Makes sense. Thanks again, Nathan. Patty ... they are old enough to breed for fryers, ... inbreeding, but this really isnt a problem, just cull any bad ...
Hi, I just signed up for this group because someone was kind enough to direct me to you because of my question I posted to my regular rabbit groups.... Hi...
I have heard of colonies for pets, but they work a little differently than breeding colonies. For one thing, there are no bucks. But the main thing is that you...
You may want to consider spaying them. Also, at one point i had 2 rabbits as pets (unspayed) and added a thrid after a few months.... it wasn't pretty! Lots...
I don't know how many, but I heard their little squeaks this morning when the doe came out of the den. How long now before I'll see them? Three or four weeks?...
Oh my, I've never heard them... how interesting! You should see them in about 2-3 weeks. Check around the colony to make sure mom didn't accidently birth...
... them in ... accidently ... mom will ... ******************************* Hi Linda: Yes, there were little squeaky sounds - hope that didn't mean one in ...
Well I don't know about when they're in burrows, but one time, the only way I knew my rabbit had had her litter was the sqeaking! They were covered so well, I...
... only way I knew my rabbit had had her litter was the sqeaking! They were covered so well, I couldn't see anything! ... ******************** Hi Emma, Oh...
I decided to "play God" and bond two of my pet rabbits, Haley and Doodles. My plan went as follows: 1. Make doodles hutch so he can live within Haley's run. 2....
Since one or both are neutered, I imagine the reduction of hormones helps the process for you. Just give some "2 exit" areas for a rabbit to run away from the...
Doodles is neutered... and very mild mannered. I found one tiny tuft of fur but nothing else. Neither is letting me get close enough to really check them out....
Ok, so my rabbits obviously have an organized burrowing committee or something. This AM I go out to make sure they have food and water before going out to...
Jeez, tough luck! I never was crazy about the idea of burrowing anyway... hmmm. I would lay wire underneath all the kennels. A big pain but I don't see what...
all you really would have to do is take a trencher, lots of hardware stores rent them, and go around the perimiter of your inclosures, put fencing down in...
when you can fill in the tunnel and holes with rock, the cheapest or free est you can find. something heavy and rough like drainage rock, or broken up...
You may be right. I can't think of any other way... wonder how long the wire will last? a year? two? Linda M. www.YankeeKennels.com Lebanon, OR ... From:...
Unfortunately, when the roof caved in it was larger than 12" or 16" so any paver would have simply fallen in like the first set of rocks I put there and they...
I'm thinking that chain link fencing ought to keep adults where you want them ( the babies can't burrow very well and will want to stay with mama anyway ), and...
I have .5"x.5" wire in one run, on the ground, and it's lasted... since early 2003... and shows no sign of wear. It's a 4x8' run with only two rabbits but it's...
it depends on what your soil is like, and how it reacts to the wire when it rains, i would get something heavy duity like chainlink or something if you want...
Yeah, I thought they would be small too, but picture 2 tunnels coming together in a Y. Rather big and long. Which, even if they burrow only in the kennel,...
did you get the Matrix problems figured out? everyone in their right burrow? how is everyones Colonys commeing along? its been awfully quite in here...
Well, nothing like the downpours only Oregon can deliver to stop everyone from digging to China. You should see them, shaking their paws, "oh! oh! wet dirt,...
i think cutting back on the number of breeding does in each enclosure would help, how many do you have in them now? i think three does is plenty in a run...
... Well, as for me, a month or so ago, I heard the squeaks of babies and found one dead newborn that had been pulled out of the holes, but none have appeared...
