HadHow are they on cost per lb if they are meat bunnies? I am interested in raising a few for meat. Teach me....lol

That's her, and another just like her beside her. They are actually San Juan/Salatin mixes, with just a touch of Chinchilla in there too. I breed them to an American Chinchilla buck, and so far they have had litters of 9 and 10. The kits grow a bit slower than say New Zealand, but they finish out in a tractor(pastured) just fine at about 10 weeks. I don't usually analyze cost, because that isn't my objective. I got them from an all-organic farm, and I just got a starter herd of New Zealand from a more traditional rabbit farmer, but the Nz haven't had kits for me yet. I have mostly dual purpose animals on my little farm, with a few fancies thrown in, and I'd be happy to help you get started in bunnies if you'd like.
