We have never noticed this sound before and it was pretty loud. My husband took him inside and after he calmed down for a few minutes the sound lessened but still...

    Missing fur on tail

    Today I just noticed our blue buck topaz is missing the fur on his tail. I would say about 80% Its not red and no dandruff. And he's not missing fur from anywhere else. Is it possible its just weird molting or maybe his pulling it off? Its very strange to see a rabbit with a bare tail... not...

    Preferred tattoo method?

    Does anyone have recommendations on tattoos? I like the way the "gun" looks compared to the "stamp" ones. But i have no idea on price or what is actually best for our needs. I would love some opinions on the different types. And then comes the size. We have silver foxes so there ears a pretty...

    Genetics is not my strong suit.

    We just bought a blue silver fox doe and the breeder e-mailed me her pedigree. I didn't realize she had chocolate (& lilac) in her line. Can anyone help me with the probability of getting chocolate or lilac kits from her? Our rabbit are for meat but colors are still fun :]]

    Moving mom and week old kit

    Our silver fox doe Ruby had a one live kit. She is feeding it and its growing great. The problem is that she can't stay in her current cage (inside the house), its too small. We have an out door hutch made and ready for her. We will also have to change the nesting box (cardboard) because its not...

    *new question* Is this a common thing?

    Next weekend we plan on picking up a blue silver fox (about 9 weeks old). When I was first talking to her about 8 weeks ago she sent this message "I have had snuffles in my barn and I am currently breeding only the rabbits that have shown a resistance to it. I would never sell a rabbit that was...

    Finding better hay.

    So right now we have a large amount of Timothy hay we bought from farm and fleet. Both bucks refuse to eat any of the small pieces and it seems that more than half of it is to small to interest them. Should I expect this from all hay bought in a store? Would we have better luck buying from a...

    Rabbit Chew "Toys" and such

    I have been looking into things for our rabbits to chew on. I've found lists of tree branches but sadly none of the ones that are 100% okay for rabbit are on our property. We have a a few black locus trees, but I have found some people say that the branches are not okay and some say just no the...

    Breeding half uncle

    We just bought 3 silver fox rabbits (2 does 1 buck) to breed for meat and to sell. Turns out one of our does is actually a buck. He is a 1/2 brother of our doe. The question is if we keep a doe from her litter with the unrelated buck is it a good idea to breed them? We are worried about selling...
