I never scruff my rabbits ever, I even wince if a judge scruffs them.
I just don't like it, what is worse is when people pick their rabbits up by the loin
There is absolutely nothing wrong with picking up young rabbits
by the loin, providing that your hand is large enough and strong enough
to hold the rabbit securely without dropping it.
Many breeders will lift weanlings by the loin/hindquarter.
I have never seen nor heard of any problem being caused by doing so.
Hey, everybody has their own way of doing things. Neither is right nor wrong,
just different. We have to learn to accept the fact that others
may not always believe or think as you do. If the action created difficulties
you can be assured that they would soon be discontinued.
