I'm raising Satin rabbits, and I'm going to have a bunch of pelts (mostly as a byproduct of meat). I've done some genetics research, and I think they will be mostly black and brown. Does anyone have any idea what Satin pelts go for?

That is going to depend on the market in your area..also the size and condition as well as the type of tanning...lots of factors..
I don't know what the market is like, and the kits aren't even born yet, so I have no idea what the size/condition will be like 
. Does anyone have any examples of what they're selling pelts for? Even if they aren't satin pelts.

Before the Europeans came to North America the indigenous people dyed quills and used them to create beautiful works of art. After the Europeans arrived, bead work became popular.
Check out some of this lovely quill work:

Found this site a few months ago.
It's a very interesting site, and was one of the reasons why I decided to go into rabbits. I wanted the meat, but also didn't want anything going to waste. At this point I have a use for feet, skulls, ears, fur, inner-eds, bunny berries, and meat. If I left anything out let me know? :lol:
