    Conditioning and keeping weight on lionhead show rabbits

    Hi y'all! So I've been raising rabbits for 15 years (minirex) and they were so easy to care for I have unlimited hay and pretty much food and everything was great I never had any issues. This year I decided to start raising lionheads and oh boy I'm going through trouble! I have 3 juniors and a...

    2 days to go- no sign she's getting ready

    Every doe is an individual some are so compulsive to nest immediately when the nestbox in put in and some couldn't care less until they realize they have to. I almost never see fur being pulled until they are ready to have them. It's so hard to be patient and wait :)

    Normal Behaviour???

    Haha yes totally normal. My does will do anything to get a bucks attention if they want to be bred. I love to watch them run and jump

    Seven week old bunny with a weepy eye

    Sudden death-Kits 3-4 weeks old separate litters at separate times

    I would take a good look at what pellets you are feeding enteroexemia due to ingredients in their feed could be it. Next time u find diarrhea pull their pellets and give a big handful of hay to calm their gut down for a day or so then give it back they don't seem to be agreeing with the food...

    2 week old bunny, can't walk

    That's totally understandable! I feel the same way I'm a fixer not a killer, unless we're hunting then that's a different story. Your not doing anything wrong! Just Mother Nature keeping the rabbit population down. I get nervous when it comes to litters and one looking off that did sound...

    Seven week old bunny with a weepy eye

    Oh good!!! Yes sounds like an eye infection probably from nest box she should be fine!

    Seven week old bunny with a weepy eye

    Any chance this isn't weepy eye and maybe just a case of nestbox eye? If so I'd give terramycin a try before more expensive options

    What will my babies look like?

    Just want to clarify I have bred black and orange tris for years and have gotten perfectly healthy Charlie's and harlis so don't let that discourage you with breeding brokens! It's merely something that has been known to happen more with them kind of like seizures and BEW/Vienna rabbits

    What will my babies look like?

    Hi I cannot make a totally accurate assumption without seeing pedigrees but I've raised minirex for 15 years so i can give what assumption I believe will happen. You will definitely get broken from Elsa depending on what else she carries as for your other doe Anna you will probably get broken...

    Mysteriously Bred Doe- Can this happen?

    I've had someone say the same thing tho however I have to admit it sounds alittle far fetched I always believed the daughter who was 12 at the time roughly put the rabbits in together to breed them and never told her mom (who believed it was an accident) but that's just me

    Help me identify my rabbits?

    Hi! I raise lionheads and I can say that there is a good chance these guys carry lionhead, when someone crosses a lionhead to another breed it makes the mane basicly lesser and lesser with every cross breeding. People think if I have a fluffy lionhead and breed it to say a Rex that I will get...
