    Kitten won't eat

    I guess my main question is, will he naturally start eating on his own with time, or is that something I'm going to have to teach him? I know it might be kinda a stupid question, but like I said earlier, I don't know anything about cats, and I honestly have no idea what I'm doing

    He attacks it as soon as it's in his reach.

    Kitten won't eat

    So, we recently rescued an abandoned kitten that some random person dumped in some random truck until it was found a couple days later and brought to our house half starved. I took it in to TSC and they told me that he was about 3 weeks old. I've been bottle feeding him ever since and now he...

    Feed

    What would be the best thing to feed Pekin ducks? I have a single male, when I bought him I thought he was female so I'd buy him the egg laying formula. That's what I continue to feed him but I want to switch him to a more substantial diet (especially with winter coming soon) he eats a LOT of...

    Age

    Hi, does anybody know how long a flemish giant rabbit will live? I have three, two does (at the ages of 2 and 3 yrs) and one buck (5 to 6 yrs old. I don't know his exact age because I bought him from a butcher shop). And I breed these rabbits, and over the past couple years my does have always...

    Rabbits Won't breed

    I'll keep that in mind. I've never really had problems with that, but it's something I'll look out for. Thanks again

    Rabbits Won't breed

    Yes, I try to handle the kits more often, for every now and then I actually have someone ask me if they could buy one, so those are used to being held. (Plus the neighbor kids love coming over to play with them) Just the adults aren't. I avoid handling my females when their pregnant, meaning...

    Rabbits Won't breed

    Well yes, I see your point, but remember in the wild they don't get picked up every day by humans. My concern is that I might crush a few unborn bunnies in my attempt to hold her still not that she can't handle being pregnant and nursing at the same time. My rabbits aren't "cuddle bunnies" they...

    Rabbits Won't breed

    Sorry if I'm annoying you guy with all the questions, this is just the first time I've force nursed any of my rabbits, and to me it sounds more sensible to wait till she's done nursing before breeding her again. If she gets pregnant, I don't want to crush any unborn bunnies when I pick her up to...

    Rabbits Won't breed

    Wait, I should breed her even tho she's still in the nursing process? How long do I have to force nurse anyway, until the kit is weaned, or is there a time limit?

    Rabbits Won't breed

    How long should I wait to breed her again? As soon as she is able? Or should I giver her a break and let her be on her own for a few days first?

    Rabbits Won't breed

    I'm curious, would force nursing help her to want to raise her next batch, or maker her dread it. Because when I introduce the baby to her, she freaks out and grunts and kicks, but once it starts nursing she calms right down... I don't know if she likes this or hates it.

    Rabbits Won't breed

    Can you breed them while they're still nursing young? Cuz I'm force nursing the survivor at the moment. Should I wait and breed her again till after it grows? (Or dies, which ever comes first)

    Baby bunny needs your help!

    Ok, my rabbit had a litter of six the other night, then tried to kill them all right off the bat. I honestly don't know what happened, all I know it that when I fed her yesterday there were no babies, then when I went out today there were dead ones scattered all over her nest. One of them...
