You really do everything you can to give the rabbits the best care. Love your channel!!!!
I so love how you explain and show what your talking about.
Great.....I need this to show my little niece and nephew! Y'all are fantastic! Love watching your channel! GOD BLESS Y'ALL! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤❤🇺🇲🇺🇲
The rabbits are so cute, and you're doing a great job making sure they stay cool.
I really think it’s great that you take such good care of your animals and make sure they are comfortable. It’s also nice that you share information to help people . I hope you have a blessed day.
Thank you Sharon! 😊
Your Animals are so well cared for and kept clean. Thankful for showing how it should be done. You are both an inspiration
Thank you! 😊
When I raised rabbits I had a old sheet that I would put on in the summer, because I did not have any shade for them and I kept it wet and just let the air flow go thur it and did the water bottles to when the temps here in New Mexico USA would get over 100. they do work. I love all of your videos. Loves and hugs from the little 61 old lady in New Mexico USA. May God bless you and your family
Awesome watching Alex take care of the feeding and water. Then Jacob gives us the 5 plus one great tips on rabbit care in warmer weather. Love your setup. Reminds me of caring for my rabbits in Detroit.
Jennifer Aiken thank you! 😊
You always have the prettiest colors for your baby bunnies. Like all your animals, you take wonderful care of them. Never thought of using a tile. In the summer the dogs & cats would lay on tile for the coolness and I just never thought about swapping out the wood for a tile. Great ideas as always!
Jayne Skidmore they love the tile!! 👍
Love watching you Alex and so good at explaining...I love all you two do....beautiful place you have....wishing you the best...God Bless you two...I so enjoybyr videos
Such a hard worker. Love it 😍
Lunch in Aus...with my 2 favourite TH-camrs ….you are so informative and its lovely to see how you care for each of your animals and gardens. Cheers stay safe and take care.
Thank you so much Pamela! 😊
Thanks for all those excellent pointers.
Hello Jacob and Alex hope y'all are doing well. Great video lots of information very informative thank you for sharing. Stay safe sending prayers 🙏 and God's blessings. Much love and big tx hugs from South Tx.
Thanks for sharing. The black and white two-tone color rabbits are so pretty. And all the little babies are so adorable. I would have a hard time not falling in love with them.
You raise some very pretty rabbits. I love the spotted coats. The babies are adorable❤❤
thank you guys for sharing all that good solid information.
God bless you from Michigan
Baby rabbits are sooo sweet 🐰
Your Rabbits are so cute and they are well taken care of. Thank as enjoyed this.
Thank you leann
Also I live in Florida so this video was really helpful tks
Great video love the channel, very informative.
Gary O'Brien thank you! 👍😀
Thank you for sharing this information. When I was younger and raising small animals we also put up shade cloth that we could walk under. Does not interfere with the air flow or brightness and gives much needed extra shade.
Debra Hudson that’s a great idea! 👍
Nice tips for rabbit raising...
Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻
I am really impressed by the rabbit set up great job
Hey, I love the array of colors on the babies 💥
Rabbits are adorable
Those are cute bunnies. The tile is a great idea
That tile hack is GENIUS
You are very good at sharing information! Great video!
Great ideas. When we raised rabbits my gram said never breed a rabbit in any month that doesn't have an R in it. We learned that the hard way🤨
I REALLY LIKE YOUR TRACTORS AND ONCE AGAIN GREAT INFORMATION 💯💯💯💯💯
I love your handles on your rabbit tractors
Nice video, that's some good information. Blessings!

My little clover died in April last year from overheating I haven’t got another bunny since but now I’m getting a new one very soon so thank you for this video 😊
Awesome ideas! Thank you ! I have a friend in Arizona that raises rabbits. It gets hot! She utilizes the Ice bottles, and just popped a note to use some solar fans...thank you! I bought Two shirts the Second they went on Sale! Yay!
That’s awesome Tilly! I really appreciate you buying two of our shirts and supporting our channel! 😊❤️
Thank you so much for the information Enjoyed your Channel
Caring people care for their friends and animals!
Good point on the water system! I have the same system, my 5 Silver Fox rabbits will empty the bucket in about 2-3 days. I am ready for fall so we can start breeding again!
We love the water system, we just got silver fox rabbits this year.
