I just thought I'd share a surprising success. I'm just getting back into Jumbo Coturnix Quail. 1st 3 hatchings 1. Old incubator 120 deg or off. No hatches 2. OK thermometer. Used refrigerated eggs. Too much humidity during lockdown/hatching (80%+). 30 eggs, 9 hatched, 6 survived 3. I forgot...

I've noticed if the rabbits don't eat all of their food and it sits waiting for 2ish days, small (weevil?) bugs appear in the food. There's nothing wrong with the food in the bag/buckets, no sign of bugs at all. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this.

The parents and grandparents of this litter were given to me. I was told they're rex, but clearly they're not 100% because the fur is too long. Neither the parents, nor grandparents of this litter had blue eyes. So I'm trying to figure out if it's just an illusion that they look blue. Thanks...

I have several New Zealand White TAMUK litters. 2 litters kindling this week. 1 litters 5 weeks old. 2 litters 7 weeks old. $40 each I also have some rex crosses (adults and kits). 4 week old New Zealand (with a little Flemish giant mixed in) also available. Just North of Gainesville Florida...

My "NZ Red" doe is clearly not 100% NZ, based on color, but especially based on this last litter. I'm certain dad is 100% NZ White TAMUK. I see 3 blacks. I'm not sure what the other 6 are. (The 1 REW in this litter died yesterday or today.)

3 does kindled today. 24 kits in total! Alvi - 1st time mom, NZ TAMUK white, 6 kits, then she died Affra - 1st time mom, NZ TAMUK white, 9 kits Nannie - experienced mom, Cali/NZ, 9 kits (All the dads are NZ TAMUK whites) Alvi kindled first. Nannie kindled a couple hours after Alvi died...

Our first litter in 12 years kindled today! (We had rabbits, took a break, and started up again in November. ) Momma (red NZ) was a proven breeder and has had many litters. She build a great nest in the nesting box. She's in a dumor cage. I came home from work and found 2 babies on the ground...

Tamuks are supposed to have a nicer disposition, that's part of why I got them. I have 6 total. I got a trio from a breeder, 2 sisters and an unrelated buck. One sister is great. She could make a fun pet. The buck has his moments, but he's good. The other doe (3 mos) attacked me today when I...

I've been doing a lot of research and reading and comparing of pellets to find the best one for me and my meat rabbits. 1. Rabbits make their own vitamin b so they don't need that in their pellets, but I've only found 2 pellets that don't add it. 1 is almost $1/lb (not economical). The other...

Hi I've been researching lots about rabbits and keep finding answers here, so I thought I should join. We started raising rabbits about 20 years ago with "Mitten," Glove", & "Hat." They were mutts we bought at the auction. We were learning, so it was OK. I don't remember exactly what...
