Nestboxes for 3 Does

Posted by Silver Ridge Rabbitry on June 6, 2010 at 4:35 PM

Today was the day to give 3 does nestboxes, but I saw them carrying hay in their mouth, so I gave them their boxes early. All three built, but they get in it a little to eat, and it mats the hay down, so I gave them more today. I will keep you posted on kindling times when it happens. I have also posted some photos of a mother and young stock.

New Rabbitry Set-up!!!

Silver Ridge Rabbitry is pleased to announce that we have changed our set-up. Previously we were raising out of our garage. That was not an ideal situation, now we are cooking, we have stacking cages from our manufacturer, in a milk house adapted from my father's cow barn, generations of farmers, now in my family. My new set-up is stacking cages with trays. It is so organized and neat, and I hope to keep it that way. I can not say enough about setting it (the rabbitry) up once and doing it right the first time. I just sold off my used cages, that didn't fit into the rabbitry, now I have new and wonderful challenges with my rabbitry. I can not stress how much you want to think about your set-up (cages feeders watering systems, etc.) As much as you want to find the best stock to begin with. If you begin with great stock and a great set-up you can deal with minimal or plenty of space, a barn with poop falling, or stacking trays in basement or a garage or shed. Rabbits are a commitment, so start with the best stock and supplies. Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in seeing our set-up.
