    Encouraging ladies to lay?

    I got 4 new females three days ago and have only gotten one egg from them. I know that it can take awhile for them to adjust, but is there anything I can do to make them more comfortable? I haven’t owned this many female quail before, only one in a pair. I am feeding a 20% poultry feed and can’t...

    Rabbit hay alternative?

    I get pen pals rabbit feed from ADM feeds. And you can get hay blocks for them and see if your husband can deal with those (since they come in a feed bag and have been processed). I give mine wood blocks as well. I think I forgot to put in my miniature paragraph about letting them graze outside...

    Hello! I believe the rabbit you have is a chocolate tort Holland Lop. Where did you get it from? And most importantly, how old is it?

    Showing Quail - Which Bobwhite Quail Should I Choose?

    I show coturnix at my fair along with my buddy, and as someone said up there, feather condition and cage friendliness are the most important. Also, our judge judges them as a commercial/meat bird, so keep in mind how big they are.

    Brooder System?

    Hello! My friend and I have decided to order some hatching eggs from Myshire Farms! However, I at least am going to need a better brooder system because the Midwest is bipolar. So the hatched out chicks would be staying in the house. I have two cats (one never goes near any birds EVER) and a...

It will be split into three sections, the two closest to the ground 18” high and the one up top 12” high. The back will be solid wood and...

    New Zealand rabbit color genetics.

    Yeah I would say they are just kinda a bunch of different breeds slapped together with NZ dominating it all. There is probably a mutation that is in that color on the mom that carries to the baby that isn’t supposed to be there. So, let’s say there was a cinnamon added in the mix and that was...

    How to feed a market rabbit??

    I suggest for next year using a different breed. One girl at my fair had a Rex meat pen and literally JUST made it over 3.5 lbs at 12 weeks on the day of show. If you want to use the rexes, EXPERIMENT!!! You could go get yourself a really heavy boned doe and a buck the same and see what happens...
