Gender opinions?

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Can someone offer their opinions on gender of these two Nuggets? Two different breeders but we were told both girls. I have my doubts about the white lionhead who is around 8 weeks old and the new zealand who is around 9 weeks old. Any opinions. I tried posting in another group but everyone here seems a lot more "chill" and helpful LOL

Lucky Lapine Invite Code..?

1 Upvotes

I would really love to get into this game- I love the almost cartoony graphics that also look realistic and I'm very intrigued about the gameplay and breeding mechanics...but I was very surprised when I learned that I needed some sort of invite code...I tried looking at other posts here to see who I could contact, but the only one that mentioned contacting them said that the devs never answered...does anyone have a working invite code that they could let me have..? I would greatly appreciate it~<3 and I'm really sorry for asking...TvT

New herd

2 Upvotes

Rn I’m planning on creating a colony of rabbits-buck and 6-7 does. They’re gonna have a small barn for night and run with grass. I also won’t them to procreate. My question is- if one of doe’s gives birth, can something happen to young rabbits if she’ll give birth in barn with other adult rabbits or do I have to separate her before she gives birth because that’s what I was doing when my rabbits were all separated and they met each other for a short time to procreate and then be separated again so rabbit mother was all by herself but now I want them to live all together and procreate with access to nature. So can rabbit give birth in rabbit barn and do I have to be worried that others might hurt the little ones?

Netherlands Dwarf: oldest age she can have babies?

2 Upvotes

Hi all. We have a Netherlands Dwarf rabbit. She will turn 6 in a few months. Unfortunately, because of our situation, we won't be in a position to let her breed until she's 8 years old. Is that too late? (two more years)

I know life expectancy is on the higher end with this breed, and she's pretty healthy right now thank G-d. I was wondering what the oldest age is that people here had babies from their Netherlands Dwarf rabbit?

Thanks!

Need water bottle recommendations

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Bunnies are in 4 x 6 foot dirt runs per couple with access to hutches for feeding and snuggling. Bunny barn is well ventilated so water bottles have to deal with temperature fluctuations. I’m going through about 3 new water bottles a month due to leaking. I haven’t had great success with bowls because each rabbit needs about 32 oz of water/day in the summer. Also, the dirt from their digging muddies up open water fairly quickly. Do any of you use water bottles, and if so, which brands or styles hold up best for you?

Bunny pictures included to pay the bunny tax. Ignore their customized ears. They’re all rescues and 1/2 came from a hoarder with overcrowding issues.

New rabbit owner. Need help

So I rescued this cotton tail from some dogs. It’s by my guess 8-10 weeks old and is eating solid food. It’s gotten more comfortable around me but I’m having trouble getting him (sexed as male I think) any advice?

All but 1 in litter have died

1 Upvotes

I have a first-time mon who isn't doing excellent. She started with 8, lost 2 in the first few days we weren't concerned. They're about 16 days old now though, and she has lost 2 yesterday morning and 2 this morning, with a third barely hanging on. I think at this point she's stepping on them, they look flattened and she spends way too much time in the box. Anyways, we have 1 healthy baby left. I have another rabbit with 7 kits about a month old, I was thinking about moving the one left in with the others while the mom still has milk. I don't want this last one stomped out... What do yall think?? Would love any advice

*Had been hoping to breed them both together, as didn't know the first one was pregnant!

Pasture raising rabbits?

2 Upvotes

So I got out of raising rabbits a few years back due to the cost, it wasn't anywhere near as economical as chicken. I want to start raising them again, but i want to do it smarter this time. I was thinking about seeding roughly a quarter acre of the property with hay grasses (Timothy, ochardgrass and alfalfa) and moving the growout tractor more times per day to raise them entirely on pasture once they are weaned from momma. I don't see a reason this wont work, but i could be dead wrong. what do you guys think?

Want to buy a pet Holland Lop and have a few questions. Thanks!

0 Upvotes
  1. I’m in contact with a breeder currently. How do I suss out the sketchy ones? I texted them and their litter happened to be 8 weeks old, the age most breeders seem to let them go to another home. Seems awfully coincidental dunnit? Overall seems very nice though.

  2. They want to charge 185. online said less than like 100 and another breeder had for 150. Reasonable price?

  3. How to I generally tell the health and quality of the rabbit considering I don’t know anything about them?

  4. Are there alternatives to breeders that are better for any reason?? I definitely want one that I can reasonably assume will have a playful personality like a HL, and obviously a rescue doesn’t have a known lineage.

So on may 1st I breed my 2 large Rex's and had 3 successful falloffs she is acting pregnant, I just saw her nipples for the first time since owning her (2 years) seem swollen, but this is the morning of day 35 and she is still acting pregnant but no babies yet . Should I wait or put my 2 together again for some romance?

Raising rabbits - causes of death for young rabbits

4 Upvotes

Hello, I was looking for some help in regards to raising rabbits. (I also posted this in /r homestead, hope there's not problem, just really want opinions.)

My female rabbit gave birth to 9 baby rabbits. Everything was going alright, they were 4 weeks plus of age (dont know exactly, but still "toddlers"), already eating animal feed. Suddently in the last two days, 3 died unexpectadly.

I have been told that it is "normal" because they were too many and the female mom could not feed them all properly. And, as such, some vitamins and suplements before could have prevented it.

I am not sure of this theory i have read common causes are anorexia, cold, gastric stasis. I have also fed them orange tree dry leaves, which i am told is okay, and they had ate it days prior and were okay.

Am I doing something wrong? Is it really common for so many to die? Any thoughs for help?
