Hello! I've come to humbly beg for help.
I irresponsibly made the decision to adopt a Flemish Giant without already having a home set up for him. He has a temporary set up in my bedroom, but we would like to place him outside in about a month because that is when we plan to acclimate our...
I'm hatching some coturnix quail soon and I want to keep them in some premade rabbit hutches (Pawhut 54" 2-Story Large Rabbit Hutch). From the reviews, I'm not hopefully about the quality, so I am doing to reinforce them myself. One common complaint was that urine from the top hutch was dripping...
We've had predators come through, sadly & tragically lost our ducks, they didn't want to go into the 'shed' aka little barn aka coop at night.
Do predators just knock over these small pre-built or flat-pack or assemble yourself coops?
We have a small backyard flock of 8 hens and 1 roo. I am thinking of adding a couple of rabbits to the pen. I would build the rabbits their own enclosure in the colony style but they would share the pen with the chickens.
Experienced rabbit keepers, what are the most important features of the...
I ended up getting 6 chicks instead of the 3 I had intended when I purchased and assembled my coop. I tried making an addition but my carpentry skills are lacking horrifically, and I wasted a good chunk of time and wood. So I’m wondering, would my three extra (bantam breeds) have enough room in...
My quail are 3 weeks old. I plan on keeping them outside in a rabbit hutch that’s completely sealed off with bubble wrap. It also has a large tarp over it for additional protection.
I can’t put a heating lamp inside but I can use Christmas lights. There is also plenty of straw and old cloth for...
I have 3 eight week old chicks in a small house and run next to my main coop/run doing a slow see but don't touch integration. I also bought my wife two bunnies as a surprise but we wont get them until end of next week. (she has been asking for bunnies for months and I keep telling her how we...
Hi, I am Robbine.
We just got our first flock yesterday. 3 Ameracaunas, 3 Barred Rocks, and 2 Black Sex-Linked. We are using a rabbit hutch with a heat lamp for their brooder. The lady at WFC recommended pine shavings over pellett bedding for the brooder. How often should I change it...
I thought some folks might be interested in building a rabbit hutch or an area to grow young chickens, or even a run for a few banties or quail.
I will include lots of photos. I will attempt to include a materials list, though i am building this model with scraps i have from building other...
Greetings to everyone!
I really wanted to write something useful to start my presence here with, so I decided to write about how I keep my rabbits, because it might prove useful for some.
As I'm a kind of 'celibatarian housewife' right now, I don't want to use money for the upkeep of the...
