Black oil sunflower seeds are an excellent addition to your animals feed during the winter months, packed full of fat, protein and vitamins they provide a rabbit with extra calories to burn which helps keep them warm. Feeding rabbits video: th-cam.com/video/n5A8yAB1roo/w-d-xo.html
Horizontal migration worm bin
มุมมอง 16K10 ปีที่แล้ว
I've been wanting to do make one of these for a few months, last week the right confluence of events allowed me to do just that. A horizontal migration worm bin works along the same principle as a stacking system but instead of adding trays of feedstock and the worms migrating up, I add food to a side chamber and the worms migrate to the side. It allows more surface area because the weight is n...

    Use crushedbcharcoal on ur rabbit manure mixed with water wait for 2 weeks to 1 month..trust me its far more superior..activated biochar via rabbit manure is exceptional for soil fertility and will not broken down for even a thousand years..think of thr ancient soil of the amazon terra preta

    "Make sure you keep your hands clean after applying the bag balm, for biosecurity reasons" *squirts out too much ivermectin* "We're just gonna put that back in the bottle, contaminate the rest of the medicine with what might have been on the banana peel". You could've just spread the extra on the rest of the banana peel, cut it into smaller pieces, then given it out to others as a precaution.

    So, I rescued a baby Lionhead bunny who was neglected & discovered he had fur mites which has now caused ear mites. I always try natural remedies first. So, I coated his spots in in Organic Canola oil as it was all I had on hand. That just gave me a greasy bunny cause he couldn't groom the oil out. Very, very reluctantly I have him a warm bath & blew dry his fur. Then, I gave him a few dust baths with Diatomaceous Earth. It stopped his itching instantly & the redness between his ears faded, but the mites are fighting back. This morning he started scratching his ears & shaking his head. Now, I'm reaching for the big guns. I'm trying the Ivermectin & I'll treat him for an inner ear infection with 1 Basil Leaf twice daily for 10 days. Word to the wise...if you give your rabbit hay or use wood bedding, throw both in the freezer for 72 hours to kill any mites. My poor baby, but he's eating, drinking, getting the zoomies & doing binkies. I'm very lucky.

    My rabbit is an inside rabbit, I believe she received the mits either from the trip to the park or the wood shavings that I purchased from Petco ( I’ve been using for more than 5 months now 🤷🏾‍♀️) I’m concerned that while treating the mites they may leave out of her cage and into my house. There’s no out side yard that I can place her in while I do the treatment. Any advice I would definitely appreciate it.

    There are a lot of similarities in terms of line breeding with chickens, if you are breeding a particular breed or type, you pretty much have to line breed, maybe with a little bit of an outcross here and there. But either way, you have got to cull hard!

    Line breeding is not bad. If one of the parents have a bad recessive gene it only makes it more noticeable. It doesn’t do anything bad. Now if your litter has weak deformities then you should probably get rid of the rabbit

    This is my first year having rabbits (2 of them) and I'm not sure how to use the litter. They use a litter box so there is usually pine or aspen shavings, pee, and sometime hay mixed in with their poop. I rototilled some of this into the garden this spring but I wanted to keep using it on my plants through the summer if possible. How often can I apply it without over fertilizing, is it safe to use the pee and everything mixed in or does it need watered down/dried out, and what is the best way to apply it?

      To begin with rabbits are not pets. They are exotic animals. Our "domestic" rabbits were developed from European rabbits. Originally for the fur industry , then for meat as well. Obviously you have absolutely no idea of the breed of rabbit that is in the video. To try to teach stupid , it is a Californian. It has been developed and bred to be on wire flooring and in cages. As has all of the meat breed rabbits. I get that people want to make pets out of every animal , but the reality of it is , these are not pets they are good and clothing. Some people don't like that. But that's on them. Don't preach your ideas on other people. And if you do at least educate yourself so you don't look like a total idiot to those that see the world for what it really is. At least those that raise rabbits for meat know EXACTLY what is in there meat and how humanly it was dealt with when the time came. It was not shipped to a slaughterhouse and killed without compassion.
