lorelei0922 2 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Just thought i'd post some pics of the kiddies... the first litter is 3 weeks old .. and ready to try a bit of FOOD! So we decided to see how they'd take to a bit of food today.. and BOY was it a success! Saffie has a half saddle of Rabbit for breakfast and So with no further ado.. here we go ... Dinner for 10! Saff deposited the Kits back into nest with their saddle O' Rabbit... which mum graciously let them keep after a few squabbles and repositioning Have a great day until Next time Quote Link to post

lorelei0922 2 Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Great! Nice to start them off as you mean to go on. Exactly.. i'm finding the need to do a lil whole food education for those pet homes that have reserved kits... but as they've seen how mine enjoy their raw meat and how white the bones keep their teeth... and explaining how healthy it is for them... i'm hoping even they will go home to continue a raw meat diet too.. and there's no denying they are enjoying it lol Quote Link to post
Guest jojoamojo Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 mine dont have rabbit, i cant get rabbit here, they have day old chicks, raw wings and beef mince along with their kibble i must say the nicest kit i ever had is a copper hob from a worker last year, he was fed on whole pheasants and rabbits from aged 4 weeks, he is a beast and one of the biggest ferrets i own and has a lovely temprament Quote Link to post
The one 8,592 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Nice litter and nice to see them getting a proper diet Quote Link to post

stubby 175 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 my litter of five, now 32 days old, one jill has an eye open, normally the jill hoardes the evening rabbit in a corner to herself, this evening, a kitt jill, with eye's still shut came wandering out and clamped onto a piece that mum was chewing, with that, she dropped the piece, took another from the bowl, and gave it to the 4 in the sleeping box, deffo a joy to watch, Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Some good pictures there. Start them as they mean to go, Nice 1. None of mine are ready for their first bit of meat as of yet but it wont be long now. Quote Link to post

She's been fine with me close by and handling her kits.. perhaps its just knowing your jill... thanks for the advice though and the wish of good luck!
