    Florida White Meat Rabbits

    Hi, Thanks for your post - I just got a trio of FW from a great breeder in Fresno. Looking forward to raising these, I had Tans before and just don't like having to deal with scratched up arms!!!! Plus the FW will be great for meat too. I appreciate your feedback!

    What's your least favorite breed?

    I have a mixed laying flock and really have no use for my Salmon Favorelle- she is noisy, lays small eggs and went broody already! Don't appreciate this breed, maybe they taste good?
