Good afternoon! I raise NZs. Started with a trio of blues, but with line breeding was getting too many stray white hairs and white toenails so I brought in a black NZ buck and a doe, and then a NZ blue buck from a different breeder. My original trio of blues and their offspring had great coats...

We breed NZ. Solid blues and blacks. My first 3 rabbits were blues that threw blue and REW....no matter how line bred they were. My original blues have an even coat length with great sheen and fly back. Started getting white nails so brought in a black doe and black buck. They have more stabdard...

We found by brining the rabbit before cooking it, makes it super tasty and juicy. Use about 2 quarts of water to 2T salt and 1/4 brown sugar then whatever fresh herbs from garden. Let sit in brine for about 2 to 4 hours. Juicy even BBQd.

Whoa......I had not realized it would take that long with gas. I'm going to have to slow him this post. I would not want them to suffer...and that seems like suffering.

We just starated breeding. First doe, her first litter was 10 with one runt who died....we then lost 2 more ( I think heart attacks from my son and friends getting into the cages to play with the babies). Was worried, they live in hanging cages in a 3 sided lean to we hang blankets on for the...

We just got rabbits last year, a trio of New Zealand Blues. Got then at 8 weeks old. Since January went from 3 bunnies to 31 as of today. We're just raising them in our small backyard. Built a lean-to for them and hanging cages. Little Miss had her first litter of 10 with 1 runt....runt...
