I have a total of six. I got three (2 females and one male) from the LA chickenstock. They are of unknown age and pedigree. One female and the male is all white so I am assuming Cals but not sure if they are full. The other female is also white but with a greyish nose and ears. So I am assuming a mix of Cal and NZ. They were supposedly bred in Early November. But because they all came home in one cage I am unsure if they got rebred or if they are bred at all. They don't look bigger. I think I will wait till about a month after the chicken stock to rebreed them. I paid 12 bucks each.
I also got a trio from a Mississippi breeder. He routinely shows and has won a few awards. I got two Cal does and a NZ buck. They are all registered cause they came with numbers and are tattooed. The male was born in April and the females in July and in August. I paid 20 each
The difference is very slight I feel like the Mississippi bunnies are heavier although they look smaller and I think they are younger. They feel denser. The male is definitely heavier. I am glad I got the two sets that way if a girl won't produce well then.... to freezer camp... and I think the LA boy....to freezer camp.
I built my own hutches. I bought the cages from Bass they are all 30 x36. This should give them enough room to move around and be happy. I then built a structure to keep them off the ground and out of the sun. There are three cage to each structure. The structure was built out of recycled wood. and the roof in the undulating plastic stuff. Not sure it will hold up in a hurricane though.
Well Thank for all your guys is help.... I will post more when I get babies....
