    Help! found rabbit in yard. She's having babies now, what to do???

    Mr. Nappy : Quote: I think that must have been someone else. He has not posted any pictures of rabbits in this forum. My wife posted the pics in a different thread, one in which we were trying to find out the rabbit's breed when it showed up in our yard. I'll upload pics here soon Mama24...

    My Rabbit Journey~New Pics pg 17

    Hey Jamie, do you have any pictures of your grow out pens? I'm trying to get as many designs in my head as possible before I ask my hubby to build me anything else.

    Anyone else seen this behavior? Hen laying down to eat.

    Ok, I have a two year old Black Australorp that decided to go broody about 3 months ago. Got her a light brahma and EE chick to raise (lost the EE to severe crossbeak at about a 6 wks old). Ever since then, the brahma is now huge and fluffy and no longer with "mama", I've noticed her laying...

    Cat question.

    My adult cats were fine with our first baby (by babies 2,3,&4 they were old hats at it) we just introduced each one very slowly, reassured them by talking softly and petting them while I held the baby. Took them a few days to get used to the idea but in the end they loved the baby. That's not...

    Cat question.

    Sounds like this is your first baby? If so, I would recommend waiting to get the kitten till you have adjusted to the baby. The baby will be a huge adjustment for at least a month with sleep schedules and such. Bringing a kitten into the mix right before seems a bit overwhelming for both you...

    Whats the best bedding for a guinea pig?

    I know this is a little late, but thought I'd chime in anyway. I am in the process of switching my daughters' guinea pigs from pine to carefresh. Yes it is more expensive but the odor control is so much better in their small bedroom. Just thought I'd share.

    stray rabbits

    What you're doing is awesome! I love all the pictures too. Can you post a few more of your enclosure? I'd love to see the entire set up, I am very interested in how you have it set up. I had my DH build me a double hutch a year and a half ago for my buns but I've been wanting to figure out how...

    How much a month?

    Well, I don't have breeding meat stock yet, just two pets. I get a 50# bag at the feed store for $15 or so and it lasts a good two months easily. I also supplement their pellets with timothy hay which I buy a flake at a time for $5 (if I had somewhere to store a bale I'd do that since it's so...

    Does anyone breed Silver Fox rabbits?

    Thank you for the pictures!!! They're beautiful! As for the doe's temperament, do you know if it's just yours or have you had other does that were a bit wacky? I really would rather have friendly buns than non friendly but I was hoping for something other than CA or NZ which are everywhere out...

    Does anyone breed Silver Fox rabbits?

    You'd think there would be but I'm having a tough time finding any! Hopefully, that's a good thing though since there could be a market for any extra babies I end up with.

    Does anyone breed Silver Fox rabbits?

    I would love to see pictures if you do! When we have meat rabbits eventually, this is the breed we're going with as long as I can find a breeder to get some from.

    To Disbud or Not

    Even though I don't own goats (yet) when we started looking into them a bit ago I had decided to make sure any we got were disbudded. I know it's a bit scary but with four children, two of which are under 10, it just made more sense to not have horns. I believe it's done really early so you...

    Skinny Pigs and Guinea Pigs

    If you do decide to get a rabbit for a friend, be really careful with size. Guinea pigs can get hurt very easily by a rabbit (even a dwarf) because of their large feet and jumping capacity (getting squashed being landed on). It's also very hard to make sure the gp gets the right amount of it's...

    storage cube cages????

    The C&C cages started out being used for Guinea Pigs originally. They were such a hit that people started adapting them for other indoor pets like rabbits, rats, chinchillas, etc. They are a fabulous design for GPs but for the ones that chew like rabbits, you'd have to be extra careful with...
