A farmer who farms for meat, my golden rule is treat the animals with the most respect you can give them. After all, you are sacrificing their life for your own gain. Just treat them better.
so what could she do? plants are also living and as you eat them you put an end to ones life. I appreciate this lady. she is brave enough to face the paradox you are living with
My argument for the hay debate is that as a veterinary professional, one of the things I learned is that the small animals like rabbits have very fast metabolisms and need constant access to something they can chew and eat. This keeps the gut moving and helps their biome thrive. It also helps them be stable for stressful events like surgery. Obviously we can't do straight pellets free fed for full-grown dry adults, so things like hay and wood shavings work well as a low calorie, low cost way to achieve this goal. Love that you brought up the survive vs. thrive mentality!
I tend to think rabbits are close to horses in their eating behavior...80 percent roughage to 20 percent concentrate ....and they don't do well at diet changes..... abruptly.....
Yes, please do a medical supply video. Medication for rabbits is a rare topic on UA-cam, and often the internet as a whole. Your videos are always so educational.
I agree....we need more information on such things.....most of us are animal people and have relationships with vet's....and are able to get the meds we need if we know what people use..
I love this video! I especially love the wooden stacker system you have. I have been OBSESSING over the rabbit adventure I want to start. I have been running hypothetical numbers, thinking about how I could lay out a rabbit set up, and what it would cost to start up. I am like you, in a way. My sister and I raised dutch and mini rex rabbits up until the time I graduated high school. We would sell big bags of droppings for $10 (in the 2000s that was a prerty good price) I would make a starter wire cages that could be attached to four T posts, and we would sell rabbits with the cages as a bundle. My dad would make the dropping trays. It was a pretty fun business for a teen! I quit when I started dating my now husband but we are looking in to meat and showmanship rabbits again, now that our son is in 4-h and our daughter will be in cloverbuds next year.
Thanks Tiffany, this is very helpful. You make breeding rabbits so beautiful and interesting. My children and I have learnt a lot from your videos. We just had a new litter this morning...🥰
As a young boy I experienced the aggressiveness of fighting bucks. The powerful jaws and teeth are large and sharp, the legs are strong and powerful with cutting sharp claws, and they are fearless fighters. I got knocked down and mauled badly enough with a trip to the emergency room for stitches and I have mighty big battle scars.
Perfect timing! We just purchased a trio of Americans and they arrive at the end of the month. We have been studing so many rabbit videos but having all the information in one place in a new video helps tremendously!
Thank you for this video, my wife and I are buying our first meat rabbits today, and this has been very helpful. We will probably be basing our entire process for raising them off of your videos, so thank u so much. Good looking rabbits ya got there 😊
I was so excited to see this was your video topic this week! I am still in my research phase, and your videos are always so informative. I can't wait to start with meat rabbits. You give me confidence I can do this for my family. The medical supply video would be a great topic for a video. Thank you!!
Tiffany your videos are literally the best please don't ever quit you helped me butcher my first rabbit and breed my first rabbits and tattoo my first rabbits I show California's and overall you have help me so much when it comes to meat pen and overall everything
I loved this video!!!! Really helps. A med supply video would be great!! Thanks for making these videos every week. Best videos out there on rabbits!!! We are getting creme d argent rabbits this year!!
I just got and setup about 3 weeks ago, gravity bowl water-ers… it’s allot to swap out water daily. This makes life super easy. I just tip over the bowl after using a brush to clean it to flush it out. They are 1 gallon GWF’s and last a good 7 days. I just keep there hay bowl full. Easier to manage
Today I found your channel. It's been a blessing! I just started with 2 but I plan to grow and this video has been very educational. Yea please make a video about medication! God bless 😊😊😊
I've been watching your videos and have learned so much. Just got my first trio consisting of a Red New Zealand buck and two Red New Zealand / Champagne D'argent does. Built a hutch system very similar to your original and will be making grow-out tractors similar to yours this fall when I start breeding them. Thank you for the wealth of information and the great-quality videos!
Yes please do a medical supply video! We just started our rabbitry in January and are already dealing with ear mites and nest box eye. I would love some suggestions for medical supplies!
I personally really like to use stainless steel dog bowls as feed bowls! The rabbits can’t chew them like with plastic bowls and they stay pretty clean and don’t harbor bacteria as much!
Please do make a med supply video! I have been following you since last summer, I still don't have meat rabbits, but you are slowly convincing me to think twice about creme d'argents!
Love your videos. They are just sp fun to watch and very informative too. Im always curious how you train your rabbits to like being carried as my Neatherland Dwarfs hates it when I try to carry them.
