    That makes sense. Okay thank you. Yeah they eat solids & veggies. Also drink from the water bottle. Barely ever see them try to sneak under mom & when they do, she jumps away as if she’s not wanting to feed them

    Yes I agree. Hawaii is the best place for farms. But yeah, food, especially organic food is very expensive for a family of 5. My boys are getting bigger & eating a lot more than they used too. So here I am, raising rabbits & chickens & started a garden

    People mainly have pigs, cows, goats & chickens. I’m a hairstylist, so while talking with customers about politics & importing food comes up, I mention “living off of the land” & “doing more for ourselves” instead of buying from the stores etc. & when I mention raising rabbits for meat they are...

    I’m on the big island!! There are very few people in Hawaii that raise meat rabbits & it’s shocking to me, but I’m glad we can relate. You know the weather here lol

    I switched them into this cage. Holes are smaller. I just didn’t think they would be hopping out of the nest box, her other litters started coming out at 2 1-2 weeks old.

    So the runt was actually doing pretty well until she disappeared. The other night I heard a cry that I have never heard before & it was the fatty of the bunch in the middle of the backyard. Somehow she managed to get out of the nest box & fall out the side of the cage. I assumed it was just her...

    I tried taking the 3 big ones out so she could feed the other 6 but that didn’t work & I didn’t want to loose the whole litter so I just put them back. Over the past 2 days, I’ve noticed they are all with full belly’s, even the runt! so I’m not bottle feeding them anymore, but I do feel that the...

    The 3 biggest kits are overly fat & the other 6 are thin. I’m assuming it’s time to start bottle feeding
