    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    Ok good I did put her back in and got three more fall off now I’ll just wait and see. :weee:celebrateI’m a little bummed they won’t be full bred satins but I have plenty of time to figure that out. I’m just glad I’ll be able to start learning the other parts of being a breeder. And excited to...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    Hey @AmberLops and everyone else that breeds rabbits. Do you put your doe back in with the buck in an hour or two after successful fall offs? I can’t remember who all breeds rabbits so don’t be offended if I didn’t tag everyone. Ambers name is a give away lol.

    Trying to breed the first time.

    Sorry just saw your reply. No neither doe would lift for my buck. I just got a new buck. It’s a rex not satin like my other rabbits. But for me raising to learn and for meat I don’t mind a mix breed the first few litters. I would like to breed pedigree and show quality eventually. I had no...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    So great news!!! My blue satin bred with the new white rex! I witnessed five fall offs! Then left them together for about 20 minutes. I’m so excited! Now everything I’ve research the last two years has vanished from my brain lol. Should I put her back in tomorrow? Or is she good? I don’t want to...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    So the gentleman I met at the rabbit show sold me a couple of different Rex rabbits to try and breed with my does. He said if they don’t work for me I can switch them out until we find some to work. He’s super cool guy and has been breeding rabbits for 50 years!! What a great resource I can’t...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    I actually didn’t plan to raise satins, I wanted Rex or a heritage breed like the silver fox. But satins are what I found in the area. I liked the fact that they were pedigreed so I would be starting out with decent bloodlines too. I was actually zero percent interested in anything but meat and...

    I’m all for collective bargaining they just need to go to the table. Hahaha hopefully they’ll decide what to do soon. I’m not one to cross a picket line....but you know what happens to a rabbit that doesn’t want to work in a breeding program? Freezer camp

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    Yeah it was definitely worth my time to go. I wish now I would’ve entered my satins into the show. They are beautiful blues and blue otters and there was only three satins in the whole place so they had a real shot at winning which looks good on the paper work if nothing else. The older...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    When to the rabbit show this morning. Never been to one and wanted to see how it all works in case I wanted to show some of my future rabbits. I was also hoping to find another buck or possibly a doe for my herd. No luck on finding a new rabbit but I learned a lot, and talking to other breeders...

    Yeah I need a rabbit whisperer lol. I think they’re confused how it works. I think I’m gonna pick up a proven buck if I can find one at the rabbit show. Maybe once they have an older man my young buck will get a chance :)

    Coffee anyone ?

    Snowy and cold this morning! It was a bit of a surprise we were at 69 degrees yesterday, weather guessers said we would get some rain today and possibly turn to snow tonight. There’s 4 inches in the ground and it’s still coming down. Ugh Montana weather, don’t like it wait a minute.

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    The kids will put theirs in their rooms, we have three really nice ones from a couple years ago that we hang on the walls. They're still packed from moving or I’d post pictures of those one. It cost me about $100 to have them done professionally so I thought I’d try to do these ones myself. The...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    Yep hahaha. There was drive by shooting that we heard a couple blocks from us in the middle of the day! Crazy to me. We were in groups so I don’t think we were ever in any sort of immediate danger plus I’m 6’4” viking looking dude and the guy with me is a body builder so I hope we looked...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    Quick up date. I haven’t been on for a spell. Not much new, the cats are kicking but on the rodents I haven’t seen one in weeks! They’re fun to have around too. The rabbits still haven’t breed yet although I keep trying. I’m going to a rabbit show next month. I might pick up a proven buck or...

    MtViking- A little piece of paradise.

    This is my first year with the tractor, my tires are almost 6ft tall lol I don’t know how much a set of chains would cost me, but more than I probably want to spend. The tires are weighted I believe they are 1500lbs if I remember right, so I think I will probably be ok. I driven 2x4 cars and...
