Yes and no. I tried but I never was any good at it. At my age :old you would think I'd have it figured out. But the other doe that is due also is in her box this afternoon, pulling hair and making small grunting noises. This is day 30 for her. I hope the heat and humidity don't upset her to...

No.... thankfully we're still waiting. I was afraid that she would. And the fireworks was terrible, even in the country. So still waiting on two... the other hasn't done anything yet...31 days Saturday. :fl:pop

Thanks for the advice and encouragement. Will post updates:fl

Sure hope it's not. And I bred morning and evening, supervised. And I put date and time on calendar.:(

Nest boxes not supposed to go in until this next week, July 4&5. One doe was scratching her floor then filled her food dish with hair. DH put boxes in hutch. Are they just messing with me? Isnt being born a week early bad?

We have bought horses that way also. Some of the best riding horses we ever had. So sad to know where they would have ended up.

Thank you for your kind words and welcomes. :) Yes, I migrated from BYC but we also are raising rabbits for meat. Not sure what she was getting by the pound. Most prices seemed to be less that $10 per rabbit after the weighing was done. Most of the folks in our area that sell meat...

Was at a flea market and there was a lady selling the most adorable mini rabbits BY THE POUND.:ep Had her scales set up and whichever you picked she would weigh and give you price. Not by age or breed. Is this normal? They were some of the cutest, tiniest, smashed-face things I'd ever seen.

Back to work. Weather is Beautiful. What's wrong with that picture?

That is good information. I don't have any experience with the smaller rabbits, or breeding for certain colors. I do realize that he is not considered a dwarf. The only thing my husband and I have ever had previous is meat-type rabbits. And though there are many meat rabbits around where I live...

I found a buck... friend found him and picked him up. Marked mostly like a Dutch, goes about 5#. Has one brown eye and one blue eye. Wouldn't have been my first choice, but then I read several threads about them making a good meat cross. Bred him yesterday.. he knew what to do;)

Thank you for the advice. Clover (the ES) is right at the weight you mentioned. The Californian doe I have is heavier and the other two are heavier yet. I will post pics asap. When I haven't been working, it's been raining. Finding a service age buck is proving to be difficult. Lots around of...

So glad holiday is over.

Definitely meat for us. If someone wants a pet, that's great. But ours will go to freezer camp.

My does are here! Received 4 gorgeous does from a wonderful older gentleman. They are all different; a American Blue, a Californian, a Black Flemish Giant and a English Spot. Now to find "Mr. Right." The man's buck was killed by his own dog, and he decided it was time to get out of the...

It's a holiday weekend- i'm at work-what more could a person want?

Hi to all! I'm on Backyard Chickens as 'hensareus' but joined this forum while it was down. And I like it just as much. I am semi-retired and at the moment have chickens and ducks. My husband and I hope to have rabbits and a feeder pig soon, also. I love getting to talk with other people and...

X3!:clap
