Hi guys, thought id show you a couple of pics of my portable rabbitry at the urban home i have.
In the first pic, in the far left and right cages i have mature bucks, left, New Zealand white buck, right, NZ white x Californian.
In the middle two bays i have a heap of does growing out for breeding. and in the cage next door i have a young buck raising up for breeding also. Those are Giant Flemish x with the NZ white buck on the far left.
In pic 2 i have two pregnant does. A mother and a daughter. 1 is a Giant Flemish x NZ white and the other is a Giant flemish/NZ white X NZ white.
They are 3 meat rabbit breeds although you can eat any breed of rabbit. These are the 3 which put weight on quickly and come to a good size.
Also, i use all of their droppings for fertilizer on the garden as rabbit droppings are one of the only droppings you can put straight into a garden without it burning the plants and needing composting for a while first.
