Meat Rabbit differances?

[3mina]

What would the average weight of a 6 week old standard rex meat type buck be?

Mine are around 2 1/2 lbs ish

Thanks for the answers!

Well, she's weighing the buck and does from the litters she has for sale too, and that's more what I'm concerned about. If they are from a smaller line, and the seniors are smaller, then I don't really want them.

Ask her what the weight of the parents are, and if they made senior weight. Like I said, it really doesn't matter what the weight of the kits are now. Mine's don't weigh much now, but they reach senior weight on time and they top out at the high end of the standard.

Actually, that's what I meant to say..............what I should have said was she is weighing the senior does and bucks the litters she has for sale are out of. :slap: :lol:
