Just owt bunnies here as no space to do anything else 😢 Semi helpful, I saw a you tube video where they had built tunnels with adapted insulated boxes so litters to be born. Protected from foxes etc however owners had access so could keep an eye on. Cool in summer, warmer as needed... Hopefully safer than potential damage by nature... A video to look out for as a different idea. Bless little flood survivor... Adorable

I want to see someone put a rabbit colony in an in ground swimming pool. Probably have to install drains in the bottom and out through the walls, but man would it be cool!

I really like this idea. I've been raising rabbits in cages & HATE it! I feel so cruel So, this is an interesting idea, although I would probably want 1 buck & 2 does b/c I'm trying to give them some social time ? which is probably crazy since my does don't seem to like other does in their space, even when I put them in a big yard. So anyway, I like your idea & especially raising up the flooring - how deep is the dirt above ground level, looks like about 2 feet

After seperating the kids from the parents to their own colony how do you make sure that the males dont fight each other when kept together?

So how do you keep it from stinking? If they urinate and poo underground, you cant rake and clean up properly.
@kummerhomestead
@kummerhomestead 22 дня назад
We use a deep litter method. That means we keep adding fresh bedding once every 7-14 days. The rabbits maintain their own tunnels by closing them after each litter and digging new ones.

Yes, we keep the breeding pairs together all the time.

I raise rabbits in the pasture and now I'm trying the colony for the first time. I have one couple in 43 square feet and I move them every 2 days. There is a wooden box with a nest. I'm concerned about the buck's behavior. The day before birth and the day after he is constantly trying to mate with the doe. She squeals and runs away but he keeps chasing her. I separated them now and I'm looking for an answer whether what's happening is normal. I'm afraid he'll impregnate her and the babies will lose milk. Please let me know if I can keep them together in such a situation.

We've had the occasional buck chasing the doe while she was still lactating but never ran into an issue with her drying up.

Plot twist, the doe give next birth today. There is only one kid, previously was 7. The scenario repeats. The buck try to mate and the doe looks exhausted. I separated them again. It seems that she got pregnant quite quick (in one week) after previous birth. Do this frequency is normal? I ussualy kept youngs only with mother for about two months.

How often are you seeing litters is it every 4-6 weeks. I really like this idea and would want to use it myself, but really only want about 4-6 litters total a year from my doe.
@kummerhomestead
@kummerhomestead 2 месяца назад
Yeah, about every six weeks or so.
