Hello All! Our local fair will soon be upon us, and after meeting with some fair board people last night and working out some kinks...we also found that there's absolutely nothing happening in our livestock arena saturday night (Sept 1). I had suggested perhaps a Bunny Show Jumping...

yeah I googled and tried going to differentt sites but I was having trouble finding someone selling just pure angora wool that wasn't spun or dyed or mixed with another fiber. I finally went on ebay and found some people selling for $5.95 an ounce.

So I started a kind of all natural jewelry and materials site on Etsy, and i found some raw angora rabbit wool in my attic back from when I used to raise English Angoras. I was going to stick this on there to sell to people who spin and the like but I wanted the price to be fair for buyers and...

yes an iodine based scrub works well. I've used pure iodine topically also, but it tends to burn and irritate the skin in addition. So I would use that every 2 days or so and use fung-a-way in between. I also didn't learn until late that one of hte best killers of fungus...is sunlight! Here I...

2 summers ago I had a big outbreak of ringworm in my barn. I didn't have a whole lot of answers for how to treat it and I needed it gone FAST. I toughed it out for many months, and I had a couple cases return the following year. Also, I used to rescue rabbits, until a couple I brought home...

Tort is the only variety I dont raise...and i'm always amazed how well you can see the markings seconds after birth....except torts look like albinos! You can hardly tell where the lines are!

I'm glad you liked it. So many times i've missed the birth or they waited until i've left the room. It's somewhat rare to get the chance to actually observe the birth...and since they do this sitting up and hunched over, you miss a lot of the details. I was thrilled Clem gave me the opportunity...

I dont think the other momma was feeding them as much as they could eat...and I kept finding them peed on and cold. I tried nursing them on her and she got pretty upset. I said fudge on this, i'll give them to a momma who appreciates babies. But by this time there were only 3 left, the other 3 I...

Update: The little opal (kit #1) passed away today. No idea what happened. He was fat and happy last night. It happens I suppose. Another blue doe of mine had 6 babies 2 days after, and killed 3 of them, so I tookt he remaining 3 from her and gave them to Clementine, who has been a wonderful...

Just seconds old, being birthed! 7 Days old

"Aw fudge, the slave sent her dog again...I can drool on my own craisins thank you."

Looks like just those 2! We'll see how she does, I may divy up a bigger litter that my other doe had on monday... but she's doing a fantastic job too so I dont see the need just yet. I still have another doe about to pop!

Not a problem. thank you!

yeah thats fine, i made it for educational purposes so help yourselves.

Right now there's just two and she's in there getting a drink. She could have more later or she could be done. It's unusual for my Dutch to just have 2, usually I get at least 4-5. I guess we'll have to wait until later for that info.

i'm sorry to hear it, but it's part of raising bunnies I suppose. She's still in there doing her thing, she ws doing so well I figured she'd earned some privacy. -JAK

Thought this might be good for educational purposes. My Dutch Clementine just gave birth about 10 minutes ago. I filmed the first 2 kits. The second one I noticed was breach, and I was about to reach over and pull it out and then one big push and it was on the ground so, I guess she didn't need...
