Does anyone have information on Druid Hills line? I am trying to get additional information on a couple of my bucks pedigrees. I am looking specifically for information on DH Albert and DH Fire. Photo of Caspian for attention. Thank you!

Best bunny ever, she is. She delivered litter 3 last week. 14 kits! And talk about color, she tried to cover them all. This girl has been amazing. She first kindled 6, then 11 last round. 100% survival rate and raised them by herself. She pulls enough fur for two litters. I guess technically...

My Flemish Giant doe is due to kindle on Monday. Yesterday she started having labored breathing. She miscarried two preemie kits today. I am sure she has more, but I can't feel them with her. Not eating much, drinking a little and still labored breathing. This is her second kindle. She was...

These little butterballs are 3 weeks old. They were quite dark when born and have continued to get lighter. I think they are blue chinchilla, but am really not sure. They come from my black otter doe that I bred to a castor that carries chinchilla. (Yeah, I am learning. No chin next time.) The...

This has been a spring of too many firsts. 40 kits born in March and only 18 left. They have died for various reasons: too cold, too many in a kindle (16), broken neck, legs eaten off one (mouse?), FTT, and now..... I have a mama that doesn't seem to be nursing or cleaning her kits. She has...

Hello All, This is a doe that I purchased back in December from a breeder. I have had issues with her about 3 weeks after her arrival when she kindled. She kindled again 9 days ago. 5 fall offs, 3 kits. She lost two of them from the cold but I gave her two from another doe. She is fat, even...

I am so excited. I just purchased 3 beautiful otters. Their fur is amazing and they are great size. I was even more thrilled when I entered their information into my pedigree system and learned that their line contains LOTS of legs. Their great grand Dam has 21 legs. The photos are not that...

Hello Friends, I just want to send out a warning of concern. It seems some companies are changing the ingredients for their pellets. I noticed this in my pellets about two months ago. I had a bag with lots of dried corn kernels in it. Upon further observation, I saw small pieces of corn in the...

These are two of my daughter-in-laws kits Could you please tell me what color they are considered? They are just meat mutts, but we are trying to learn to identify colors. Thank you!

Okay Friends, after last week, I need a positive post. And what could be more positive than these lovely little kits from Hershey and Patterson. 11 beautiful babies! I took the time to take photos of each one today. They are eight days old. I would love to have you experts tell me what colors...

I have two litters of Rex just born Sunday and Monday this week. I was so excited that I would be able to put together some trios for some, new to rabbit, breeders. A quick count Sunday of 8 kits. Hershey has them nearly out of my reach. Monday Henrietta had 6 kits. Yeah, super thrilled. All...

I woke up at 4:30 AM yesterday and hopped out of bed to go out and check on my rabbits. Lily had kindled late the night before (11:00ish) and all her kits were at the front of her nest box without a strand of fur on them. Thankfully they were all squirmy and together and she is my predictable 31...

Is anyone willing to tutor me on some color/genetics? I am only just over a year into raising rabbits. I have a purebred litter, 6 kits, of Rex that I would like to know the genetic lettering for to add to their pedigree. I would like to learn from an experienced person so I can learn how to...

Snicker's first kindle. This is my latest litter, now 11 days old. They are 1/2 Flemish Giant, 1/4 New Zealand and 1/4 Harlequin. Snickers, who I've raised from a baby, had 7 beautiful kits. Her parents were both FG/NZ cross. Mama was sandy and Sire was broken blue. Bullet, sire to current...

My doe is 35 days pregnant. She is trying to expel the kits. One success so far. Very large and DOA. With everything I am reading it is Dystocia. Does anyone have experience with this? What can I do for her? There is no vet in our area that for rabbits. Please help with treatment ASAP! Thank you.

Meet Hershey & Patterson. I am so excited to have these two successfully mate. They are the first purebred kindle in my rabbitry. Today I have 6 beautiful Rex babies. So you color experts, any ideas?

This is my second litter from my little NZ/Chin doe. Haylee is the sweetest mama I have. She also takes great care of her kits. This has been so beneficial for their growth. I kept a doe from her first litter (after I got her) who is now over 9 pounds at 18 weeks. Haylee was headed to freezer...

I will be the first to admit, I do not understand the coloring of rabbits. I have a litter of bunnies that are a quarter mix of Rex, Chinchilla, Flemish and Harlequin. The babies are all so different. The runt had a G on her side. It was so cool. Unfortunately, she did not survive. She just...

My rabbit, Lily, just kindled Saturday. 11 kits. It appears she has mastitis. My guess. I have put 4 of the kits with two other mamas. I have massaged her and used a warm cloth on her. What else should I be doing? Any herbs or weeds that can help? Thank you!
