We're in SE Oklahoma. We're already hitting mid to high 80's and it doesn't slow down from here. But, my Mother-in-law lives in KY and she's already lost one sow to the heat because they are hotter than we are, which is extremely abnormal. Crazy weather!
Thank you @Samantha drawz. You have a pretty good setup. It will definitely take a while for us to get that far along, but if my daughter has her way we'll get there. :) Awww.... I like your little cages/runs @LukeMeister. Those look pretty easy to put together and move. My husband would...

Saturday we were given a very unexpected gift of two rabbits by a friend. We have raised pretty much everything under the sun.... except rabbits. They are both bucks, which we were told have been together for a while and get along good. They are set up in an old chicken coop right now, but we...
Hello, BYH. I was already a member of BYC and TEG, but just acquired (given to us very unexpectedly, but we aren't one to turn down an opportunity) two rabbits over the weekend and will definitely need some help in this area. Bio: My family and I (husband, 13 y/o son, 8 y/o daughter, and 2 y/o...
