I like this coated wire from Amazon. It's expensive but works very well. Fencer Wire 16 Gauge Black Vinyl Coated Welded Wire Mesh Size 0.5 inch by 1 inch (3 ft. x 50 ft.)

Well done! Congratulations!

Hi MelC! I missed your post the first time around, so thank you for resending it! The information you've provided is so helpful, and honestly what I believed to be true. I greatly appreciate your wisdom and experience. What a treasure trove of information!

How many rabbits will that amount of germinated seed feed?

Thank you for reminding me of the simple, and perhaps biologically complex, nature of a natural species-appropriate diet. It seemed counterintuitive to feed the dam the great variety of foods I offered her all along and then stop the moment the kits ventured out of the nest. Between written...

I would have liked to see those puppies make their first food choice! What a testament to their preference. I see you have a pelletizer. I would love as much information on your experience using it as you care to give. I'm seriously considering purchasing one later this year.

Rabbit Warren Man: Thank you for your very helpful reply! I fully understand your need to make sure I know this is what you do. That's exactly what makes this conversation so helpful and why I asked the question here. Gathering the experience from different rabbit folks, in my opinion, is...

I've read that the kits can't eat anything but pellets and that feeding them fresh cuttings of anything will make them sick and possibly kill them. I do feed them hay along with the doe. This thread is right down my alley as I'm growing a sizable "rabbit pasture" and have access to blackberry...

Welcome to a wonderful forum with the nicest people around! I'm Coleen from Council, and have NZ's and one Silver Fox buck. I'm looking at fodder trees/shrubs too as well as utilizing my small east pasture for their hay. I love my rabbits!

Thank you!

I would be interested in getting Katelynn's creme pair. Where did Katelynn get her Cremes from? I'd love to see pictures!

Thank you for your very helpful input! The dog world pedigree for my breed can go back to the very early 1900's and is held in a database that is managed with the utmost caution to insure that records are not falsified and can be verified by the American Kennel Association, the organization...

Thank you so much!! I think I'll be ready this spring for a Creme breeding trio and Rex breeding trio. My NZ rabbits are purebred with papers. My Silver Fox is purebred without papers. I've found one resource to register and obtain a pedigree. I didn't sign up and pay to join because I was...

I do feel very fortunate to have found this group so early in my rabbit world. I am really enjoying the forum and have met so many great people!

Hi Nibbles! Thank you for the welcome! I have NZ and Silver Fox.

Hi, and thank you for the welcome! I started last summer and wish I had considered rabbits more seriously a long time ago! I love them! Do you raise your rabbits in a colony? I ask because you mentioned bunnies in the yard. I'm fascinated by all the different approaches to raising these...

Hello Buknee!! It's great to meet someone from my part of the world! I'm breeding for meat. I was actually hoping to find someone close to me with Cremes to bring into my rabbitry. I am considering crosses for genetic diversity but also want to keep purebred lines. I've been reading a lot...

Thank you! It's such a nice place to be!

Thank you, TJ! This is such a lovely group and so helpful!

My does are all NZ, and I have one NZ buck and one Silver Fox buck. That Silver Fox buck is a delightful fellow. Friendly, and very gentle with the does. He's quite the gentleman! The NZ buck is younger and very sweet. He's not as friendly as Pete, the SF, but a nice boy. I have no...
