Thanks yes I limit the amount that they get.

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

Thank you. I see some bunnies at the pets stores “6 weeks old” so I wanted other opinions

What’s your thoughts on baby bunnies going to their homes at 6 or 7 weeks old? Instead of 8...

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

They’ll be 4 weeks this Saturday

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.

Here’s a picture of them 06/13/19 @ 12 days 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’m wondering if it’s the genetics. Doe is Californian X New Zealand Buck is Californian X New Zealand X Flemish

Here’s the biggest & the runt

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

I was just worried that because she has 9 kits, they wouldn’t get fed if they were is different spots of the nest box. After work I will check them again to make sure all are alive.

They’re 3 days old today. Yes I suppose that the warm weather is the reason. It’s been around 83 degrees the past couple of days.

Is it normal for there to be a bunch of kits (6) at the back of the nest box & (3) at the front of the box? They are 2 days old. & this happened for the past 2 days so far....all are warm & wiggling (actually flopping around). A couple seem skinny but they are very active.

Thank you. They’re 5 weeks & 2 days today & I think I gonna take out the 2 kits that will be sold to separate homes first. The cage is getting a bit crowded for them & mom seems to be kind of annoyed with them at this point already. Anything I should watch out for since I’m separating them?

Thank you
