if i posted pics of my 6 bunnies and the 4 babies i have in a nest can anyone here tell me what breeds they r and what the standard color name is for them?
i know some r lops, dutch ect. and need to know if they look purebreed or mixed. they r suppost to be all purebreed but i'm not sure if the breeds i was told r right on some of them. we r trying to learn the names of the colors also. we will be showing them this year so i need to learn these things,lol.
i know i have 2 bucks and a 4 does i can sex them so that's not a prob there.
also i have 2 possible moms for the babies i don't know who mom is. day after i got one of the does i had babies but my lop is who pulled fur and the new one is who is nurseing and careing for them. breeder says noway black one is a mom and her last batch is now 11 weeks old baby was still nurseing some from her when she seprerated them. her baby was to old to nurse and found a different home. is it possible this mom adopted and is fostering my lops first litter or is the black one the mother? the lop guards them but is not careing for them , never seen her attept to nurse them or care for them. lost a baby today so i seperated the black mom and brought her and nest inside since she is who i see careing for them and nurseing. mom and babies r doing good.
a few other questions i had is can rex breed be crossed with other breeds or will it make a genetic defect that kills the babies? something due to causeing birth deffects of the jaws or heads or something causeing babies not to eat or mothers to not properly be able to nurse them?? she also told me can't put males together and can't put a pregnant female in with other non pregnant female. is that true too?
sorry so many questions we just want to make sure we r doing everything right. i have boys seperated, mom? and babies seperated and the other 3 girls r together, 2 of which have been together since last march as babies dh bought me for my birthday at tsc. i have always raised my boys with boys and girls with girls and never had to seperate them except to breed. does this breeder know what she is talking about??? what do u guys think? i can post pics if someone can help me on breed and colors will take them tomarrow and post.
big thanks,
silkie
