Hello everyone! I need some advice. I plan to start breeding rabbits (probably for pets) in the near future. I have been looking at Netherland Dwarfs due to their small size and space requirements. Plus, they're just so stinking cute! However, they seem to be complicated to breed. I really would love for some advice from experienced rabbit breeders on everything involving ND! Thank y'all in advance!

Small rabbits tend to be more skittish, so research and get some from a reputable breeder that doesn't breed agressive rabbits. They have small litters, 2-3 is common. They will have losses due to the dwarf genes, peanuts that won't thrive.
