Hello to all,
I had brought up a question about my sick NZ buck in a different thread (Rabbit Cold?), but I wanted to open another one as my question has slightly changed.
Everyone was pretty sure that my rabbit has some kind of respiratory infection (pneumonia) and I have decided to cull him. :weep:
My question now is this:
I bred my Cal doe to him three weeks ago. At the time he was healthy and looking great (I have only had him for about two months). Would he pass down his weak immune system to the bunnies? I'm just wondering if they would only good for meat and if keeping any of them for breeding stock is a bad idea.
Thanks,
