This is Floppy...has the prettiest sky-blue eyes..not seen in photo, of course.
@Bunnylady , yes, I'm sure she is a mix....her dam colored like a Cali, but flop ears. Siblings had flop ears also, but they were colored (spotted b/w, black solid). Sire black, not sure about ears. My NZW buck came...
I have a BEW lop doe, currently 4 months old and 4.5 pounds. Buck is NZW, currently 5 months old and 5.5 pounds. Only producing meat stock. When old enough...is the size difference too much? I know that the NZW will be 10#+-. And is there a lethal white gene such as in dogs and horses?
I had this same thing happen recently. Rebreeding a first time doe that had lost her litter. But the one time was very vigorous.. he hung on and pulled her over with him.
When they are sitting in their cage just look underneath. That's what I did with the one in my avatar. He's relaxed and dropped... it'll look like he sat in bubble gum:).
Bred my Cali doe with my VM buck 26 days ago. She is 2ish and he was 6 months. The morning breed went fine. He mounted successfully 3 times in about 10-15 minutes. Same day that evening, when I put her back in cage, she wanted NO part of him. Oh, she wanted a part, but with teeth bared! I...
My Californian doe is past 2 weeks... I'm not by my calendar, but I think her 27th day is on the 21st. Would it be possible to palpate her now for practice? Even if she's still open, I won't rebreed til it gets cooler.... we have 105° heat index yesterday and today. The rest of July isn't...
Well..sad to say no bunnies this time.:hitDay 35 for one doe and 33 on the other. And now the weather is crazy HOT! Going to look for a older/bigger buck this weekend and wait for the temperature to drop.
Bunny update...no bunnies. Yesterday was day 31 for "Blu" and she stopped doing anything, except for looking at my husband and I like we're the crazy ones.o_O But we will wait a few more days.:pop Day 31 for my spotted doe is tomorrow. :fl And my Californian doe is due closer to the end of the...
Thank you for the link. I read it and it does seem easy. And I've seen my dad do it many times when he was alive. And he always seemed to know how many bunnies there were going to be. I'll have to practice before I breed again. My does are gentle, maybe they won't complain to much.
The father...
