looking for someone that would be willing to have an observer / assistant in the northern indiana / sw michigan area during their next rabbit dispatch and butcher. i raise purebred champagne to sell to 4h and others for breeding, but also for meat when desired. now have a couple extra 4 mo old...

ahh, that is one thing I did not account for...stress. mom 1 is due in a couple days and I just brought her into the new environment yesterday. Should have allowed more time to acclimate to the new accommodations. mom 2 is due on the dec 10 so I brought her over today in hopes that she will have...

thanks, almost forgot about that. I used the same cage over summer for a mom and kits, and they were popping right through. in this case, they would have fell down into the poop pan.

maybe i am just being an over protective parent here, but this is my first winter with pregnant does and new kits. winter is here and temps will be getting down into the low 10's over the next 30 days. I have two pregnant does (due Dec1 and Dec11) that I have brought/will bring inside...

I have a buck/doe pair that have mated successfully a couple times. this last time, she did not want anything to do with the buck. ran around and would not lift. finally after 3 days of putting them together (3 times of putting them together, observing no good interactions), on day 4 she seemed...

sorry, I missed this reply - still getting used to the layout. I should have taken this down once they were all sold. I have several males that I am looking to sell and will start a new post. thank you.

Thank you - many good points. we are in n. indiana and we will get plenty of snow this winter, so frequently moving the tractor will not be a good option once it starts. I spent the time and money to build the shelter, so I might as well use it, but will probably keep them in the tractors until...

guess that information would have helped. its currently getting down into the mid 30's F at night, with expected lows in the 20s/teens over the next couple of weeks. it will get down 0 f at some point. the hutches are also outdoors and will experience the same temperatures, but in an...

general question on when to bring rabbits into the hutch from a tractor. 1st year rabbitry here. I have been keeping many of my rabbits in tractors all summer and fall, and am wondering when, if at all, that I need to bring them into wind protected hutches. The tractors have an insulated...

It is 1" higher in the middle and slopes to the edges.

As my first tractor project,, i built a 3' x 6' rabbit tractor with an 18" insulated, waterproof nesting/sleeping area. The box area and roof is covered with rubber roofing from rv surplus. The nesting area is elevated off the ground with a 1/2" cage bottom for air flow and to allow poop to...
