No no change for Pro- they changed fibre 3 last winter down to a 15% I believe.. much too small for you or I. Pro so far hasn't changed but I've got a bad batch on my hands. Please watch yours. They are supposed to be calling back today after testing their sample.

Looks like everybody is doing OK- we may loose 3 more that I've tried everything with.. they may be too far gone I'm not sure. Went to corn free and high fiber with everybody else and they're doing wonderfully! I'm waitting to hear from Purina today- I think they'll be getting an earful! They...

Done done and done. First thing I ever do is grab the bleach bottle and go on attack mode.. lol! Just an FYI guys this seems to spread MUCH MUCH further than just me. I have word that many breeders in Ohio are having the same problem and have witnessed three other local breeders with the same...

Like I said, those rabbits and the ones around them have all been culled. This has developed into something else though. The Pasturella is not the root of the problem. What we've come to, without a doubt, by doing a couple atopsy's (yes, I can't spell today) is they are totally bound up! The...

Unfortunately I figured this out yesterday. I knew they were becoming stressed but the question was- what from? I took a look at the feed bag because some very young rabbits, just a week or two after being weaned were "bound up" and bloated. My feed has a very, very low crude fiber.. now this...

Alright, I've been doing this for 10 years and have NEVER had a problem like this one. I'd appreciate any and all help asap- please and thank you! Let me first explain- I run about 15 breeding New Zealand Does. Some are red, some are white. My whites never, ever have had a problem with...

O I have definately seen it I just wondered what everybody else was seeing. I overheard a certain somebody this past weekend saying that when they don't do Best 4 and Best 6 they (small breed breeder) have the BIS and Reserve sewn up and I though that was very rude.

I was just wondering if it seems to anybody else that the small or 'fancy' breeds win waaay more shows than the large commercial breeds? Any thoughts?

Sometimes my babies do this- I just call them lazy ears because normally when I touch them they straighten back out, then the 'relax' again. Usually I don't worry with the young ones.

Yes, that's exactly what I was looking at.. can you please tell me how entries and such go? I am clueless.

OK so I'm checking out the convention site and I can't see anything listed about catalogs, entry dates, entry fees and the like... has the entry date already passed?????? Somebody please help me out.. I've never been to a convention before.

The mini convention May 1&2 in Columbus, OH. Meat Rabbit Championships- taking a young Fryer.. then only whites to show in Open.

Just an FYI- I feed an 18% protein until around 6 months then I switch them to a 15%. I don't know much about Oxbow pellets though.

oooooo ok now I understand. Must've read the post wrong. We run into a lot where people go "you want THAT for a New Zealand?! I couldn understand if it were a Holland Lop...." lol.. that always getsme

"I saw the ad on CL, but to me $65 sounds like an awful lot of money for a NZ..lol" Actually, that is a fairly cheap price. Ours are $75 and up- most competitive ones you will find are atleast $100.
