Hi,
I'm new to meat rabbits and have some questions.
I have 2 does and 1 buck All NZB (New Zealand Black) I was told they are 100% NZB.
I'm told at 8 weeks they should weigh 5 lbs. Mine are coming in at under 3.
This is first litter and 7 in this litter.
I feed unlimited good quality hay,
And pellets to babies, and the adults I fee unlimited hay and 1/2 cup good quality pellets and Yet they all come in under 3 lbs. Is this due to first litter or maybe quality of breed ( am I saying that right)?
The kits are oddly colored. Is this normal when breeding two NZB (pure) ? (See pictures). I thought they would all come out primarily like the parents, all black.
Thank you for responding!
