    All kits are blobs?

    Hi, Rabbit momma is due this week and I found one blob on Monday/Tuesday and 4 more blobs today... They seem to be whole kits, but they don't seem to be fully formed... At least one kit was a wet gelatinous mess. This doe has already had a successful batch of kits before, I don't know why she...

    Wow another fermented feed thread. I tried to ferment feed on Thursday and I think it worked, I saw bubbles and it smelled funky. However, I used tap water and yogurt with pasteurized acv, I don't know how it worked but it did. Now I moved the started fermented feed into a larger bucket today...

    Rabbit in colony setup

    Hi, I'm wondering if it would be OK to room a male rabbit with 2 does and 9, 10 week old, kits? The space of the room they're in (not cage room) is at least 8x10. One doe has already been mated with (2 days ago). I could keep the poor guy in a cage but if I have the space I want him to be more...

    Large White Turkeys Starter

    Hello everyone. I called multiple feed stores and they don't carry turkey feed, the two stores that carried it. Both of them have only 25% minimum, one of the stores said they've been using this feed for 25 years on bronze and white turkeys. Do you think I should buy this feed? Thanks

    Converting old shed to Barn/Coop

    Hi, so I recently received permission to use an old shed and I was wondering what the best way would be to transform it into a usable area to house poultry.

    Hi, I know this is probably a stupid thing to ask but I have some chicks and I was told the hens were red sex links and I hatched the eggs. Only 2 came out of the batch and I was wondering if someone could sex them or confirm they're red sex link. They're about 3 weeks.

    Hay

    Just ordered 4 small squares of Alfalfa hay as quail bedding, does anyone have any experiences to share? Will the quail eat the hay? Will they feel comfortable? The sellers of the hay insured it's mold free. How easy is hay to clean and find eggs in vs wood shaving? Thanks
