Hello list, I recently did a short experiment with tractoring rabbits, and WOW was I impressed! I buy rabbits from a supplier some 60+ miles away for my raw ...
Hi, Nicole. I can't say anything about colony raising or tractoring, though I lurk on this list because I am interested in trying it one day. I *have* had a...
Hey Nicole you have thought this out. That's a good point about the color white being more of a target for predation, but a chicken tractor would protect...

Nicole, I hope I can take a stab at your questions...I've always weaned my guys a little LATE, but rabbits can be weaned anywhere from 4 to 10 weeks of...
I haven't been at this very long so I can't attest to the long term benefits of tractoring rabbits but I have kept some Californians in a 3x7 tractor that is...
Those snakes will also eat any baby rabbits or chicks that you may have. So I suggest the snakes go. I don't know an answer to the mice problem. I am dealing...
Thank you, Karen and Laura! I've learned quite a bit by reading this list, and by dealing with lots and lots of rabbits who've had their lives removed... but I...
I'm in a big ol' rush right now but our Maremma know that their world will cave in on them if they leave the farm. Period. We put a hot wire at the top of...

... Hi, We are building a bunny tractor for our Angora, we wondered how we would use the 2x4 welded on the floor and not have problems with hurting his legs or...
Either have someone else carry and move and then set down gently enough to let rabbits find their footing or drag on ground using wooden skids that are part of...
Laura, Did you clip the wings on both sides? I have heard that the trick is to clip only on one side, so as the flap, they can't get the same amount of lift...
I use a garden hoe. If they try and run past, I can shove it under them or in front of them, and spin them around. I can also use it to pin them, or goose...
We clipped on one side only and then the ones that got out we clipped the other side too. Before long every wing had a bob. Chicken tractors are the best. We...
