so i've had rabbits most of my life, raised a few different breeds, but man, Rex are my ponies! lol they are a good general purpose rabbit, good meat, excellent fur and personalities have been great :) there are 17 different recognized colours and countless others lol.

heres a bit of my set up i use stacker cages:

most are 36" long, 24" deep, some are divided into 2 holes per level(good for singles) or 1 hole per level(good for litters), i like j feeders top fill water bottels (with clam shells because some are stupid), and hay racks to try and keep it clean.

resting mats are key

Those are beautiful Syble! I love your setups as well! to be honest im not sure exactly why those pics are not showing up right. i double checked and tried to fix them.... im sure you did it right, ???

edit... i see whats going on here... fixing it for ya ;-)

All fixed, but i gotta admit not exactly sure how these were uploaded, well the stacker pic wasnt in the attachments, maybe you deleted it but still had the link for it, i dont know pretty weird but its all there now. :racer:

Gorgeous, sadly me and bunny fur don't get along! I cuddle for awhile and go very pink. I used to have a pair of orange rex rabbits in the UK and had to cull them because they were sad terrified things. Later I found out the line was prone to brain tumours and the lady was still breeding them - go figure. Sad lesson when you're a teenager.

Oh how I wish I wasn't so allergic to them!

Stubborn me raised Netherland Dwarfs as a kid despite barely being able to breathe around them. Fast forward to a few years ago and getting a mini Rex for the kid thinking I'd grown out of it...nope I lasted about a week with it in the back laundry room before it had to be evicted to a room in the barn.

So, I'll just have to enjoy the pictures of them from the rest of you!
