Hi everyone,
I have three 10 wk old ( I think, I am waiting on the pedigrees, they were 7 wks the day the ad was posted, so I counted from that) mini rex. Two does that share a father and an unrelated buck. I also have a 7 yr old buck already.
I am starting a 4H group mainly because the ones near me are full. I have some kids who want to join 4H and want to show rabbits but do not currently have them. When is it safe and optimal to breed my females? ( I realize that it might not take the first time and that I should wait between attempts if it doesn't.) I also have a few leaders who are willing to help but mini rex is not the breed they deal with.
For the record I have seen the pedigrees, but the 4H girls' mom has never made a pedigree before so she is trying to figure out how to make it and then will hand deliver it to me, I also am withholding the other half of their cost until I get the pedigree.
