It's only been a month. Maybe I should give it more time. Maybe I'm being to reactive. But I just can't do it anymore.
I spent 4 hours today cleaning out the colony. It was very nice to have all that mulch to put directly on my potatoes, but it was also 4 hours I don't really have every month or more.
No one warned me how vicious rabbits are. They're mean to each other! This wasn't in any of the books or guides I read!! What attracted me to colonies was how "natural" it is. If this is how rabbits are naturally...no way. They can live unnaturally.
It might work for some. I've come to realize it isn't going to work for my herd. There are too many unknowns, and I need to make this as efficient as possible.
We're working on plans to build a hutch system similar to this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSBTvEXNQ2s Any input would be appreciated.
