This is the most explosive down to earth breakdown of rabbit farming i have seen in a while. May God bless you bro. i should contact you after i put some things in place. Respect from Nigeria
Very interesting,motivating and educative.The mistake l was doing,was mating rabbits of one blood stream.Just praying to be big.have learnt a lot from my mistakes.Very educative.Keep up the good work
@@samhertfarms1575 u are really explain almost everything but sir, it is mean pallets feed more nutrients than grass especially tridax. U are also say something about grower and broiler starter feed. Pls is for all age rabbit or wearner or grower. Then pls what about feed formula?
@@mustaphaolayide2233 it's for all age ..from day 1 to slughter.. the grower or broiler mash can be turned into pelleted feed with the pellete d machine..
@@samhertfarms1575 can pallets broiler grower or starter can be use alone as their feed? Pls can u give out ur own feed formula bcos I heard u mentioned toxic binder, vitamins, corn, wheat and PKC?
@@mustaphaolayide2233 yes it can but u need to be supporting it with hay..dry grass.. I have improved my feed and have reduced cost .... For now I use.. 1 bag of 50kg broiler starter mixed with 4 bags of wheat bran and I add 25kg of PKC...I also add 250grams of salt. Becos I have more rabbits, they consumption rate of feed is high so if I mix that amount, it finishes within 3 weeks so no need to add toxin binder to preserve it. Thank you
Thank you very much for this it's well explained in details. But please I have a question to ask...if I want to pair my rabbits,for how long can I leave them to stay together and must the pairing be of the same sex or opposite sex?
Thanks for ur encouragement..you can pair females and males together after weaning them for at least 3 months...after 3 months, u need to separate the males from the females to prevent any premature mating ... You need to also separate the males after 4 months to at least two in a room to prevent them from fighting. You can keep more females together until u mate them , they hardly fight as compared to the males. Thank you You
Please don't get ur question..kindly ask again... you can breed a Doe with two bucks but make sure you don't breed the bucks with their female babies when they grow...that will be the same blood mating which will lead to inbreeding
I saw your oil therapy for bloating Ive had a severe issue with this and baby rabbits lately (I think gma has been giving the babies treats that they arent suppose to have). How often have you found this working. Im pretty desperate its been one thing after anothet lately after 6 years hardly any issues. This year the owl decided to get them fixed that with deer netting over the top of the pen (we have colony female rabbits). My large Flemish Giant male got loose in said colony and impregnated my female rabbits (including my 4lbs female small breed rabbits 🤦♀️ ). Anyway my females made it thankfully but there were many still born miscarriages etc. There were also many born that were fine too. Basically this year if it can go wrong it has. We have just been catching up all year with whatever happens. Recently we lost some babies to bloat too. We used gas drops and massaged bellies to lose them anyway. If this works well Ill try it next time (hopefully there isnt a next time but this year I am not ruling anything out as bad as things have gotten). So please let me know how often they manage to make it. Is it because its helping dislodge an obstruction like its causing their stools to loosen?
@@samhertfarms1575 I mean is the oil you give them going to cause them diarrhea also how often does the oil save them when they get bloat in your experience? I am willing to try it next time because I have lost quite a few to it. Suddenly hits them and nothing we did worked. Never thought of giving them oil.
@@SunnieDIY the oil will push out the gas in the stomach and it can be through passing of wet poop in the form of diarrhea...Enough water must be available for the rabbit to drink as it goes through this process.. and please you need to be observant, most at times, if you don't see it early and it gets to the worse stage, it's difficult to treat and may led to death..so you need to be observant and treat it from the initial stage. Thank you
I don't know where u read that but I don't agree to that.. antibiotics is helpful to rabbits to prevent bacteria's and other unseen diseases from invading them. It also depends on the kind of antibiotics drug you administer to them.
@d_shy_4199 it means a lot, it is either they have developed fat which If so , u need to put them on hay (dry leaves) for a while or kindly give them to another male and try again...sometimes it may be from the male
@@samueloppong2316 ei.. This is new to me.. Wow.. So i made a video on my channel and the woman had only Cockerels but she said the person who sold to her made a mistake and added females who lay eggs. I think they are female Cockerels. I don't think she knows males lay eggs too.. Hahahahaaa... Wooow
