So, at 7 weeks and 1 day old, my Silver Fox kits weigh:
(the doe I'm keeping)- 2.64lbs
(buck)- 2.5lbs
(doe)- 2.49lbs
(buck)- 2.46lbs
(buck)- 2.33lbs
They are gaining .5lbs a week, I think. They grew up on a completely pellet-free natural diet. Is that a good weight? I know that since they are fed naturally, they will grow slower. What do most pellet-fed SF (or other meat breed) weigh at 7 weeks?
Isn't a good goal to have meat/fur rabbits that weigh 4.5-5lbs at 9 weeks? I think the doe I'm keeping will weigh 4.5-5lbs at 11 or 12 weeks.
