I'm reletivly new to this breed but she looks pregnant. If you want you can place your palm under her belly and feel her without exerting pressure. If you get her to lay on your hand that would work too.

I have one other doe I've tried already and she wasn't pleased with the kits in her nestbox, I'm trying again. I've never had good success with bottle feeding but I'll give that a go again. She's been cage switched twice (yesterday too) and she has always had a litter box. I switched that...

I'm dealing with this exact thing!!! My die killed some of her kits by peeing in the nestbox none stop. She too held her kits in longer and went in her nestbox before they were there. The problem might be she feels there is no place for them to be born since she chose the nestbox for the bathroom.

Two of the best colored kits are RIP. There are so many colors in this litter and I was really hoping to watch these two in particular. Maybe a broken orange and a broken blue? I cant tell this young but it was fascinating since there are black and agouti otters, rews and a few mystery color...

Yeah I'm liking Sun Glow or something to do with warm colors or the sky if I am going to go ariona themed. Wow I can't imagine having a rabbitry so young! Oh man the cog wheels keep turning. Haha

Ive replaced one of my does nest box material SIX times. Her litter is about 4 days old. Today I came home with the entire nest box soaked to the brim, the kits were cold and five are probably going to die. I don't understand this! I tried putting in another box with litter and hay, I tried...

Id say wait a bit, house them next to bucks for a few weeks. Maybe try a table spoon or more of apple cider vinegar in their water bottles. If they hit 8 months and still no breeding Id check for health issues or hold them.

That's great advice. I have a few colors I prefer with brown based genes. BEW too of course. My name is hard to pronounce and my last name has a bad word in it and it's often pronounced that way because of it. Lol phone spam is the worst! I guess I can play with a name and change it but that...

They aren't terrible thankfully. Is there a breeder near you or a judge who can show you how to clip?

I like the name Sun Glow Rabbitry since in az we have great sunny glows haha. I like a few other name involving Nikola tesla or somehow inputing his works into the name and design.

How did you think of your rabbitry name? I don't have one but Im trying to reg. with ARBA and breed groups. I'm itching to code a website again but I can't reg. a domain till i think of one. It's so frustrating!!! How did you think of yours?
