I have been experimenting with feeding my bunnies like I do my horses (forage based diet with some whole grains) for several years, they are happy and healthy. It seems to me that your breeding program and feeding (and management) style are completely interlinked, as the animals that perform best under your care are going to be the ones you breed, so you are selecting those traits regardless of your plan but I don't hear people talking about this.
I also keep hearing about how purebred show rabbits aren't as vigorous as your crossbreds and I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on having a breeding program that prioritized vigorous and healthy animals as well as the physical and temperamental traits that are desired in the breed.
any thoughts?
