    Hydrogen peroxide is a fantastic disinfectant especially when youre disinfecting fragile things. It’s my go to disinfectant when doing tissue culture. With tissue culture, it’s vital to completely sterilize plant tissue without killing the plant tissue. Peroxide has always proven to be the least invasive but in my experience, also the most effective.

    Even in the wild, per few acres, ALL wild rabbits are inbred. Rabbits have very small area of their whole entire lives, and they dont get to buy a train ticket to a different area. So - within an any given area, they are ALL related. The ones with wrong recesive genes simply dont make it. Become food for others. Only the best survive long enough to breed. Thanks for the grooming lesson. Advice- work with wet hands but have a bucket ready for quick rinses- works for me.

      I’m sorry 😕 If they’re warm and still not moving then they’ve passed. The blood pooling doesn’t always easily show. But if they don’t come back once they’re warm then they’re not going to. It’s only if they’re still cold that there’s a chance that they might not be dead yet.

      It’s hard to tell just based on your comment. Baby rabbits can be different colors at birth depending on what color they will be when they grow up. And mama rabbits only feed their babies once or twice per day, so they may be feeding them and you’re not seeing it. Unfed babies are skinny and wrinkly.

    • @ElbonMillFarm
      @ElbonMillFarm 5 місяців тому

      No. Eggs left under a broody hen are exposed to bacteria unlike eggs hatched in a sterile incubator. So they need to keep the bloom or cuticle as a protective barrier to bacteria. This only works for eggs in sterile environments.

    We just lost our first litter and I tried your techniques. If I found them sooner I’m sure they would’ve survived. She had a pretty good nest with fur and used that and a blanket vs the box I had for her. We had a cold snap so I think it was that because the day before she was feeding them and they were crying and jumping around:( hard to tell with it being her first though because some were pushed out of the near and she was just taking care of one. How long after the loss do you breed again? I have other rabbits but I want to give her another chance after her loss. And also, do you bring them indoors when it’s colder? Or use a heat lamp? Thanks

    • @ElbonMillFarm
      @ElbonMillFarm 10 місяців тому

      Sorry about your loss 🙁Depending on why I bred her in the first place, I will often breed again just a couple days after she loses the litter if she’s interested. I don’t normally bring them inside during the winter. If I know I have does due during a super cold snap, like less than 20F, I may bring her into an unheated building until after she kindles just to be sure they don’t freeze before she finishes giving birth. But I’ll move them back out once she’s done and they’re warm and fed.

    By the way I have 10 laying hens and 1 rooster all White Leghorn. My incubator is one of those yellow ones that turns the eggs for you and I think it holds 120 chicken eggs...but I plan to just try with about 40 or 50 eggs since we have already collected enough eggs for eating. I too am looking forward to your response.

    • @ElbonMillFarm
      @ElbonMillFarm Рік тому

      So what I do is store hatching eggs in a cool room of my house, point side down, and I shift the eggs multiple times per day until I’m ready to incubate. Because I hatch a large number of eggs, I actually use two of the electric egg turners that you put in styrofoam hatchers. That way I don’t have to shift the eggs manually. Back when I didn’t have as many eggs though, I would put the eggs in an egg carton, point side down, and raise one end of the carton with a book or something. Then I would come move the book to the other end. And again before bed I would shift it back. Then the next morning I would start the process over by shifting to the opposite side. By doing an odd number of shifts during the day, you are alternating which end of the carton is raised each night. I hatch weekly normally so all my eggs are 7 days old or less. If however I was holding eggs for more than a week for hatching, I would keep them no more than 10 days to ensure they’re fresh and have the highest likelihood of hatching.

    So refreshing to see an actual real life vid, not some airy fairy "we livin the dream" thing by wanna be's. I've travelled through Asia a lot, chickens everywhere, and not an anti biotic/tick/whatever, treatment in sight. I run a "heritage" breed, I made the mistake of going to a "poultry show" ye gods those things wouldn't last 5 min's at my place, Sure I lose the odd one to eagles (usually the rooster defending his girls) and every now and then one gets sick (and dies, with no trip to the vet) survival of the fittest. Harsh? depends on your point of view. Mine are old school multi purpose, lay quite a few eggs (not a heap) and have enough meat to make a good roast chook (not a big lump of breast meat) but the flavour is what chicken used to taste like. I love it, the kids complain about the lack of white tasteless "breast" that they are accustomed to, ahh such is life.
