I did have a few Q's about breeding. Can I breed a half bother to a half sister or a uncle to the niece? Or is it a REALLY BAD THOUGHT? :hide If it is, I don't mind. Its just A REALLY good excuse FOR ME to get a new rabbit! :P :woot

Hi all! I thought I would let you know that she had 10 KITS on the 3rd!! and all are doing well!!! I did have to bottle feed 2 of them for 3 days but after that she did great!! She was bred to a new buck to see how he would do and the colors are sssoooo cool!! here they are...

It looks like someone is pulling out the fur to me!

well they are drinking water out of the bucket, so maybe if I put the milk replacer in place of the water? will that work? sssooo sorry for all of the Q's!! :hide I just want to see them do well!!! :fl

hmm, southdown? could they be minis and thats why they are small?

SHOULD I TRY to bottle feed them or not?

thats what the paper said so I guess so. I just wormed them. they are 15-20lbs? they are eating a lot of hay, so no problems there! should I get med or non med feed? sweet grain or just plane grain?

So there is no problem with horns and you? I ask as I am seeing some with horns for sale and am trying to get them, but I know my mom does not think that it will be safe with me having goats with horns. I had a sheep ram butting me when he was older, he did not have horns thank god but this she...

Oh, and has anyone have a Pygmy Nigerian dwarf cross doe? I ask as some one I know has a little doe for sale. The same Q's I asked of the pure nigerian, I would like answered on the cross as well.

I have been thinking for getting this breed for awhile now but I can't seem to find much info on them!! so I thought I would ask all of you!! Are they screamers when they are in heat like the nubians are? What is the temperament of the doe and buck, are they prone to head butting? and how do i...
