Well yesterday 2 of my does had baby bunnies, now just have to wait and see if they survive. This will be the first surviving litters out of these rabbits. Like I previously said things on our farm are not doing very well.:th Almost 5 months into this year, I keep hoping that things turn...
Well, I'm sorry that it has been so long again since I have last posted anything. Life has its way of changing things and keeping us busy. We have cut down our sheep numbers and are looking into buying a few (3-4) starter bottle calves. I was raised on a dairy farm and miss them. Dairy is shut...
My female dog Daisey will be a year old next month, she had her puppy heat a while back before we got Duke. She may have gotten bred by a neighbors dog. We tried to keep her put up but like most dogs she likes to go down to our creek to swim. The issue I am having is she now has what looks like...
Yes I agree. He has a few issues that we have to deal with, but hopefully we can figure it out. I think we made a mistake when we first got him though. We got on to our other dog Daisey when she wouldn't share the food bucket she uses, now he (Duke) guards the bucket and won't let Daisey eat...

Our little farm is...

Usually I put some straw in there box and the doe does what she wants, sometimes they push all the bedding out(before they are born) and only wants her hair as bedding . Once they have kits I don't mess with the bedding. My Does are good mommas that I have now, have had at least one litter.
I have had does do some interesting things. I have seen them have their babies outside their box and then the mothers move them into the box later. I seen a doe push her baby out of the box and then I put it back and her push it out again. I do not have a clue why they do this. But it does...
Thank you for this information. I guess I always thought of it different. We will probably not keep the two smallest ones on account of possible future problems.