Just found your site. Love it! I am a 4H Rabbit project leader, and I'm always looking for sites that explain how to... in a way that young kids can understand. Not only are your recommendations spot on, but they are great for first-time breeding/show rabbits. I look forward to reviewing other videos from you. I'm in California, so my weather is a little different, but we adapt. Ty
I have a NewZealand red hair for a pet, and your videos have helped me with taking proper care for him. I could never imagine eating him tho. 11:38 Or any rabbit for that matter. But it’s nice that you help others with that too.
I’ve had rabbits for two years - I find you provide LOTS of useful information! I appreciate your efforts to educate us. Agree with comments that you are a natural at teaching. I applaud your manner of keeping the rabbits - clean, safe and in a protected environment. Many rabbitries seem to be open to wind, rain and predators. I knew mine were safe when a pack of coyotes came by - bunnies are caged, 4’ off the ground and locked inside a predator-proof screened chicken run. I need to find more info on mntc. That bunny fur leaves the cages & sticks to the hardware cloth screens of the chicken run, ugh. I wonder if a wet-dry vacuum is the way to suck that mess outta there? Thank you for the inspiration of your video. I’m motivated!
I really like your nest boxes, matter fact I googled rabbit nesting box and it gave me your video. I made 4 of them and I need to replace them soon. The reason a like your nesting boxes you don’t need chew toys.
Tiffany, I'm grateful to have stumbled onto your channel. I'm still doing my due diligence in raising rabbits for meat. This is the first video of yours that I've watched and you packed it with great information. I wish you continued success with your homestead and channel.
A medical tips and setup video would be great. My wife's grandfather raised rabbits in France theough WWII, and I wonder what plants and natural remedies he employed. He raised them for decades afterwards, but sadly I was not interested in such topics back when I could have asked him. Great video, you obviously have a wealth of knowledge and experience!
Hi i have watched most of your videos and i am really very inspired. I have also brought my first pair of rabbits. I have a lot to say and appreciate you but that would make this comment too long, truly you are the most inspiring women i follow. I have a question , Many of my friends said rabbit urine smells a lot, i don't have a seperate barn . my rabbit hutch is in my back yard under a shed which is not so far from my parents room, i am afraid if it strats to smell, i may have to get rid of them. I just want to know how does it goes in your barn, does it smell or not, if not how do you get rid of the smell? Please reply, ( only an experienced person can guide me through this problem ig)
Thank you for the amazing video!!! I'm doing research before I start doing meat rabbits and this video was super helpful. I'm a new follower to your channel, once again thank you.
Hello!! Thank you so much for posting this, it helps a lot! You responded to my question on another video about what good veggies you can grow for rabbits as an alternative to pellets...i really appreciate it!! Is there a way to buy rabbits that you sell? I would love to buy a creme d'argent doe breeder 🙂...oh, and you should definitely do a video on med supplies 😊...thank you so much! God bless!! ❤
Hey there! Sales are hard for me because I have so many inquiries and not a lot of rabbits available most of the time 😅 you should come to Creme d’Argent nationals next month, or ARBA convention in Louisville, KY in October. That would be the best place to network with breeders 😊
Will you be at either of them? That would literally be the coolest thing to meet you 😁...sorry if that's creepy lol...you are literally my favorite channel ever 😅
At 18:55 you show a doe using a little doorway. I'd love to see how you safely made it. I'm certain I'm 100% overthinking it, but cutting my cages makes me nervous! Plus I'd like one I could close off when needed. As for the subject of hay, I don't think loose hay would work for me. How do you feel about hay cubes?
I was wondering if you could follow up your thought on why you like to hold onto your crème d’argent babies as long as 20 weeks. You mentioned that they’re rare and you like to grow them out as long as possible as such- do you mean before you harvest for fur or so you have more time to find a buyer?
I've been learning from you for years and really appreciate your channel! I have been looking for a video by you on how to tan rabbit hides and can't seem to find one. Would you consider doing a video on this?
Could you do a video on different foods to feed rabbits? I did see your superfood mix, but would like to know what greens, veggies, etc, and the nutritional value behind it like you did with the treats. I see a lot of mixed answers online about feeding kale and stuff and would like to hear your opinion since you have been raising them so long, and they seem natural and healthy. Thanks. 😊
Greetings from Kansas, OK. I always enjoy your videos. They are very informative for me, a new meat rabbit breeder. I have a silver Fox doe and have raised her from birth. Josey is 1 yr 3 mo. I bred her on 9/28. At day 25, I put her nest box in and set it up based on your instruction. She immediately began hay stashing and building her nest. That was very hopeful. Today is the beginning of day 33. No kits yet and no fur pulling. Have you experienced this behavior from a first time mom? How many days more should I give her? Looking forward to your suggestions. Thanks again for your great instruction.
