These are the discouraging months, raising rabbits in Florida. Too hot to breed... The buns are miserable from the heat... Yard work kicks in to high gear, and cleaning cages becomes a real chore. Meanwhile, the boat wants to be taken out.
The other day, two dogs that I've never seen before got in through the open door and terrorized my herd. They couldn't get at the rabbits sealed in their cages, but before it was over, my favorite buck was paralyzed from the chest down.
I think about throwing in the towel, but I got out there and cleaned the cages this afternoon and realized, I've got too much in to it to just give up.
I'm overdue on nail trimming and butchering. Once I get caught up I'll probably feel better. :roll:
