Thanks for the information BunnyLady.:D This sounds exactly like my girl, her eyes are a brownish blue, maybe more blue than brown at this point with the really light points, and after reading your response I went and checked and she does have some very faint ticking through out her coat...

Okay, so a while ago (the babies are now 2 months old lol) I bred a pedigreed copper (these are full sized satins, copper is the chestnut and or castor color) to a pedigreed red. I double checked these guys and they have REW, Red, Copper, and black in their pedigrees 3 generations back. Out...

So this is my second litter of out this doe, she has produces pretty well although her first litter we had to help her along, making sure they were being fed for the first little bit. She is a full sized satin and we breed for meat, and when we have showables we sell them to other breeders...

I am in this situation now, we have a litter of satins, with only one in the color we are striving for (reds) but this girl is at least half the size of her siblings and has had a rough start. She has good color but her conformation isnt the best and since we breed for mostly meat, with the...

I work with a local Humane Society who spays/neuters all their rabbits, from the information I have gathered (not just from work but real life experience as well) Neutering can help some behavior issues, although it is not a guarantee. Right now in fact I have a young (under a year) neutered (i...

I breed and raise satins, they are pedigreed, and my buck is a wonderful typey REW. He was bred to a solid copper and a broken copper (lightly marked). We ended up with 10 total babies (after some DOAs,one disappeared, and one succumbed to the heat). This is what I got Solid Copper Litter...

I would say that yes, after three generations you can make your own pedigrees, technically all a pedigree is showing who the parents of said rabbit are, what breed they are and color, weight, ear number and birthday, however, you need to be as honest as possible on these pedigrees. The problem...

We finally had our first litter of satins, we were a bit unsure if she took, and since she was a day over due (not much I know, but I was anxious lol) we were a bit concerned as this is her first litter from an unproven buck. However momma did wonderful, had 11 babies (3 were DOA) in a...

So we have been preparing for this day for a while now, and finally decided to go ahead and butcher one of our meat mutt does who was not producing for us. This was our very first butcher ever and my husband and I think we did pretty good. Although it took us alot longer than we expected and...

So when I introduced myself we had been breeding and raising Mini Rex, however for the last couple of years always in the back of mine and my husbands mind has been the idea of meat rabbits. However I want to show and have purebreds so we felt we needed to do some research etc to see what breed...

Thanks every one for the replies! I am glad that I was able to get the color right and know that I was on the right track thinking it came from the bucks side. And thanks Bunnylady, I learned something new today about rabbit colors :D And I am glad to know that the Rews, and solid black may be...

Hello all, I am new here to the forum, but have been breeding, raising, showing mini rex rabbits for a couple of years (with a small break in the middle to to finances and stock issues) I just recently started up again and bought a wonderful little black and white mini rex doe, she was from a...

Hi from central kansas, I have a small rabbitry of mini rex, in blue, opal, chocolate and black, main goals are blues and opals. I have a "surprise" litter on the wire now that are about 3 wks old (momma was apparently bred to a mini lop when I bought her :/ ) and a couple of does due anyday...
