    Removing Newborn Kits at Night

    Yeah we are in North Dakota and have humidifiers running probably 3/4 of the year so I haven't had a problem with moisture. I drill a couple of holes in the bottom and put a resting mat on top.

    Exterior nestboxes?

    I love his idea and I could do it with my mini lops for sure. I'm creeping around trying to find ideas for my French lops that are 12-15lbs. 🤣 any thoughts anyone?

    Linebreeding vs Genetic Diversity: What’s Your Breeding Program?

    I agree. Great job. You also helped me and my daughter with these questions. We have a heard of mini lops consisting of 6 does and 3 bucks. We are officially done collecting outside stock for awhile. Not because of diseased or the virus. Just because I *think* we have enough genetic diversity...

    Removing Newborn Kits at Night

    I use 5 gallon plastic tubs for mini lops (SUPER CHEAP). Take the lid off - cut a U shaped hole about 3 inches from the bottom using a box cutter. and cut the lid in half -put it over the back half away from the opening. Drill a few holes to be able to zip tie it to the side or bottom of the...

    Exterior nestboxes?

    So, I really like your set up idea on this~! I have a 6 hole stacker cage - if I get exterior nest boxes I wouldn't have to move them.... Im also a little on the lazy side when it comes to nest boxes... I use 5 gallon plastic tubs with half of the lid cut off and a door cut part of the side down...

    Struggling to get going and need some advice.

    ... It looks like either a botfly or a maggot hole ... What I do is a spray their pans with a mixture of teatree oil and a citrus and vodka (or witch hazel or everclear) LOL. But also, fans and fly tape around/near cages. 50 rolls of fly tape for $9 from amazon. Does wonders :LOL:

    November kindling in Illinois

    I live in North Dakota and had a doe kindle on the coldest day of the year last year. Air Temp -40 or so? I don't know, I quit keeping track after it gets below 0. My rabbits are in a barn out of the wind and snow. As suggested above they have those silicone heating mats you can really dial...

    What color is this doe?

The doe is very clearly a gold tipped steal and very probably carries d as there is an opal grandparent (Im not doubting any of her genetics). The buck (Standard...