@@SawyerRidgeFarm we just got our Silver Fox this year as well. We bred new zealand and cali cross years ago for meat. If you get the chance check out my setup and let me know what you think!!
Love this video thank you ❤️ the tile is a great idea
Kami thank you! We really love the tile idea too! 👍
good video...never knew you had rabbits till the last couple of videos
I did not know you had that many rabbits. Very good info thanks.
Thank you! And yes, we have quite a few. Can be a handful at times. Lol 😄
Great video. I use to raise rabbits in my younger days
Jim Arbuckle Jr thank you! They’re fun to raise! 👍
Hi guys
We have a couple of rabbits and my son put up a water mist system for them we turn on in the heat of the day
Ty for sharing 💖😊♥️♥️
Patty Price that’s a good idea! 👍😀
Great information
Love your videos! I also bought a shirt. Can't wait to get it. I need to order my neem oil you told me about also. Love you all.
Thank you so much for your support to our channel Wanda! 😊
I got the neem oil ordered along with a few things Thanks for your help n responses!
@@panda18770 your welcome glad we could help
Hello great video. Y'all have some cute rabbits.
johnnie bunton thank you! 👍😀
Great tips thanks
How in the heck do you get 1 thumbs down I love your videos Alex I was worn out in about 2 minutes watching you water and feed the rabbits and having to tote the water sorry I got to take a break🥱 and Jacob if you ever get tired of homesteading I think you can make it on the comic circuit your a natural 😂🤣❤️👍
Thank you for sharing this. Plus, you can given them frozen veggies as well. OJ bottles are nice and thick. I have people saving them for me. I also spray the ground underneath the cages which cools the area as well. Just a couple of things I am trying. The rabbits seem to enjoy all your ways you described to cool them off. My rabbits are in your design of cages in a covered shelf, within my garden. Easy to use up their manure. God Bless you both.
Great tips y’all!!! ❤️ 🐰
Walker Farm Fam thanks y’all! Your video yesterday was very informational as well! 👍😀
Good info. If it breaks 72 here I'll be using the ideas!
72 degrees Fahrenheit? That's hot for bunnies, or what? It breaks 72 all the time in the midwest
Good old fashioned common sense information. Thanks!
I have just begun to watch your videos! Love your farm.....but, while I know you are raising the rabbits for food, I just don’t know how you can do it! They are soooo cute! Loved my pet rabbit when my kids were little.
Peggy Moncrief thank you for watching our channel! We just know from the day they’re born to not get attached, but give them the best possible life we can.
Like the water bucket waterer
Another great video with lots of information for people. Alex you wore me out just watching you dear. Such beautiful little bunnies! Xs &
Glen Okla thank you! 😊❤️
@@SawyerRidgeFarm You're so very welcome!
Easiest animals to care for on a farm...Rabbits 😊. Gotta love rabbits ❤️
You both are awesome 👌 discussing 😀 and sharing with us about the rabbits. I am watching Alex picking up the cute 😍 little babies and I can't imagine how in a few months you butch ea of them . Like goats or chickens they outgrow their cuteness 😍 and cuddling factor the bunnies stay soft and cuddly and that's why I can't do that part & finally gave up the rabbits! How did you guys get past that??
We just know in our minds from the the day they’re born not to get attached.
the rabbits are looking good
Great info... God Bless
john carothers thanks! 👍
Good tip to put frozen water bottles in the 5 gallon bucket. I put ice in my chicken bucket to cool the water, but I like this idea better. THANKS
second video on how to keep rabbits cool and i watched both and dont even own a rabbit lol hugsss
Haha! Well I guess you’ll be well prepared if you ever do. 😄 thanks for watching! 👍
thanks for the information. planning to move my bunnies outside since my husband is allergic to their furs but worried at the same time coz its too hot in here in uae..
What is your watering system? Curious about that. The bucket you showed.
How does the bucket system work?
Love ❤️ ❤️ great 👍🏻 thanks 🤩 love ❤️ and god bless love ❤️ the facial hair great 😊 video
Im so jealous seeing you in shorts Alex its my turn to do rabbits in the cold 🥶
The Provost family it’s been very hot here lately! 🥵
Where are you from?
Sawyer Ridge Farm Sydney
Can you please do a video about winter?
