We are so excited to get our rabbitry going! We bought some Californians and one was pregnant when we bought her about 8 weeks ago. Her first litter was unexpected and on the wire. One of the kits crawled out of the cage and onto the ground with our chickens. He had his rear leg broken and we feared he wouldn't make it. After considering antibiotics or culling, we let him develop and mom's milk helped him fight off the infection. Now, Tiny Tim is doing great and we are about to rebreed mom again. We also have a Rex litter due in 2 days. We use Bobby's spreadsheet for our breeding schedule and are hoping to have filled cages soon! Thanks for all you do Bobby!
Thanks for taking the time to write your comment and share your experiences. I very much appreciate it! Best of luck with your Rabbitry!
Jacaranda tree leaves, mulberry leaves, calendula flowers and leaves and sweet potato vines are great fodder too. The sweet potato's even benefit from being cut back regularly, it makes the tubers bigger.
Thanks so much for sharing!
How are those guys so chill with you carrying them and on the table. Mine are running in the air.!
lol idk they seem to be very relaxed dont they. it’s peaceful where they’re raised, there’s not many noises or disturbances. Maybe that helps. thanks for watching!

thank you for your business!
You mentioned some folks having to AI rabbits due to difficulty breeding... The 3 meat does i have came from a lady who was unsuccessful at breeding for over a year, even though she was experienced with rabbits and also changed out the buck at some point... I took them over, and I have them in a colony, where the three plus my flemish giant have 76 square feet of space in a full-height building and the buck has his own stall, 20 square feet. As soon as the days started lengthening and getting warmer, these girls bred, and they all have healthy litters now! I don't believe in battery cages, in fact i hate the idea, which is why I got into raising my own chickens! When we got into quail, we built a 6x8 building with attached 15x40 aviary, and had zero issues with scalping etc like you get with caged quail, and we were running between 45 and 60 at a time, sometimes up to a third being male! If you're having issues with breeding, throw the cage to the side and try a more spacious, communal and NATURAL setup :)
That’s certainly one approach, but it does present some challenges. First, let me say, thank you for taking the time to write your comment and share your experience.
I’ve run into the same situation, purchasing rabbits from farms that have trouble with breeding but in my experience, it was due to infertile bucks, not keeping rabbits, shaded/cool, and comfortable. Here’s a video I shared about ditching cages(talks about some of the challenges and why folks still raise rabbits in cages) but at the end of the day you should raise rabbits they way it makes sense to you. ruclips.net/video/MikAVg3cccE/видео.htmlfeature=shared
My rabbits love jers artichoke tubers. Another one i grow for rabbits is cup plant, a native perennial
thanks so much for taking the time to share your comment!
Thankyou for that info. Just to check.. are you referring to the
Silphium perfoliatum plant that has cup like leaves and a yellow daisy like flower? Native to Nth America.
@@nellieblighhill4575 yes
Love your videos Bobby! I always learn so much. What do you do to keep down flies and mosquitoes from your hutch? I know good sanitation practice is one thing but do you use natural plants or organic means to control pests like that?
you can prevent flies by keeping your manure in check make sure you’re regularly removing it to your compost pile. You can hang fly traps. You also can spray mosquito repellent (don’t tear any greens that have been sprayed) around your hutch and use mosquito dunks in watering holes. You could try to use some plants that may deter insects but rabbits have a sensitive sense of smell as well. Best case scenario is screening in the Rabbitry hutch, but that’s something most of us will never entertain. best of luck!
The babies need to be with their mother until they are at least 8wks old. In some States they can't be sold before 8wks by Law. In the beginning they need to get the Colostrum from their mother for development. At the end they get the Cecotropes from their mother for Gut health.
He said that wild cotton tails wean at three weeks... and from personal observation of the rabbit tracks throughout our property during snow season, I believe it - we see bunches of baby tracks nowhere near the adult tracks we find, so I don't see any reason NOT to sell kits as of 5 or 6 weeks, especially since they're already completely weaned by their moms at that point. Other animals, like puppies, kittens and piglets are sold while they're still nursing (8 weeks), yet no-one is out there screaming that these species need to stay with mom until 12-16 weeks 🤷♀️
well, you’re certainly gonna wean your rabbits before you sell them you want them to be weaned for at least a week or two before selling because of the stress that causes the rabbit.
I don’t recommend Selling any younger than 8 weeks. That can cause a Rabbit a lot of stress, unless selling with a littermate this helps the move even when selling rabbits around two months, I still recommend to the new owners to keep their environment as stress-free as possible.
As far as weaning and nursing goes, colostrum comes before cecotropes, but rabbits will start eating cecotropes in the nesting box before their eyes are even open -around two months old they’ll start to produce their own cecotropes. If you’re interested, we share more information on rabbits health in this video. ruclips.net/video/67U3tWyW_Wg/видео.htmlfeature=shared

One of my does just kindled and expecting the next any day. I’m planning on holding off breeding until the first of September. Then breed every 6-7 weeks through next spring. Then another break in the summer. Do you feel like that’s a good plan? I breed for meat.
sure! thanks for asking! We all have different breeding programs.
Try your best to feed a disciplined diet so your rabbits stay in great shape for breeding in the future. best of luck!
@@TheRabbitryCenter thanks! I try to follow all your feeding suggestions and they seem to be doing very well.
How do you keep your rabbit so darn calm? Do you breed in the heat of this summer?
I breed some doe’s through the winter and summer using kindling totes. This video shares more info.

Thank you Bobby, for all your information
