i am not sure if this will work, Angle's pix will be later.

Sorry if it is too big!!

I can't see that pic. You need to upload them to somewhere like www.photobucket.com or another hosting site.

Have you bred before? Are you all ready incase of emergencies?

I hope it goes well

Sorry the pic did not turn out.
When i was little we breed rabbits.
last summer one of my sisters males got in to a females cage she had one baby, she was 6 years old, the baby died.:X:X

 

[Flashy]

Aw, poor six year old bunny to have to go through that.

Are you all ready with a nest box and stuff to put it?

If you can tell us more about the breeding we might be able to give you some guidance and help if you want some Like ages, size, breed, how you mated them, etc.

They are Angora.
To breed Angle i just put her Teddy's cage.
We have a nesting box, when should i put it in her cage?

 

[Flashy]

I believe the nest box should be put in on the 28th day.

How old is she? How many times did he 'do the deed'? Was she in there for long?

 

[lemon]

she is a year and a half, may be a bout 5 to 10 times...?
She was there for about 10 to 15 mins, i am not too sure...

 

[Flashy]

Is this her first litter?

 

[lemon]

It is her second.

Sounds like you are set up. If you are using a metal nestbox, I'd line the sides with corragated cardboard to keep it warmer.

Make sure the nestbox does not get put into the corner that she uses to potty.

 

[Flashy]

Cool. How did she do with her first litter?

We got her after first litter, so i don't know.

 

[Flashy]

Fair enough. I just wondered because obviously if she was a great mum last time then she would probably be good this time. Hopefully she will know what to do. Sounds like you've done everything right so far so good for you.

Keep us updated

Silly question, did you bring your doe out of coat before hand? I met a woman a couple shows ago who said she was having a hard time getting her angora does bred. I thought this was strange as I've never run into any problems with any of my girls.

Here, she had neglected to shear down her doe before hand! Angora fiber is so thick you can't get a proper mating unless you cut it all out of the way.:bunny17:

I thought it was obvious, but I thought I'd ask. Good luck with your babies.

Good luck with the babies!! I have a litter of mini' rexes just 6 days later!
