Could the baby be a peanut?? Check it's teeth. Usually a long lived peanut has bad teeth as well as the characteristic domed head. I had a peanut live until it was 8 weeks old but she couldn't hold on anymore. Their digestive systems just don't work properly. Roger L

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GYPSY!!!!!!!!:) 29 THIS YEAR;) Roger L

I have a small mini-rex doe that was prone to fetal giants. It didn't matter which buck she was bred too. I solved the problem by carefully monitoring herpellet intake, actually cutting her pellets back some and giving her free choice hay for her entire pregnancy. She has never lost weight...

Wow, this is a tough one! I am voting for ingesting as well. From what you said he is eating there probably wouldn't be alot of fecal matter anyway. Good luck on this one, sounds like you are going to need it! Roger L

I solved the flying crock problems by taking a small C-clamp and a thin piece of wood and attaching it to the side of the cage. Just put the wood on the outside of the cage so the clamp has something to brace against and clamp the bowl in place. The other option is EZ crocks. They are...

When I get a new rabbit and it doesn't come with food I mix alot of oatmeal in with a 1/4 cup of pellets to start and work my way up to all pellets over the course of a week. I also give them free choice hay. It works well for me and I have not had any problems with them getting sick. Roger L

Congrats on the babies. They are adorable. They should all be chocolate, maybe with the possibility of black from their daddy, his sire was broken black and his dam was black. They should be winners when you show them. Their father and all grandparents were grand champions. Their mother...

Kim You will do fine! The shows are not that complicated. I was a nervous wreck for my first show but it was easy. They usually won't judge a class until all of the entrants are there. They will just keep hollering until they have all of the rabbits entered for the class. You just have to...

All of my mini-rexes have whiskers and some of them are pretty cool. Two of my castor show does have striped whiskers. Each whisker looks like a black and white candy cane. Roger L

I breed and show mini-rex and to me they are the best! Their personalities are wonderful and they make me laugh all the time. There is nothing cuter than a litter of mini-rex babies all waiting for you to pick them up and play with them. I have blacks, castors, lilacs, chocolates, reds...

The most that I have paid was $250 plus $175 shipping (with 2 other rabbits) for a 3xBIS castor mini-rex doe with 10 legs, and she was worth every penny of it. She has very nice babies and is very sweet. The rest of my rabbits ranged from $50 to $150. Roger L

You did great Gypsy!! Showing like an old pro now. The Pals are beautiful! Your Flemish aren't so bad either. It seems to me though that your van was a little fuller going home LOL. Roger L.

All is Ok in the Seacoast part of NH. We have had alot of rain but it is soaking into the ground pretty well and staying out of my basement. I am glad that this is not January because it sure would be alot of snow. Roger L

Hi Peg, I breed and show mini-rex. I did alot of research before I picked this breed. They are a small rabbit, bucks no larger than 4.25 lbs and does 4.5 lbs. Of course this is ideal weght and they can get larger with too much food. I feed mine 1/2 cup of Purina show formula a day and...

I bring my bunnies to work with me all the time. In fact my co-workers insist on it. I don't work in an office with alot of commotion though. The bunnies seem to enjoy all the attention that they get and usually spend the day on somebody's lap. Roger

Gypsy, Just because the show is only two weeks from Halloween don't think that you are going to work your magic on me for Silver Foxes LOL.:no: Roger

Don't worry Shadow. I will help you out. This is going to be a big show with 8 judges. But I will not carry the Siver Fox up to the table. It sounds to much like a trap. LOL Roger L
