Sometimes Raising Rabbits can be a Challenge | Silver Fox Meat Rabbits 

Thank you!

I appreciate your kindness, thanks for being a part of my channel 💜 good luck with your rabbits 🙂

Yep, coyotes took over after the wolves were wiped out. Coyotes are everywhere now, including urban areas like Chicago.

Yes it is! And yes she's a pain but I love her 💙 she's a good momma. I'm thinking I'm going to give her a break from breeding for a month or so.

@@rabbitathomestead I know what you mean. One of our does, Midnight, is a bit fussy about breeding... but she's such a wonderful mom, and we adore her. 🐇🥰✌️

No problem!

Wow that's terrible! That's a good idea. I was surprised they came up so close to the house. But it is winter and they are probably hungry enough to come closer.

Do you have a garage? Or a basement?

Thank you! We have three hutches. One holds three stalls and the other two hold 2 large stalls. So all together I have 7 stalls for rabbits.

I think you have really nice houses for your rabbits. I am not able to afford such luxuries like that. And I don’t really know how to build things or to use electrical tools. So I’m hoping to use pallets and wrap the side closer to the rabbits with rabbit wire and the outer side too to make it harder for predators to get to the rabbits. I would like to have metal roofs for them. But I don’t know how to manage that. I had rabbits when I lived in a different house. At the time some Boy Scouts had build me a hutch. And later on a friend and build me one out of pallets. It was sturdy and huge!!!!!!!!! I was able to divide that section into 2. So I’m hoping to do something like that again. I love it when you talk about your rabbits and when I watched all of your videos I will start them over to watch them again.

I'm sorry, for some reason I never saw this last comment from you! Anyways, thank you and I hope you are able to get a nice set up going! Did you see my latest video? It's all about my rabbit setup. Thanks for watching 😊

That's great! We get down to -20s. I make sure the wind stays off of them and they are dry. I also give does and bucks nest boxes to cuddle up in with hay and Aspen shavings

Yes, it's just easier for us to get too in the winter and in the summer it's better to have them close to the house because wildlife is less likely to bother them.

I'm glad you enjoyed! We get down in sub zero temps. As long as they have the wind off of them and they stay dry, they will be fine. Once temps hit below freezing I like to give my breeders nest boxes with hay and Aspen shavings to sleep in.

CanI raise rabbits this way if it get down to -30C here in Canada?

Absolutely!

That video will be out soon

Yes I do! I took video of the paw prints but it must not have been recording because I can't find the footage. But I definitely think it's coyotes! I'm so glad they all have nestboxes to hide in.

@@rabbitathomestead yes. Some place to duck into is very important. Love your updates.

Thank you!