Awesome
Awesome information! We are small scale rabbit breeders, strictly for one of our meat sources. We have two doe and two buck and last winter (December), we bred and had kits in January...first time doe mom and we lost an entire litter of 7 kits...we live in N.E. Texas close to OK/ARK borders...zone 7b...when do ya'll begin your breeding? You are probably a little colder than we get here...lowest last winter was 20 deg...we did get a nice litter from both does and are growing out 15 gorgeous kits...sure would sell...but focus is on our organic meat we raise..God Bless
Ginger Reid we’ll start breeding them again probably end of August or even September. We’ve lost some kits to the cold, but only because they fell out of the nest box and we didn’t see them in time to get them back in there and they got too cold.
Hi sir,. I'm a new subscriber in your TH-cam channel. I love bunnies and so I choose rabbit to be my pet and as I am looking for ideas of cage and water system. I've found your videos here and I like it.. I'm watching from Philippines 👋👋 God bless you and your family..
Thank you so much for coming over and subscribing to our channel! 👍😀
Where did u get the red handles??
Great advice 👍🇺🇸
Lilah ,newton thank you! 👍😊
What is the auto water system with the bucket?
We are in ND, cold winters and warm summers. Would we need a shed or does the open air method and covering 3 sides work?
You should be good just make sure they are not in direct wind in the winter, adult rabbits are very good in cold weather. We dont get as cold as yall. We will at times when we have really cold snaps put like a removable like tarp on the front just for extra cover something to consider.
The hottest part of the day here in Texas is Sun up to sun down.
awesome video as always :-) god bless you all :-)
Thank you Rick! 👍😀
The white bunnies with red eyes freak me out! Lol love the video.
aj muehleman yeah, they are a little freaky. Lol 😄
Add salt to the water bottles before you freeze them, it makes them colder and slower to melt. There’s a certain amount of salt you gotta use but can’t remember. Also you can put the ceramic tiles in the freezer too😉 Y’all are such responsible animal owners, so many people don’t care. Do you have an issue with flies? I’m struggling right now with the flies and they’re driving me absolutely crazy, any suggestions how to cut down on the flies?
That’s a great idea with the water. 👍
And yes, we do have flies, but right now we just put out those disposable fly traps you can get at Walmart.
I use gallon jugs , they lick the condensation .
Do you sell earthworms? The first person I ever saw who raised rabbits dug up earthworms under the hutches and sold them to bait shops. ~ Really enjoyed watching Alex take care of the rabbits!
Lauren McW we definitely could. There’s always a bunch of earthworms under their cages! 😄
I love these cute bunnies as a pet. Do you ever get attached to any of them?
No we just know what they are here for and why we got them.
It will be nice when Melissa and Jason come to visit and you guys can enjoy the company. Perhaps they’ll be able to shower and clean up and you guys can all go to church on Sunday
We’d love that! ❤️
I would think if you layed the
water down on the tile that would keep the tile cool too?
Then just switch out the frozen bottle.
Good luck stay cool!
JO JO IN VT 💕😄
Thank u I'm a new rabbit owner since I hate cats but I love dogs and i have 3 so is it possible for them to get along together. I also have two baby males when should I get them neutered
Do you have a video like this but specifically about newborn kits? I don’t raise rabbits and it was an accidentally situation n I’m not even 100% sure she’s pregnant but I’m preparing.. “Potato” is an indoor but however we don’t have ac and it gets pretty warm even with the fans on .. will the nesting box get too warm? Should I maybe add holes for air flow?
Yes holes would be good. What we have done is don't let the fur the mom makes her nest with get really thick after they are born. Definitely try to have a fan close to them to circulate the air.
@@SawyerRidgeFarm thank you sooo much for responding and so quickly!! I really appreciate the tips! Thanks!
@@travinatolbert5905 your welcome
I have heard that down South, farmers used to load their chickens in cages in the back of their pickups and ride around to cool them down in summer. Can you do that with rabbits, too?
That sounds like it would be a little more stress on the animal than what is necessary. 🤔 But that’s just my own opinion.
Jacob you need to stand closer to your razor! LOL
Michael Green he’s trying to see what he can grow in a months time. If it’s not good, he’ll shave it off. Lol I agree though, it’s a little different seeing him with any facial hair.
Not everyone has water just ask Jason😜😂
Woodchris Finest I thought about that too when he said that. Lol
❤
How do you keep flies away?
