I sexed Cinders's bunnies today. You're not gonna believe it. I know I don't! Every one of them was a Doe! All seven! What are the chances!

Sapphire's litter will probably be sold. At least some of them might.  They are good-sized and will be sold as meat rabbits. They will be about ten dollars this time, to cover the cost of feed. We haven't figured out how to pasture them, yet. The price may go down significantly when we do because our costs will be down, although they still will probably receive pellets until they are separated from their mothers.

By the way, all of our new litters are half Silver Fox rabbit. They are good for meat and breeding, despite the problems with Ophilia's litter. In a first litter, it's common for a lot (or all) of them to die. I'm confident she'll do better next time.

If you're interested in buying a rabbit from us and breeding it, please feel free to ask for advice. We'll be happy to help!
