SHOCKED! Calf Stuck in Electric Fence | Our Hurry to Save Her

[@WillowsDream]

Rabbits are burrowing foraging animals. They need hay daily for optimum health if you want them to be breeders. The reason these rabbits won't breed is because their physical and instinctual needs are not being met They need either enough hay/straw to burrow down in or a nesting box with some hay/straw to hide in and keep warm in the winter and yes even the males need to burrow. I grew up around rabbits so I do know about how to breed them. My grandfather raised pedigree show rabbits for 35 years. We also harvested and ate the ones that weren't show quality. Put a good bedding of hay/straw in with your rabbits and after a week or so with them being able to burrow then try breeding them and see the difference. I know it's not how Joel does it but these are for Lily and they deserve better than what Joel does.

[@Junkinsally]

Rabbits absolutely do not need daily hay. This a misconception. They need something to chew on daily, which can be a wooden stick(apple wood is excellent) or a root of some kind. Rabbits in the wild do not eat hay. Hay is good to combat boredom but they can thrive on pellet feed alone.

[@nanajack8527]

Sorry Justin but those rabbits need bedding if you are leaving them in cages. If their water is freezing imagine how cold that wire is getting and they have nowhere to shelter or bed down.

[@jenniferscotten1881]

Agree! I hope they see these comments. Poor bunnies!!

[@SadraBC]

Rabbits do very well in cold weather. Much better than they do in hot weather. They are fine.

[@helengarrett6378]

@@SadraBC but good to have something over the mesh. Many people donl't but people who feed hay and not just pellets feed Timothy and cover the mesh for comfort.

[@SadraBC]

Uh... No. If the wire gets covered in hay the poop starts piling up the whole thing gets filthy. Rabbits are sitting in poop... Everyone gets sick. It's not good.

[@WillowsDream]

@@SadraBC not without some kind of bedding. Do wild rabbits sit outside and sleep on the ground in the cold weather? No they do not, they burrow down underground and make nests that they line with grass and fur to keep them warm and safe from predators. These rabbits are constantly exposed with no way to nest. They would have no idea that wire is keeping them safe. Their instincts will tell them they are in danger while they have no where to hide. They will not breed while being kept like that.

[@wisewoman7906]

I raised rabbits for a few years in a hobby rabbitry. At one point, I had over 100 rabbits in about 60+ cages and hutches. They all had nest boxes even when not kindling. Solitary bucks were in cages, under cover, with lots of straw when it was cold. Mine were on 1/2" hardware cloth but never had sore hocks because of nest boxes with lots of straw. Rabbits are a little higher maintenance than pastured livestock. Their natural inclination is to dig a den, which is reproduced by straw in a nest box. Pregnant does can absorb a litter if they are frightened, or they will totally abandon a freshly kindled litter if they are frightened. They can also break their own backs if frightened badly enough, by running around looking for a hiding place, or by stomping their back feet if a threat is too close. I know you hold to minimal intervention with your livestock, Justin, but rabbits are in another category.

[@rkthing55]

I sincerely hope Justin reads your comments and improve their current cages.

[@SheriLatulip]

Best comment on knowledge ever. Hope it gets acknowledged.

[@Jan-and-Rob-TheTwilighters]

I could tell as soon as they purchased the rabbits and put them in those terrible terrible cages that these animals would either die, not breed or suffer terribly. I’ve unsubscribed from JR to stop seeing his woeful farming techniques in a lot of cases. His whole set up shrieks of HIGH MAINTENANCE. I just happened to see this one ….. I’m appalled.

[@christinedehn3257]

I've never had rabbits of my own, but had always heard that their teeth grow constantly so they need to have twigs and branches to gnaw on. If the teeth get too long they need to be seen by your vet and ground down so they can eat properly. Respect the innate rabbitness of the rabbits. Lots of good ideas from lots of viewers here. Good luck Lilly.

[@saritalejeune4960]

Yes I hope SOMEONE reads this wise advice! The "teacher" needs to be taught a thing or two!

[@Dee.C]

The rabbits need hay to burrow, nest in and nibble on even . They also need a board or something in the cage to rest on so they don't get sore hocks from being on the wire all the time.

Please please i am begging you to really look at enriching your rabbits lives by not keeping them in an open wire cage. Rabbits live underground for a reason and keeping them exposed like this must be so stressful for them. Happy Bunnies will give you more bunny babies. Also bunny babies need to be kept warm and in a nesting box at the very least. I admire you and your family so much becasue of the utmost care that you give most of your animals but for some reason you have choosen the most rabbit unfriendly environment. You could build a 2 story system that have nesting boxes at the top level and a wire caged bottom layer and the poop will still fall through. Bunnies don't tend to soil the space where they sleep.

[@rkthing55]

Good suggestion. And her brothers are handy with tools. I bet they could easily build boxes if Justin is too busy.

[@hoppas77]

THIS is THE BEST IDEA!!!

[@hoppas77]

They can hinge the lid for easy access too. . They do need hay every day and the 2nd level/wood box would also give them something to chew on to keep their teeth worn down which is very important. I'm sure the kids will love to have a building project as they seem to love to build. WIN-WIN for everyone.

[@alexandeurross4169]

You're going to need to put some kind of roof over the rabbits. A simple board, etc. Otherwise the chickens will go up there and poop on the rabbits. If that gets into their food/water, could make them quite sick.

They really should also have unlimited access to hay. Rabbits teeth never stop growing, and need the roughage of hay to keep them filed down.

[@jamesking1033]

Agreed with other commenters regarding the rabbits. Their set up really needs some revamping. I'm all about growing your own food, as we do too, but the rabbits have no stimulation, or enrichment. They live in bare steel wire cages.

[@ren2ski]

I rarely comment but I'm a bit confused as to the ehtos of raising and care of animals. ie. mentor Joel Salatin called on readers to ditch factory farming and the kinds of food systems and eating habits that don’t 'honour life'. He said we can honour the way animals and plants were designed to exist in nature ie. understand and embrace the “pigness of pigs” - and collectively raise our food in that vein. So why are rabbits not treated in this same way. Why are they treated (sorry I can't think of another example) like battery hens in sterile cages that hurt their feet/hocks... Geoff Lawton is co-housing rabbits with chickens in the Jordan Greening the Desert Project - apparently with success. Sorry I love rabbits they're so sweet and I imagine how I would feel if I was forced to live so outside the 'rabbitness of rabbits'. I raised rabbits for many years it was wonderful they're amazing. Utter respect to you and yours for your wonderful content and family I know it's not particularly smooth running a homestead but I hope you will consider the different perspectives.

[@user-iw7to6zx3w]

Hey Justin, Please give the rabbits a larger cage and especially not one with a grid floor! I understand that everything should be as efficient and easy to maintain as possible but that isn‘t really nice for these social and active animals. After all, your cows, pigs, sheep and chickens have it nice too. The rabbits also deserve something better. So I think it is not very difficult to see that the rabbits do not have a nice life in these circumstances. I am not against the breeding and slaughtering but I just think that they should be offered at least a reasonably good life and I think you agree with me. Thanks!

You need to put an alarm system on your fence so you get some alarm going off in the house or on your cell phone if not both when the fence goes off line or something is testing it making it send voltage on the fence.

[@luckyrobinshomestead]

Please make sure your chickens cannot get on top of your rabbit cages. They will poop on the rabbits and it is quite caustic to their fur. And once they have babies, you have to be super careful, because chickens will peck at baby rabbit feet from underneath once they get out of the nesting boxes. The one year we tried keeping them together we closed off the underside of cages to prevent that and put plastic corrugated roofing on top of the cages to prevent roosting, pooping chickens.
