Used to have a few but, like with eggs, was feast or famine.... Got tired of the cleaning (no wire bottomed cages) and the hot weather fly/parasite issues... Getting some things caught up now and came across some good solid cages (folding animal crates without the pans)that'll be easy to modify for rabbits... and I earmarked an area for a roof/windbreak instead of the barn so it should be a little more pleasant (for all) now. Thinking about hitting it again with a few.
What breeds have/has anyone found were the best choice (ease of keeping and productivity)?
Had in the past a couple of the giant breeds that would go 20-25 pounds but they just ate too much and took too long to hit butcher size on the downside but brought a good price on the + side when selling at 10 bucks a kg live weight (that's where the feast or famine came in tho)....
Any ideas/tips????
Thanks.
