I am looking, but it's hard search terms for this forum.
I'm looking at weighing my rabbits AND their food so I can better feed them.
Grumpy says no extra food during pregnancy and no extra food till the kits are three days old? That seems fine. Free feeding mommas nursing/growouts seems fine.
But what I can't figure out is how much to feed bucks, does, and pregnant does.
Say I have a 5 pound doe. How much pellets should she be getting? Keeping in mind that I feed extra stuff too. I was going to try pellets on a schedule for a while and see if my pregnancy rates increase and if my grow out weights are that much better.
