    Feeding grass/types of grass

    From NC: I use yard weeds a lot. Is motherwort okay? I have an abundance of it. Mine no longer free range so I pluck grass clumps - but I have 10- 20 rabbits in three colony cages. They didn't eat black raspberry canes (? - surprised me) or stinging nettle. They adore lambs quarters.

    Rat wire should keep babies safe.

    Are these rat droppings? Please advise and help!

    If there's a sphincter at work, there's meat involved. Carni or omnivore. Voles, I believe, have canines. Maybe moles too?? If canines, then meat - insects included. I have outdoor rabbits and rodents do visit and steal food. It's a risk, I am betting, but not going to stop me until it's a...

    Are chickens easier and cheaper than rabbits?

    Fat scoop a day for 25 hens, put up each night. 50 total hens. Eggs sell for $4/dz. Make money March - July; spend it August - February. On feed. Compost from local restaurant is a good way to offset costs. We don't do that. Having fresh eggs every day is awesome for your health and budget...

    help with diagnosis?

    Slightly more urgent because three of these kits - not the one pictured - are sold and will be going to new homes in the next month or two. I really cannot hand on kits that are not in great health.

    My story’s timeline

    Culling aggressive doe

    So, it's your choice, of course. My experience with our aggresive Californian was: 1)adopted at a year+and she had kindled. "Bad mother and aggressive" was the warning. I got the Rex trio and this one thrown in. I was going to practice on her (freezer camp). Hubs said he wanted to try and...

    help with diagnosis?

    I can address it easier though -the airborne fungus that gets everyone seems harder to exterminate. I'll get ivermectin tomorrow.
