    Doe won't regulate grain- gets ill and overweight

    I'll do some searching and try and find the plain pellets. There doesn't seem to be a tremendous amount of selection here for rabbit pellets though the feed store might be able to custom order. What I have been told is that because of public criticism the SPCA very rigidly enforces the rule...

    Doe won't regulate grain- gets ill and overweight

    I absolutely only meant at a show! So given that she doesn't receive pellets the rest of the time I'm worrying about things like stasis and bloat. None of the rabbits are free-fed at home.

    Hiya from Canada!

    I'm looking for a source of online information from other rabbits owners. We currently own 2 New Zealand White does, 1 buck, and 1 New Zealand Red doe. We're an active 4-H family and live on a small farm. I'll try and get some pictures of our rabbits up soon :-)

    Bass Complete Doors- do they work?

    We're building new cages for our New Zealands and found Bass Equipment complete doors online. From the description it sounds like they would eliminate the need to line the door and build one from scratch. Has anyone used them to build their own cage before? Are they what you were hoping they...
