Hahahaha!!! Who can resist goats? Unfortunatley we don't have room for goaties, or I'd deff have some. I have to get my fix visiting the ones near the local servo & feeding them the odd carrot, but their fave is potato chips purchased from the shop lol
Omg, I LOVE my bunnies. They are the most cutest, fluffiest, cuddliest little things ever. I'd be getting bunnies regardless of hubby's negativity. He'll come round ;)
There's no money to be made in rabbits. you don't make money showing them, they cost money in their care, maintenance, breeding, travelling etc. A lot can go wrong with the kits or with the rabbits becoming ill suddenly. Not quite sure what the top going rate for a pet bunny is in the US, but...
I own dwarf Lops, but I am very interested in owning an Angora. I am wanting to find out about the breed first however.
How big do they get?
What is their personality & characteristics like?
Does anyone shave their Angora?
I live in Australia, so how do you manage with keeping them cool in the...
Here's another of Lolly & her sister Flopsy taking a nap. lazy bunnies......
In my profile pic is Marley, he unfortunately passed away recently. he suddenly just got ill out of the blue with 'Flopsy" (An unexplained problem where are rabbit goes all floppy as if it is paralysed)
I also have a...
Howdy! We have an indoor "bunny couch" & this is the couch where our buns can hop about, sleep etc. This is because Lops ( or at least mine) Don't seem interested in hopping about the house & won't use a litter tray as they never get off the couch! SOOOOOOO to save my proper couch, we have the...
My rabbits are outdoors & I do use litter trays in their hutches. I find it is a lot easier this way to keep their hutches clean.
I use a small tray & I use pine bark shavings. I don't change it daily, as there is no need. I only change it when it starts to get too full, probably 1-2 times a...
Freezing water bottles, always ensure they have plenty of water & bring them indoors on extremely hot days if possible. It's just not worth the stress. if you cannot, try using a fan.
Thanks for the welcome animalmom. :)
We get Tiger snakes & Dugites here in the summer & because we live rural, it's even more of an issue. it is something I will have to take into consideration this summertime with the rabbit hutches. I will need to ensure all are covered in snake proof wire. We...
Hi, what do you need to know?
I am guessing you know about their diet already? Rabbits diets consist of 80% hay, 5% pellets & 10% vegies.
At about 5-6 months, you may wish to consider having her spayed as females reach maturity at that age & can become hutch aggressive because they want to have...
