I just did a weigh in of my 8-week old meat rabbit kits. I would have been satisfied had they been a mere two to two-and-a-half pounds. They surprised me, though. One of the kits, grabbed by accident, was a kit I was worried about last week because he wan't gaining weight the way he should. He's gained a considerable amount of muscle (meat) since then.
The two I weighed, out of a random selection, turned out to be a hefty THREE POUNDS each! That's amazing! It means they will likely be at least six pounds by the time they reach twelve weeks. I'm impressed. My breeding program seems to be working. I'll keep you all posted. :)
