I got 3 meat mutts from someone who's been doing meat rabbits for awhile now, but I'm a little concerned about their sizes. The does I have are 4 and 5 months old, respectively, but I don't think they weigh much more than 5 pounds. They told me the younger one is a new zealand, but she's a mottled brown color, the other is a new zealand/Rex cross. Are they way undersized for their breeds? Or do I just need to wait for them to mature a little more?
Update I just went and weighed them all, the 4 month nz is 2 lb, the 5 month nz/rex is 3 lb, and the 9 month nz/satin buck is 6 lbs. Any reason why they would be this small?
