Believe me, my own kids are getting QUITE the education learning how to care for our chickens and soon to be rabbitry. Thank you for teaching me. ❤️😇🤠

I do agree except rabbits should NOT have wire bottomed cages cause it can make them get sore hocks on the bottom of their feet.

We love rabbit here at our homestead. I love that we can produce healthy lean meat for our family and they can experience the good and bad of live and the challenges of raising food. The joys of baby bunnies they can love and cuddle, the daily and weekly chores that get boring and we'd love to skip but can't, and the hardest day when we process our animals and my children think on the costs of eating meat instead of just buying it from a store. Circle of life people, carnivores ripe them open and they die from their wounds, we spend time and money making sure it's quick and quiet. Commercial farming is hard on the environment but people producing just enough food for themselves and their community is the way if the future.

Really sad knowing their fate. I'm a vegetarian but I believe people who eat meat are best to do it this way. You keep them healthy and in a clean environment (although I would suggest putting something on parts of the wire bottom to try and avoid some health problems and make the bunny more comfortable) But buying from a supermarket people dont view meat as an animal that once lived and breathed but just as meat and would be squeamish of the animals death and wouldnt want to know anything about its death or where it came from (even though they eat it??) Doing it this way you know where your meat comes from and that it was ethical and humane. Although I would personally provide a bigger cage with less of that metal bottom but I get your trying to save time and money. Cute little bunnies too! Idk how you bring yourself to do it though 😳

@GoodSimpleLiving

4 жыл бұрын

It's never easy, but we believe it's the responsible thing to do if we are going to be meat eaters. Also, the wire bottom prevents health problems, it doesn't cause them. For outdoor rabbits it is vital they have a perfectly clean cage at all time. Wood harbors fleas, mites, and causes urine burn on hocks. Any waste in a cage will attract flystrike and bot flies. Our rabbits have resting mats and wooden hay stuffed sleep boxes. They have no hock sores. Carpet would get soiled and wet, and could kill them when they chew it, which they would.

Back when I was a kid we had a Netherland dwarf rabbit baby that had eyes opened at way too early and fur got in it. Cleaned it out but he was like 2 days old and it definitely made him blind his eyes didn't have a chance to finish developing I think. Gotta be extra vigilant with eye issues. Super sweet bunny and we did our best to give him a good life but someone broke into our shelter and had their dog kill pur bunnies they piled them head to toe head to toe at the front of the shelter. Some people are jerks. At least they lived well before then. We lived in town. He made it until he was 2 though. Also such adorable rabbits. I love their colors.

As far as the early eye I wonder if maybe mama's nails or siblings nails possible just sliced them? Have no clue hasn't happened since but it's definitely something I look out for in case. He was a sweet bunny being blind didn't stop that but I'd rather not have another bunny go through being blind if I gave a chance to prevent it. Not the dog thing either. Where I'm at here I doubt that will repeat we have some pretty nice neighbors who love animals. It's one thing to kill for food but whomever it was wanted me to see what they had done to them for sheer entertainment value so they had to be pretty crazy. Wasn't at all a normal thing. I've heard we have to be careful when rehoming animals these days because of people who want to use any animal to help make their fighter get a blood lust. They look for free animals on craigslist. I was warned when I had pups for free when living in AZ. And boy was that lady right I had three nice women contact me about how they are a shelter or oh they love dogs so much they will take them all. All similar stories but all wanting all the pups. I thought that was super weird and didn't give them to them. Truth is animal shelters don't have time to check out free animals on Craigslist they are caring for and trying to rehome the pets they have in their shelters already. These people had women doing the contacting too as if men asked for them it would be more suspicious. I'm an over thinker it being a woman instead didn't make it any less weird to me lol. Those people are who your veganazi haters should be after them instead, maybe they could actually do some good instead of harassing good people lol

All around he had no business there and a person was involved because the cage doors were opened. Also dogs don't like them head to toe out of habit. For sure a dog was involved due to the bite marks but he was definitely coaxed into doing it by his owner it wasn't just some stray dog.

Nope, leave them alone. The doe knows what to do. At 3 weeks take the front off the nest box so they can go in and out. At 9 days they will go out, and not be able to get back in.

Question, where did you get that rabbit? From a farm?
