  1. Thanks mate I think I'll take your advice. I keep their cage and run spotless so hopefully she'll be ok and come out of season soon. I presume it's the darker nights and cooler weather that knocks them out of it?
  2. Thanks all for all the good replies, his balls have definitely gone back in side. I'm going to try the few days in solitary and see if that works first, if not, its to the vets.
  3. My best Jill had a litter this season. All the kits have now gone apart from the one I kept back for myself. When the kits were weaned I put the jill back in with my vasectomized hob and my other two jills. At this point she wasn't in season but the hob humped he silly for quite a while and then calmed down. Anyway, I now notice she's been come into season again and has been for about two weeks. Now the hob doesn't appear to by serving her at all and she therefore remains in season. I'm genuinely thinking of taking her for the jab on this occasion as it looks like the hob isn't going to
  4. Mid-October or early November for me, prefer the cold days and less vegetation.
  5. I use a tarp pinned down with a couple of logs on top of the hutch and the stretched to the ground at a 45 degree angle and pinned down at the ground with a couple of other logs, it allows shade but air can still circulate. Also in the big run I put a big bowl of water with stones in it, it seems to encourage them to dip their heads under to retrieve the stones. Even the kits enjoy dipping their heads in that.
  6. Sory to hear that mate, like Arry says it always stings when you loose one of the little fuzz balls
  7. Very sorry to hear that mate, very sad.
