Just one of our many hard working does, I have a meat rabbits, and they are a mix of some of the most common meat breeds, my does average six to ten little ones per litter, I underbreed them by asking them to only have a litter every two months in the spring/summer/fall, giving them the main hard part of winter off.. If I followed the rabbit book, I would breed them back to back but they would only live a “breeding life” for max of two years, and my way, I have four coming five year old does that are still producing lovely litters as healthy as can be.. I am very fond of my pointed rabbits, but I adore my Black or orange broken backs.. got a new solid blue grey female doe that I am looking to keep back, she has the build I look for in a young female with a excellent temperment..

On average the rabbits with the best temperment, tend to be the males, only maybe one out of five times, when I flip to sex a really sweet friendly bun, will it be a girl and I try hard to keep them for breeders.
