Ugh! I got nothing from either doe :barnie Im really not sure if I want to breed again now and have littles during the really cold months or wait until Feb or March. Problem is, Im afraid I may miss my window of trying to stick to the cooler months for breeding. Again :hide

What would be an “average” price for a LGD? I have a five year plan to get our current place sold and moved onto a few acres. I know next to nothing about LGDs. I plan on having some goats and/or sheep and fowl. Keeping up with chickens and my rabbitry and plan on adding turkeys and ducks, at...

I am SO glad and Relieved at the consistency of molt being the issue! 🥰 Ive had rexes and dutch and never noticed this with them. I also wanted to do Flemish at first, but it didn’t really work out. I just couldnt figure out where exactly to put them. Once I get a barn or at least a large shed...

Thanks for the info! I will def post pics

No, he’s my buddy and only buck right now. If it turns out hes actually mixed then I will retire him but keep him. Maybe have a house bunny 😂 What about you? Are yours pets or do you sell?

Someone replied to my BYC thread and linked to a BYH thread, lol https://www.backyardherds.com/threads/why-is-my-black-rabbits-fur-turning-brown.33508/ Its pretty short and informative

I recently started to notice that my American Blue buck has reddish brown patches on his sides. The fur also has a different feel to it. This is new for him and I have had him for over a year. I noticed it a couple of months ago and thought it may go away with shedding, but it hasnt. He also...

I’m looking to add a purebred pedigreed American Blue buck to my herd. Please either reply to this post or PM me.

Just sold the last :bunny:bunny from this litter:celebrate Hopefully both my does are due in a few days :fl:fl I cannot find any nest boxes I guess i could use cardboard boxes? Id rather not but have heard others doing so.

Thanks! Yes, the two does are side by side. There is always a bit of a gap between my cages so unless he is incredibly well endowed Im not concerned 🤣🤣 I have heard those stories too and would be very interested in their cage setup, etc.

Got Maggie in with Spyro too. Phew! That one went a little better. She didn't put up nearly the fight Zelda did. He had one fall off, but a couple of times he stayed on but was limp. It was funny 🤣. Unless that is a bad thing? :hide Ive never had two does bred at the same time. Is it okay if...

:bunnyThey showed up!:bunny And I got Zelda bred again 🤞🤞. Poor dude though 🤦🏻‍♀️ He had one fall off finally. He was going at her at every angle 😂 Youd think it was his first time ever. Hopefully he’ll be a bit better with my other doe tonight. I want to breed both at the same time since...

Bay, I am SO sorry for your loss and so amazed at your strength

:woot Sold two more babies! They're 7 mos, but I still call them babies. Now, hopefully the buyer will show today :fl I have no reason to think they won’t, just being realistic. Hopefully hubs will let me breed both my does now 🙄🙄 I dont think he understands how a rabbitry works 🤣

Someone on BYC said its his scent glands. Just proof you always learn something new everyday. I didnt know they had scent glands down there or that they excrete a waxy substance like earwax.

No damage at all, not even minor. It was on both sides. It seemed as if it could be crystalized urine?? Think nasty toilet, thats what it reminded me of. Sorry for that image 😂. They havent been together. I saw the babies had similar gunk when they were little, but never thought an older rabbit...

I was doing a well check on my buck (American Blue, 1yr 4mos old) and he has a large amount of build up next to his penis. Nothing by his testicles and the penis and testicles all look good, no signs of inflammation. Picture of build up included. I cleane dit up with baby wipes and then put...

I definitely plan on it now that work has slowed down somewhat. The setup you’re describing is what I imagined a livestock auction for smaller animals would be like. I reread that passage about four times just to make sure i didn't misread anything 🤷🏻‍♀️ Edit: The passage on the auctions website.

Ive never lived anywhere else as an adult while owning any type of livestock, but this makes zero sense to me, too. I dont know what the deal is.

Unfortunately, I would be breaking my city’s laws if I did. And I don’t have any space at all in the house/garage. My Plan B was selling at the fair, livestock auction, and a mentor from BYC. The fair was a no go for me this year due to insane workload; my mentor is MIA, I havent seen her on BYC...
