Meat Rabbits

Awesome. I'm hoping to feen them without depending on commercial feed. Any resources with good information?

You could get advice on how to do that from very old rabbit manuals. Look for them on eBay.

Where did you get him? That color is pretty common

A local lady that raises and sals animals. They seem healthy and well cared for.
I am completely new to rabbits. I think i had one at 4 years old for about a week before my foster parents dog ate it. My husband had a couple rabbits as a kid but doesn't know much either. We are reading up and asking questions about what we need to do for them etc.

If they're not a show breeder, it's likely a cross. Is it in your possession or one you were looking at buying?

I have 8 of them that are all similar. Two are the silver/grey color and the rest are the brown. They are litter mates

Are you looking to eat the rabits? Or just want to figure out the breed?

See if you can grab the scruff. If it's not very easy to get a handful, I would bet there is some New Zealand not too far in the bloodlines
