Here is baby's genes. She is called a lilac sable. aa bb cchl- dd E- Her color wont breed true. If you breed 2 rabbits together with this gene code you may get lilac point which will breed true. But you wont get another lilac sable.

We found the gene!!! Our bunny is cchl!!! The cchl does sometimes cause the eyes to have a ruby glow!!! And my daughter found the rabbit responsible 5 generations back in the line!!! A smoke pearl had the cchl gene!! I knew it wasn't a ch, pointed white. Plus as the kit gets older her color is...

Males can hold their testicle inside. The way to find out is to pop the penis out. Its not hard. Just flip the bun and push down right in front of his pee spot to retract the skin. A penis will pop out in a boy and the vulva will be seen in a girl. The vet is probably correct that its a boy...

Sulmet is medication used in livestock to treat cocci. That all I know about it. I have used it in goats and sheep. As for the ammonia, I would use bleach! Ammonia, IMO is to harsh in fumes and not as good as a disinfectant as bleach. Use bleach diluted with water. I dont remember the ratio for...

Anyone else not have tv programming? We havent had tv since 2004 and havent missed it. We do like movies so we do have a dvd player.

I found chicken pics!! These are the ones that I couldnt put in the freezer!! LOL. Some have names now too. :biggrin2: This is Sweeteness.....never for food!!! She is Favorolle and Golden Laced Cochin cross. She is the favorite out of all the chickens. She is calm and sweet and just wonderful...

Our area has a law against selling animals under 8 weeks and I am glad for it!!! Yeah rabbits can wean earlier but some sell right from teat and they bun has no time to adjust to the change from weaning and lossing the family. The stress of being sold too....and people wonder why the new bun...

I just took chicken pic recently. With eating the chickens, we can play with color when we breed. So we have been doing a lot of cross breeding with many breeds to see what pretty feathers we can get. They only bad side is the prettier the chickens, the harder it is to let them go to the...

SweetSassy wrote: LOL, thanks. I do like the security. Like now, we have all the wood we need for the entire winter all cut and split. We know the heat is all taken care of for this year. Thats a good feeling. Back when we heated with propane we had no clue how we would manage for the winter...

Its broke. No oven. The oven is electric controlled and that went out so you cant use the oven since the temp is through the electric panel. But heck we still have the stove top we can use. Just no more baking. :( Time to dig up a used one fro cheap. CL shopping time. This one was used. I...

Thanks everyone. We love them all. We had more but had to cut back. My mates hours got cut at work, since last summer, and its going to stay this way for the rest of the winter so I sold many of my adult critters. It was so hard and sad. My mate works in ag making machinery, the one area that...

I would go as far as saying a rabbits life sucks if it lives in a cage!! LOL Many caged rabbits have happy lives but they need big cages!!!!! I put dwarf in 'no smaller' than a 3 by 3 foot by 2 ft tall cage...the smallest for a dwarf! The bigger the better and a cage cant be to big! The rabbit...

To keep it from roaming it would need a set up like a chicken coop with a yard thats fenced in and either the birds wings kept cut or bird netting would have to be used. If larger predators are in the area, one swan may be at risk. It may have to be locked up in a coop at night for safety...

Boz wrote: Wow!!! The ads on CL!! I look there to and cant understand why....like this ad. Sorry I thought it was you. My bad. I didnt notice the link. Not really paying close enough attention. Got the flu. Thats why I have been on here most of the day. LOL

Gosh thats such and individual thing!! For me the best buns are the Angoras. No bonding is as often and thorough as grooming time!! LOL They are sweet buns and because of the need to be groomer, I have found them to be the cuddliest. They are pretty too. :) As for other animals...gosh to many...

Why so much not like for this bun when you have other buns? Just wondering. Vinegar works great to remove smell on cage floor or pans. Its an instant odor killer and safe to use. Thats how I keep my rabbitry smelling not like rabbits! :) Maybe clean the cage and wash it down with some vinegar...
