Mine are about 3' off the ground. I made a 4' chicken wire fence around the hutches so they cant get to the bunnies.

I was reading on another forum about what could or couldn't be fed to rabbits and found this info. Thought it might help people here. Not alot of info but it gives the names of plants that are toxic or some that are not good for rabbits. http://www.adoptarabbit.com/articles/toxic.html Just...

Yea I am thinking put rabbit fencing 3 or 4' from the ground and move the electric fence above that. This dog will jump right into a 4 wheel drive truck bed from the side when standing next to the truck.:he:he:he

I was thinking the same thing about doing harm to the does should they get pregnant now. I will not bred them till things settle down with the rabbits and dogs.:idunno I hear what you are saying. My Golden lab would be a bit easier to do that with. The chocolate lab no so much. He is very...

Saturday I picked up 2 Californian does and a NZ buck. When I was putting them in my outdoor cages my labs went wild. They cannot get into or break the cages, but they make the rabbits very nervous trying their best to get to the rabbits. I then went and put up an electric fence to keep the dogs...

Thanks I wish I had some place like that to get me some of them.

Is that for breeders ready to breed or for ones just weaned?

Thanks for the help. I will heed the advice given and try to make an informed choice as to what to get when I go to the breeders place on Saturday.:D

I finally finished my rabbit cages and have them hanging in a rack I built. Now I need some NZ breeders. I was told by friends and family who had rabbits around me to sell. After contacting all the people on my list, everyone was out of breeding stock. I can buy some if I travel about an hour...

Thanks for the info folks. I will have to teach them I make alot of noise when I am in and around the shop. When I do get some rabbits I will have the mower off to the side and once they get settled I can run it around passing closer and closer to them till they adjust. I finished the frame...

Thanks, I will try to get them use to the mower before I breed them. They will be in raised cages so maybe they wont mind too much.

I have started building my rabbit hutch/cages. Only thing is the best place for me to put it is right next to my 60" commercial zero turn lawn mower. Will rabbits get use to the noise or would it be too much for them to handle?

Wife will not be allowed around the rabbits.;) She will want to start naming them and I told her no matter what you name them they will be supper at some point.:D I could never raise free range chickens or rabbits. I have to labs. The golden would be easy to teach to leave the animals alone...
