I use heated water bottles all winter. I got them from my local Agway in Connecticut and I think they cost $15 a piece. It's a little expensive but at least my bunnies have water
It's not a big deal that she only had one baby, I had one doe that every time I would breed her she would only have one baby. So it's nothing to worry about, she may have more next time or she may be like my doe that only ever has one.
They're definitely mini rex, my babies look just like that right now and I know for sure that mine are purebreds. They'll grow out of that goofy coat and because it looks so goofy now, they'll probably end up with really nice, dense coats
I like when DQ is out running around our apartment and I open the fridge and she comes running. She knows she gets something whenever the fridge opens. My roommates can't believe that when I tell her to get back in her cage she runs into my room and hops in her cage
Ok I wasn't sure about that because getting the horse bedding is easier than the stove pellets because people start going crazy as soon as the weather gets chilly and they buy out all the stove pellets
Pelleted horse bedding works really well and cuts down on the smell. It's pretty much the same thing as the stove pellets but it's only pine. There's also some sprays that you can buy to spray the cage bottoms with before putting new bedding down that's supposed to help. I found it at walmart...
To be a good broken the judges are looking for 50/50 color but my lightly marked mini rex did well on the table. They also need to have color on both sides of the nose and no white on the ears. Sometimes the judges will let the white on the ears go, but it's really not supposed to be there...
I laugh about it now that I know she had them and they're all doing ok. But they still don't make much noise, I still can't even tell that they're there. And she is being a great mom, she's definitely protective over them. I have to give her snacks to distract her so I don't lose my arm.
