So much envy, LOL! ;) Tans are gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous!

Thank you, Grace! :) I've been doing my best to learn...but some of it makes no sense. Like the "Color Saturation" locus, I just can't find anything to tell me how the incomplete/co-dominant Chinchilla colors work, if they express with each other or only themselves, and the ranking of dominance...

Unsure how to reply without being confusing so I'm replying in parts, lol! RE: Emily, I know, thank you. :) I've walked many cats, a few rats, and the occasional guinea pig, and know that animals other than dogs don't walk with you, you walk with them. And that the trick to getting them used...

I was eyeballing the harnesses at work yesterday...I have a bun who bounces around all the time, and I think he'd like to go bounce around my yard (SUPERVISED OF COURSE!) but alas, the specifically-for-rabbits harnesses look...questionable at best. This guy is a big, strong fellow...and they...

Congrats, sounds awesome! :) Sorry to hear about the issue of coat though, but still, that's some really positive feedback! :)

One of my new Mini Rexes isn't eating as much as my other buns. She's four months old and is eating a fair bit of hay, but never finishes all her daily pellet ration. I was just checking on my buns, and my two-month-old Mini Rex is chowing down on more food than the four-monther. Is this...

We deal with winterkill on a property I hunt at, and I'd like to suggest that the rabbits likely starved, not froze. Cold isn't tough on rabbits unless it gets absurdly cold...but the lack of food will kill them swiftly. We always see a lot of winterkilled deer and rabbits and all manner of...

I think my only fear would be if a loose bun managed to get behind my pedals. Gods forbid I crush a bunny trying to avoid an accident! :(

He plows through more hay than any other rabbit I've got and he eats his pellets like it's going out of style. :D I just wasn't sure if it was going to harm him to let him be picky. :)

So cute!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh man, if I can get my buns some harnesses and leashes...we'd go walksies. There will be pictures if we do. :)

The comforter we used wasn't in great shape, but I was always shocked at how much heat it retained inside it. Sometimes, with my brother's biggest does, I'd find that their water wasn't even totally frozen in the morning, meaning the ambient temperature had to've been high, compared to the bare...

Okay, so...what if he never does? :) I mean, will it hurt him to not eat fresh stuff if he never will? He's in better body condition than his littermate, who is okay with fresh stuff, so thus far he seems no worse for wear... ...I just don't want to harm him or deprive him nutritionally...

Right now I have two intact males who are totally bonded...they adore each other. I call 'em the "twins" since they are identical, too. :) Neither one is getting neutered, and unless they have a future issue, they won't be separated. Sounds like your boys are probably ok, though I'd still be...

I really like my New Zealands. :) They seem to be easygoing, really "good doers," very undemanding in terms of upkeep. I can't say this for the whole breed, only my own limited experience, but they seem really good-natured and very sweet. I've been trying to lay hands on some Californians with...

I live in western Michigan, it IS getting cold out. I won't worry about my buns as they're living in the basement, but I can recall dealing with winter and bunnies when I was basically taking care of my brother's rabbits. On the coldest of days or the chilliest nights, I'd take an old beat-up...

I have a few rabbits, and I've noticed that one in particular will not eat anything fresh. No veggies, no fruits, nothing. He's madly in love with pellets...like, the instant I give him his daily ration of pellets, he's got his face buried into the feeder, and looks just happy as can be. And...

I've been trying to use this link, it keeps saying 404 file not found...not sure if it's just me or if the site has moved/shut down/et cetera. Sorry!

"You didnt get no pedigree's with them?" Of course not. Jameson and Dempsey are technically Mini Rex crosses. They aren't purebred and as such, no pedigrees. They were bought to improve my own line of rabbits, in color and coat quality. :) I do have pedigrees and paperwork for both the...

Ah, OK! Thanks! :) The breeder of the two Rexes told me they were Tortoishell, I don't honestly know enough about colors to know the difference. :) I've tried looking at a few color genetics sites for rabbits (I'm a whiz when it comes to horses, but rabbits and their colors confuse me) and...

FINALLY managed to get pictures of some of my rabbit-kids online. :) Wanted to ask...my two other Torts are very clearly black-and-orange in appearance, but the new baby is distinctly blue-and-orange. Is it just a fluke of her color or is she some kind of dilute? Here she is...
