I have been feeding a 17% protein pellet from my local feed store to all my rabbits from grow outs to adult bucks & does but I have found a 15% protein pellet that would save me 50% over the 17% pellet I've been feeding... this wd save me quite a bit of $$$ over the course of a year but I'm...
I'm considering getting a couple goats... mostly as lawnmowing pets & I really don't care to breed them so wd it be best to have 2 does, 2 wethers, or a doe & a wether which wd be the best pairing as far as the goats getting along & living the most enjoyable life?
I've had 3 does have litters in the last 2wks & none of them have pulled any fur at all... they're all NZW or nzxcali, I'm raising them indoors & I keep the room about 75° could that have anything to do with it?
I bought a couple californian does Thursday they're 9 months old & nice & healthy... my issue is 1 of these does started pulling fur last night & it looked like a rabbit exploded in her cage, the man I bought them from said he was fairly sure she hadn't been exposed to a buck but I've never seen...
My big gray doe is kindling on the wire & a baby fell out on the floor... as far as I can tell it's the 1st one so I put it in the nest box & she jumps in the nest box & starts digging through the hay very aggressively. She hasn't pulled any fur & she's very nervous acting so I turned off the...
I've been looking for a nzw buck but I haven't had any luck in finding one, I have found a few nz red & broken red bucks that are supposed to be pedigreed. Do you think the nz red buck would be as good as a nzw for breeding meat rabbits?
I bought a hanging set of cages & the doe came with it... I'm unsure of what she is, I was told she's 1/2 flemish & 1/2 nz I'm curious what does everyone else think?
I have 3 young cali/nz cross does & I've recently aquired a 1/2 nz 1/2 flemish doe that I bred to a nz buck. My question is do you think if I keep a buck out of her litter making him 3/4 nz 1/4 flemish & breed him to my 3 young does do I stand to gain anything as apposed to just breeding them...
I have 16 kits that are 3-3 1/2 wks old & they're starting to eat pellets & hay I have a lady that wants to buy 4 as quick as I can get them to her what would be a suitable age to wean the 4 kits?
I have a buck that I recently bought along with a couple of does. I was feeding him the other day & I thought he spit water at me, well I was feeding this evening & it happened again. I smelled it & realized he had peed on me from 5 feet away. Is this something a lot of bucks do or is he freaked...
I have an opportunity to trade some chickens I have for a trio of rabbits either calufornian or new zealand which would be the best for somebody just getting into rabbit breeding?
I'm just starting to breed rabbits & I'm unsure how long to leave the buck in with the does I put them together for about 20 mins but he never fell over to the side so I'm not sure if it was a success he wked real hard at it though but never displayed the signs I've heard ppl mention on here
I just got into breeding rabbits I have 2 NZW does I believe one is a cross I bought them as bred does one has kindled a litter of 7 the other has yet to kindle. I don't currently have a buck but a lady has offered to give me a dutch buck would he be suitable to breed to my does? I'm breeding...
