Hi there. I received an interesting proposition and was hoping to get feedback from the community.
A friend of mine heard I will be getting rabbits when I move to my new house. She is into knitting and crafts. She was wondering if I would take care of an angora rabbit for her. She wants the wool, I want the rabbit it sounds like a good match.
1) Does anyone out there have any experience with some type of co-ownership of a rabbit with a friend?
2) Any ideas of what would be an equitable split of costs? On one hand it would be easier for me to finance the whole setup (rabbits, cages, food, supplies) and just sell her the wool. On the other extreme she probably would finance everything and I would be compensated in rabbit enjoyment, an interesting hobby, and bunny berries for the garden. Then there is the whole issue of if she owns the rabbit who owns any potential babies, etc., etc., etc.
Which brings me back to question 1; has anyone out there done something similar? How did it work out for you? Any surprise issues or something like that?
