The Baby Bunny BOOM! How many were born? 

Lloyd Sheffer aww yay!! I love hearing that! I’m glad you both enjoyed the video! ☺️

Do you give it throughout the 4wks or last day or so? Just curious, ty...

Those names are great!! 😆 Congrats on your babies as well! So many! 😊

Vinagrette has 9 also but they are 4 weeks older. She is an awesome mama, I dont need to breed another doe at the same time unless its to track the the other doe.

Edy Kizaki thank you! She’s a pretty girl 🥰

Holly is a beautiful girl!! We love her ❤️

Thank you!

They are very cute 😊

Soooo many! 😂 we’re very excited! 😊

Absolutely! Keep an eye out on january, I will be documenting my entire process from breeding to kindling to growing them out 😊

@@TealStoneHomestead For sure. My daughter and granddaughter watched your videos for hours yesterday after my comment. They made a list of all the ingredients we need to buy today to make up a special mix for rabbit health (falx seed, pumpkin seed, etc). Now I need to see that one. They are 5 and 8 :) I am heading to the hardware store to buy lumber to build another hutch to house our spare cages. Unfortunately they are all 21-24" deep and so I want to make a 2 level with separator like you did for top level waste to roll out the back and make the lower level deeper. I bought a lot of cages from someone with a lots of odds and ends so want to make use but increase space for new mamas and babies below (since we have less than a month from our due dates). Sorry to ramble but it is fun to share our new family journey too. I had 50 Netherlands and 2 boys showing them almost 20 years ago but with my youngest kiddos they never got to experience. Round 2 :) Also, I need to get the tea recipe (and the mix if you have a hardcopy). Thanks.

@@tshultzpt sounds like you have a fun journey ahead of you! 😊 the seed mix and tea that I give my rabbits are completely optional, but I enjoy giving them supplements like that! You can usually buy the tea at any health food store. The brand is “Traditional Medicinals” and it’s just raspberry leaf tea, caffeine free with nothing added. Many people opt for feeding the actual raspberry leaves they have instead of giving tea. I hope to to that if we ever have raspberry bushes!

Apsinthos Arts thank you! Yes baby buns are always the cutest ❤️

Thank you!! 😊

Thank you :)

Hi Alexis! There's not really a reason I chose wood over metal. I just had plywood to spare and made these with what I had :) Wood is a bit more insulating, but harder to clean. Since this video, I swapped out 1/2" x 1/2" hardware cloth on the bottom of the boxes for 1/4" x 1/4". Bedding doesn't fall out as easily and I don't need a piece of wood in the bottom anymore, but pee still drains out. My boxes are 10" wide, 20" long, and 10" high. An extra inch of room definitely wouldn't hurt. I only did two litters of Silver Fox x Creme crosses, and both times, my purebred silver foxes outgrew them! In my experience, cremes are rather slow growing, but it could be my particular line. I'm working on purebred cremes now, trying to improve them and get those weights up. I never noticed a health difference, but there is such thing as hybrid vigor! For KW Cages, I upgraded all of my floors to HD 14 gauge. I would do it over again! LOVE the sturdy floors. Your plan sounds like a good one! :)

@@TealStoneHomestead thanks so much for the reply. One other thing I thought of that seems people have a lot of opinions on. Do you process shortly after weaning? I’m planning to do a rabbit tractor but in winter will I need extra cages for them when I wean after 8 weeks or do you just process right around then and keep with mom until then.

@@Alexis_9339 Nowadays I usually keep mom with the babies until they're 8 weeks old (unless I need to rebreed the mom sooner). I don't typically process the babies until around 12 weeks. I have two rabbits tractors that are 3ft x 6ft and the litters have a lot of room in them :)

@@TealStoneHomestead so you tractor them during winter also? I didn’t even think of that as an option lol. Thank you for so graciously answering my questions. Hope you have a wonderful night. Fingers crossed you will have some babes for me in the spring!

@@Alexis_9339 I do, but it’s a bit different in the winter. I have stands that I raise the tractors up off the ground with. I think it’s in my Creme d’Argent Babies video where I talk a little bit about them and show the two different ways 😊

I feed primarily Kent Show Hutch Deluxe 17, but also unlimited hay. I forage for them during the warmer months and they get fresh veggies and fruits every so often 😊

They were only meat rabbits. Personal experiment. We never sold any 😊

Good question

I actually don’t use a pedigree software! I’m a graphic designer, so I edit all of my pedigrees in indesign. I wanted them to look pretty 😆

It’s just the traditional medicinals brand that I’ve steeped 😊

It is Traditional Medicinals brand. You can find it at health food stores and kroger sometimes.

@@TealStoneHomestead how often do you give the tea throughout the 4 weeks or last day(s)? Curious... ty

I do sometimes! I have a waiting list form in my website 😊

A rabbit’s gestation is typically 31 days

Ok so I got new rabbit male and he just breed but no fallof so what I do

@@jahanbg6876 if there is no falloff then likely it wasn’t a successful breeding.

Maybe they breeded yesterday cus my little brother say they war breeding so maybe fallof

Kiln dried pine shavings are perfectly safe for rabbits! It’s Cedar you need to worry about😊

Pine shavings are perfectly safe for rabbits. It’s only cedar shavings you need to be wary of due to the natural oils that can be hard on a rabbit’s respiratory system.

That entirely depends on the dogs and the rabbits my dog has grow up her hole life around rabbits and has been trained to respect them and the rabbit have been introduced to the dog so they know not to fear her in most homesteading cases the dogs know the rabbits and the rabbits know the dogs so it fine
