinea pig as there isn't really anywhere to get it around me, but I've heard it compared to rabbit and duck which I do like. Even if I don't like the...

While I'm thinking about it, do you think $150 is reasonable for an EA buck? His pedigree is included. I'm not sure if I should try a different breeder or if I just have unrealistic price expectations from my cheap meat mutts lmao

That's super helpful! Thank you! I was slightly dreading the cost of equipment to start but a slicker brush and drop spindle are very doable.

As far as I know she dosent spin their fiber. She does mostly mini lops, which was how I found her. I could ask her to be sure though!

I may be acquiring a harliquin english angora soon and while I have meat rabbits, fiber ones are very different. I'd like to sell most of the fiber, but I'd like to use it for myself eventually too. I know I need a carder and a spinning wheel? I'm pretty familer with the actual care and grooming...

When can babies start eating greens? I didn't realize mine were leaving the nest yet and caught them sneaking some of the does dandelion greens. Currently a bit over 2 weeks old

My does nest was mostly fine shavings as she'd pushed all her bedding over the nest. Shavings are a bit messy but seem to work fine for mine.

Have you tried Etsy?

So I can't figure out how to upload an image for some reason. I'll post pics through a hosting site. She seems to be feeding them, they all had full tummies this morning. They're starting to grow fur and have almost doubled in size already! The mom seems to be keeping her weight okay with what...

So my doe had her litter today! I didn't have time to count this morning but it looks like 6-8 healthy brokens! A bit small maybe as it's her first litter but she made a great nest. She literally pushed all of her bedding, and hay to the cornor and stuffed the box full and covered the entrence...
