Hi All! Wasn't sure where to post this. I have a website where I have my rabbits listed. In a previous discussion here on Rabbittalk, some expressed interest in me putting up a page with everyone's websites or contact info & hopefully drive some sales or interest your way.. I am not...

I have some kiln dried oak boards that would be handy to use for the nest boxes I need to build. I've seen that fresh oak is not suitable to feed to rabbits because of the high tannin level. Kiln dried should not have high tannin levels ... ? Any thoughts on this? I could line the corners &...

Years ago, I built a rabbit hutch that had the nest boxes on the exterior, as they do for chickens. I cannot find ANY info/plans on this anywhere. I would like to do this again if I build a new hutch. However, my present nursery cages are humongous dog crates with 2 floors & lots of space...

Again, not sure where to post this. 35 different signs!! It says Easter, but most of them are just Rabbits saying "Hop On In" etc ... They are super cute and FREE. I am not affiliated with this site in any way, but I can't pass up sharing a great rabbit freebie. The files are png/svg etc. You...

Not sure where to post this, but I get free clipart etc and today's mailing was a ton of really cute rabbits! Don't know if anyone can use them for their business cards or craft projects, but they're free and there's a ton of them. They'll be up for 7 days so if this link doesn't work until you...

Producers Pride rabbit chow may be compromised. They were doing it to the chicken feed now they're coming after the rabbits? It's a ways into the vid at 10:50 if you are interested: YouTube

Not sure where to post this, if there's a better place for it let me know and I'll move it. I decided to fool around on the computer tonight and make a logo for my rabbitry, since I finally came up with a name. I was going to draw a rabbit, but then thought it would be 'quicker' to use an actual...

This says it can feed 9 species, including kittens. Has anyone used it for rabbits? I would like to have some milk replacer on hand and I thought this would be a good option. If you want more info - here is the page for it. If you have used it, I would appreciate your review :) Thanks! - Liz

I wasn't sure how to title this post. I had a kit that got his paw tangled up in the hay at about 5 days old. When I found him, his paw was swollen up like a balloon animal. I cut the hay off, and he has survived - he is now 17 days old. Seems to be healthy and moves fine but his paw is tiny and...

Ok, hopefully my last question about this. I have a great mom with 9 kits, 2 were a bit runty (1 very runty). I see that a lot of people take a few kits out at night to give the runts a better chance. I really don't want to cause a problem for the more valuable big kits. The question is - it's...

I sold two 'sisters' I just heard from the customer that she just had babies! (not happy!) LOL So, in talking to her, I offered to take both parents back (no refund) and raise the babies for her and she can pick one of the babies and start over LOL Doesn't matter to me really, I have the room...

I was reading through some older posts - don't want to hijack a thread. @KelleyBee you said you cleared out your freezer by canning meat, but didn't want to can the vegs. I'm thinking along the same lines. I bought a dehydrator and have been dehydrating any fresh vegs that we aren't going to...

Hi, me again - I did search the archives and didn't find any info on this. I have a large 13 lb doe (Gertie) who routinely has 8-10 kits with quite a variation in size. In this latest litter the largest are easily 2.5x the size of the smallest. There are probably 2-3 large ones, 2 tiny ones...

It is over 100 degrees here and will be for the foreseeable future. I have set up a mister on one end of a 40" cage and two small fans sucking air across the doe & kits on the other end. The poor things are still HOT 💃 HOT 💃 HOT 💃 (no, not in a good way) I remembered that I had made 1/2...

I have heard people here say they save the fur from old nests? How in heck do you separate it from the hay? I just spent a pretty much fruitless hour trying to remove at least SOME fur from a nest made of hay. I managed to get a couple handfuls in total - I still have a large bag of hay with...

I have some organic hay that is really just random grass/weeds. The rabbits love it and I'm happy with it. However, I used it for a nestbox filler and it caused a horrible problem. When I went out to check the babies, one seemed to be stuck. His foreleg seemed to be broken and bent weird. Upon...

I have a new litter of 9 kits. All healthy & alive. One looks really odd though. Either he has wavy hair, or no hair in stripes... Or maybe he's just not fed, he could possibly be malnourished as there were problems with the nest that I hopefully remedied today. I fully expect that his...

I have a doe ready to Kindle any moment. I lost track of time. I am trying to snake proof a cage because we have a 5 ft long corn snake in the yard. I am covering the cage with half inch hardware cloth. Has anyone got any better ideas? The cage is a wire dog kennel. I'm not sure how I'm going to...

I have set up a water misting system and the rabbits love it. However, the cages get pretty wet, especially the one that has my pregnant doe, Gertie. Mosquitoes are also a big problem here in Central Texas. So, I was thinking of bringing the nest box into the house during the day and only...

I installed a misting system across the front of my cages. It's wonderful and the rabbits love it, however it's rather windy here and the pellets in the feeding part of the J feeder sometimes get damp. It's also hot and dry when the mister is off so they seem to dry out, and not mold but I'm...
