    Looking for advice on new bunny set up

    I did something similar to this when I had some breeding English lops. It was awesome. I didn't have a lot of predators but I lined the run with pavers that were I think 12x12. The buns loved it. I also had covered dog crates as they loved to be in them or be on top of them (think like a goat...

    Will a bunny sit on my lap and stay there ?

    Yes and no.....Some breeds just don't like to be handled a whole lot like that. I don't currently have any buns right now as my daughter is allergic but I have had them on and off most of my life. My favorite is to sit criss-cross and they would lay in between my legs and stay there for a long...

    What to do with a rooster when you don’t want fertile eggs all the time

    Thank you to those who actually answered my question and helped me figure out the best option for my new chicken family. That was what I had wanted help for. At no point did I ever ask for opinions about me being a vegetarian and what I will and will not eat. I also did not give anyone else my...

    What to do with a rooster when you don’t want fertile eggs all the time

    The only animal products I eat are eggs and cheese. Occasional milk when it's in products already. I personal will probably never be vegan.....i love cheese :)

    That’s a great idea! Thank you! That’s even better than the incubator since my daughter will be active in the whole process. Thank you for understanding the conviction part 😉

    What to do with a rooster when you don’t want fertile eggs all the time

    Either way I wanted chickens too. I would have chosen a different bred though. They have leasing at her school for goats. I was trying to get her to do Alpaca’s b/c we know enough to get started with those but she ended up falling in love with silkies and changed her mind…..2 totally different...

    What to do with a rooster when you don’t want fertile eggs all the time

    I wish she could do rabbits!!!!!! She’s allergic and that’s one of the animals I raised in FFA! Rabbits are my absolute favorite; English lops, hollands, and mini Rex. We eat eggs but not a ton and with my daughter wanting to do silkies for 4H I figured it was a win win. Thank you 😊

    What to do with a rooster when you don’t want fertile eggs all the time

    Thank you for being helpful. I really appreciate it. What is your opinion on bringing a rooster over when we would like chicks? My friend has about 40 silkies and I can borrow a rooster from her. We would incubate the eggs from the first ten days. The rest, I would give away to family members...

    What to do with a rooster when you don’t want fertile eggs all the time

    I’m not really sure yet. My daughter is starting 4H and wants to do the chicks for that. I have a friend that will incubate for her until she buys her own. I would imagine she’ll do a few short periods a year. I’m sorry I don’t have the answer to that question yet.

    I don’t eat meat and a fertile egg potentially is meat.

    What to do with a rooster when you don’t want fertile eggs all the time

    So I am getting 4 silkies soon (I’m a first time chicken mom) and I have questions about fertile and infertile eggs. I am a vegetarian so I can’t eat fertile eggs. The issue is that I do want babies just not all the time. What do I do with the male. These are the options I have come up with...
