Well, our milker goat is giving us some issues. She hasn't ever given us any complaint about her food till recently, nothings changed about it, but now she only eats a little and acts like that's all we gave her. It looks like shes only eating the rolled oats and the corn :( she wont eat the...

We just looked at out little two month old doeling and she has four teats, it that to terribly bad? will she be easy to milk or more difficult?

She has diarrhea, and a light fever and its on and off diarrhea, some times its normal some times its not. we have been giving her some heavy garlic and pro-bios, but shes not getting any better. If it were my goat and the organic attempts weren't working I would have her on some real medicine...

She is only a year old and has been bred 3 times in her life. She had 4 babys the first time and 2 the last two tries. We are considering getting rid of her but she is to flighty sell, we are thinking of eating her, but I have heard that old rabbits are very tough. Does any one have any other...

Is this usual for goats to not be all that hungry for a while after delivering? She is usually ravenous, but these last 2 days she hasn't been interested in food, Shes eating, just not like normal. Or is it that she has been eating like a pregnant goat and now shes not? We dont want her...

Here I am in the kitchen trying to help a shrink wrapped duckling when all of a sudden I hear a scream like no other! I run out side to look and see, oh my gosh, Lucy is in labor! So I set my boyfriend on helping the duckling and run to check on Lucy, she already had the tiny hoofs out and once...

You know those crazy little fleshy tassels on their necks! We just made a new friend and he says his doe is a mini Nubian Pygmy cross, the father is the Pygmy. He gave us a buckling who is really sweet. But the guy doesn't know what the little deelee-bop tassels are either, could some one please...

We had to butchered our first one yesterday, because she wouldn't be trained and wouldn't stop screaming at 4 in the morning, every morning. I expected flailing like chickens, I just forgot that it would be on a larger scale. It took her a while to stop kicking and she screamed a bit, it was...

We have gone over many methods, but haven't settled on one to use yet, we are looking at pellet guns but we dont know what to look for or any thing, so how do yall dispatch your bunnies? If you use a pellet gun please say what kind and what power ect! Thank you :)

We have three week old NZ+REX cross babies, theres only two, but will they be ready to be weaned by the time the next litter is born if we re-breed now? We dont want to rush her in to another pregnancy, but we want to know if she is going to continue to have tiny litters.

We have a minimacha girl and we aren't sure how far along she is, when we got her she had been bred about a month before( that's what they said ), we got them in early March so she was bred in February. Top view of Lucy View of her hoo hoo(having to chase her in circles with me petting her...

My question is how do you milk a doe while she is nursing a kid? How does the kid get milk with out us having to bottle feed it? Silly question I know, but these are things that haven't been specifically answered for me, we are in tough financial times, so I dont have money for books yet. All...

Just wondering, because if this is her normal we might have to eat her, we are proud to be new baby bunny grandparents but we are just a little confused by the size of the litter and the size of the babies. I've seen pictures on here and the babies are just so tiny,ours are monsters compared...

*OMG* So she probably delivered last night. They are really cute but we are wondering about some thing... The babies are HUGE and there are only two, I'll post pictures after shes done feeding them, but they look like the fetal giants that I've seen posted on here, except that they are alive and...

We aren't and alfalfa is more expensive around here, but can it be fed full time?

None of the feed stores have loose goat minerals! They act like they have never heard of such a thing! We had to settle with a salt lick for them. They are licking it and not chewing it like I've heard they do. There is a big hole they have made from licking it, so it kind of looks like a block...

This is our first successful breed with this girl but not her first litter, shes supposed to be a really good mama. Its several days before the 28 day mark but I noticed she had started pulling fur today, I hope its not to early to put in the nesting materials right? I'm sort of afraid she'll...

When we go out side all they do is baaaah at us at the top of their lungs. We go out in the morning to give them their grain and they have hay free choice. In the afternoon they get all the attention they could ever want when our friends drop by from after school work ect... We got them a week...

See third post for Info.

Our buck is having trouble hitting the target, in fact, he keeps turning around and hitting her head. He's done it before but he was too young at the time and our doe has had a litter before. She isn't showing any signs of letting him mate her, should I just hold her? How do you hold a rabbit...