What about using Rabbit Trackers or something similar to keep your rabbit in during the warmer months and a cage set up for the winter months. I live in New Brunswick, Canada…so the winters up here can get pretty harsh
@tealstonehomestead what do you do for the heat of summer in keeping them cooled down enough? I realize state to state is different but just overall 😊 Any tips would be great!!
Im about to switch from New Zealand/Californians to Silver Fox. My question is, is it better to start with the trio, a buck and two does OR two bucks and two does?
Hi Tiffany! Thanks so much for the info! I'm really struggling on deciding a manure management setup. I'm really surprised you said you only have to empty your Trays every 3-4 weeks! Do you do anything to control odor/flies? Or does rabbit manure not have that issue?
Thank you Tiffany for sharing your knowledge and experience raising rabbits. Are your champagne d’Argent bunnies for sale and do you ship to different state?
I know this is off topic, but I was wondering if you ever thought about breeding the crenes to a white angora for long silvery pelts? Wonder if that would cause you to have broken colors?
This might seem a little novice sounding but I'm still having trouble holding my rabbits properly. I have 2 mini rexes and no matter what I do they're always floppy around like a fish trying to unalive themselves. Any helpful advice would be amazing! Thank you! 😅
For rabbits that are uncomfortable being held, I do the “football” hold with them. Both feet supported in my arms and head tucked under my arm so they can’t see anything. This helps them calm down and feel supported.
A farmer who farms for meat, my golden rule is treat the animals with the most respect you can give them. After all, you are sacrificing their life for your own gain. Just treat them better.
meat is a meat....you talking as if you don't eat fish.
so what could she do? plants are also living and as you eat them you put an end to ones life. I appreciate this lady. she is brave enough to face the paradox you are living with
How about not killing these lovely creatures in the first place

Very well stated!
I tend to think rabbits are close to horses in their eating behavior...80 percent roughage to 20 percent concentrate ....and they don't do well at diet changes..... abruptly.....
Yes plz on med supplies
As a “veterinary professional” the fact that you are giving this person advice is despicable. Rot.
@@kirstengriffith7221 ??
Yes, please do a medical supply video. Medication for rabbits is a rare topic on UA-cam, and often the internet as a whole. Your videos are always so educational.
I agree....we need more information on such things.....most of us are animal people and have relationships with vet's....and are able to get the meds we need if we know what people use..
I love this video! I especially love the wooden stacker system you have. I have been OBSESSING over the rabbit adventure I want to start. I have been running hypothetical numbers, thinking about how I could lay out a rabbit set up, and what it would cost to start up. I am like you, in a way. My sister and I raised dutch and mini rex rabbits up until the time I graduated high school.
We would sell big bags of droppings for $10 (in the 2000s that was a prerty good price)
I would make a starter wire cages that could be attached to four T posts, and we would sell rabbits with the cages as a bundle. My dad would make the dropping trays.
It was a pretty fun business for a teen! I quit when I started dating my now husband but we are looking in to meat and showmanship rabbits again, now that our son is in 4-h and our daughter will be in cloverbuds next year.
yes please do a medical or other supply video! Love how you share - thank you!
I’d love to see a Med supply video! AND a tour again of all the rabbits currently have and their names! It’s been a while 🥰
Excellent video! You are such a natural at teaching! Very practical advice and I really appreciate your explanations! Thank You!
Where “How-to” books go to die!😆Great vid! This should be required viewing for anyone wanting to get into rabbits.
lol! I love my homesteading books too! 😆
This is super! I am from Mobile AL.. and I like rabbits. Some day soon I hope to start a small rabbitry like yours but small.
Thanks Tiffany, this is very helpful. You make breeding rabbits so beautiful and interesting. My children and I have learnt a lot from your videos. We just had a new litter this morning...🥰
As a young boy I experienced the aggressiveness of fighting bucks. The powerful jaws and teeth are large and sharp, the legs are strong and powerful with cutting sharp claws, and they are fearless fighters.

As for the subject of hay, I don't think loose hay would work for me. How do you feel about hay cubes?
Hay cubes don't provide the same fiber content and enrichment. They also tend to be more expensive. Lose hay is definetly the way to go!

Pine shavings and/or hay or straw 🙂
