    Updated pics of my mini rex litter

    That's what some were saying on a previous thread when the babies were younger. I was wanting to check again now that they're older. I guess blue tort it is. He/she is adorable either way.

    Sorry..another post about my mini rex babies

    Hey all, First I want to thank everyone for all their help so far! I started a new topic because I wanted to make sure people see these pictures and maybe can help me figure out the color on this bunny. I've never seen this before, but I'm sure some of you have. The red baby is now 2 weeks old...

    New pics of mini rex babies..10-11 days old

    The black tort baby has white on her legs and belly like it's mom, but it's mom is red...too much color to be showable. Here is the earlier pic of the babies that shows that one's markings better. This is the mother of the black tort baby. Her stomach is white with red splotches. The...

    Pics of my breeding stock of meat rabbits

    I bought a couple of mini rexes at an auction once. It was my first time there and with it being so fast paced, and me being shy I didn't think to figure out boys or girls before I bid. So I bid on 2 based on the dewlap, assuming that with one it would be a doe. Nope..one of them was very much a...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    Here is a picture of the babies with their nice full bellies! The one on the bottom looks like she'll be red to me. I have no idea about the one on top. Any ideas? I know it's hard to see his/her color in the picture. The mama to that one is either opal or blue otter. There's a picture of her...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    Another update..the last 2 babies are still alive and seem to be thriving. They both have grown and are getting more hair in. They also both have big round tummies today, so they are getting fed. Mama Jana is getting alfalfa hay and strawberries as treats and lots of lovin for being a good mama...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    Well..so far so good on the last 2. I've been keeping them under the heat lamp. They're both still alive, have grown and are starting to get a little more fur. They appear as if they're getting fed. They are sleeping calmly and their skin is tight like they're hydrated. I haven't seen really...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    Well I lost 3 more babies...now we're down to 2..1 from each of the does. I got home from work late last night and checked on them...even bundled up in the nest they got cold. I turned on a heat lamp in the cage and rubbed the 2 living ones to warm them up. They're still alive today. I don't...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    I may have jumped the gun with putting them together, but I really don't think that Ruby is taking care of these babies. She doesn't seem to want anything to do with them. Jana is actually in the box with the babies and paying attention to them. I figure they have a better chance with Jana. I...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    I was thinking those would work well too. I'll keep my eyes out for them. Jana (the 2nd mama) seems like a better mom than Ruby. She had 3, but one was dead..of course it was the blue one. She was actually in the box with the babies, and had pulled lots of fur to make a nest. I took a handful...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    Well..another doe had babies today. I think I figured out what happened. I have 3 mini rex does. I put 2 of them in with the buck on the same day, but didn't write it down. I could have sworn I did it on the 26th of December, but it looks like it was earlier than that. I was also mistaken on...

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    Well...I check them this morning and we had lost one. The other 3 are still active and moving around, but I can't tell if she's fed them. Their bellies aren't big, but it's 11am..so she may have fed them earlier this morning. I put a heat lamp on in the cage last night because they aren't...

    Please Help Me Evaluate my Mini Rex Does!

    I have mini rexes but I don't have enough experience to evaluate yours. I did find this on the net, seems pretty easy to follow. Hopefully someone who shows mini rexes will chime in and help you out. http://cottonwoodfarms.tripod.com/pencil.html

    New mini rex litter..advice needed

    Hey all I'm going to try and keep this short and not write a novel. I'm sure the answers to my questions are elsewhere on the board, I'm just nervous and want to know what to do here lol. I finally got my first litter of mini rex babies today. I tried all summer with no results, I'm guessing...

    Pics of my pair of mini rexes

    The stuff around his eyes and on his nose was white and scabby. I googled it and the results were some sort of mange. I took him to see the vet my friend worked for, and they both agreed. He was given a shot of ivermectin then and another a week later and it cleared up completely. There must not...

    Pics of my pair of mini rexes

    Vienna huh? I've not heard of that. I'll have to google it. I don't know their parents. The doe came from tractor supply and I got the buck free from someone off craigslist. He was given to me with a bag of carrots, and from his condition I was wondering if that's all they were feeding him. Then...

    Pics of my pair of mini rexes

    This is Smokey, my blue buck. His coat is kinda rough..any ideas on how to make it better? This is Ruby my broken red doe. I couldn't get her to sit still. I'm guessing she's got way too much color for a broken huh?

    Some questions (kinda long)

    Bunnylady... Thanks for the good advice. I'll be setting up the other cage for the buck and keep them seperated for a while. I'll give her some time to mature a little more since I'm not sure how old she is. I got her several months ago, and she was young, but not a tiny baby. I got her at...
