I had a couple of specific questions on getting set up for raising meat rabbits.
1) I have a barn that I am planning on keeping them in. About 1/4 of it is the chicken house, 1/4 of it where the rabbits reside, and the other 1/2 where all my equipment and implements are kept. I had read somewhere that the rabbits were not good for industrialization because they were easily spooked. So my question is, will me starting my mower up in the barn and backing it spook the rabbits?
2) My plan is 2 does and 1 buck to start. I will obviously need 3 cages for them, but how many and what size cages will I need for the litters? My plan at the moment is to breed the ubiquitous New Zealand Whites.
Thanks
