I am new to meat rabbits. I use to have english angora which are a whole list of different care needs. These meat rabbits don't seem to need much compared to the angora. I am seeing a lot of wire cages and nest boxes is there a reason this seems to be preferred housing? I am just raising small scale for my family and extended family. When I drew a picture of what I wanted built I did a little box they could always have. The box is divided so she has room in the event she becomes cold or spooked that is separated from her nest area. The divider is high enough it should knock the kits off if she leaves with an attached one. She had a litter of 12 last night. It's my first meat rabbit litter. The whole bottom is wire I have it stuffed with hay. Will I run into issues with this type of housing? Should I be using all wire cages with a nest box? I am trying to upload photos but I can't seem to get them to attach... got em. Also do these kits look greenish? I keep thinking their color seems odd.
