RABBITS...RABBITS.....AND MORE RABBITS

Post by spurs73 »

Well.....I am now in the rabbit business!!! I bought 4 does and 1 buck. They are San Jaun/Florida Cottontail cross (Knotheads). Two of the does are due to have a litter on March 3rd!!! Went back yesterday and bought 2 more does and 1 more buck. Now I have 6 does ( 3 are having litters next week and 3 were bred yesterday) and 2 bucks. If you want rabbits for a pen or trials just call or shoot me an email and I will let you know what I have. 662 224 4017 or smason@magnoliaenrgy.us Located in North Mississippi

Here is a pic of one of the does (They weigh about 8 to 10 pounds each!!!)

That's a nice looking set-up you have. It looks like from the bottom pic you've got an automatic watering system. When I was raising I often thought about doing that to save time, but just never got around to it. Since I didn't have running water where my hutch was, I was going to use a 55 gallon barrel and pvc to make a gravity flow system.

This is the setup to have if you are raising rabbits.
