Would you buy these rabbits at this price??

[Hideaway Pines]

I agree with the others, the price seems a bit high. But price can vary from state to state -supply and demand playing a key role. But I would keep looking myself, and pictures are never as good as in person evaluation of rabbits and their environment. Temperament is also something that I look for when purchasing a new rabbit - if they are not friendly it can be difficult to handle them. Get more info on the weight of their parents for sure, but then visit in person before committing to that price.

Seems a lil high to me! Here where I live I bought a trio of California White's, two doe's and a buck, 8 weeks old, for $51.00, ($17.00 each). I believe they're the best meat rabbits!

I truly appreciate everybody chiming in. I decided to pass on these. No reason to drive super far and pay top dollar if they are questionable. Thanks again.

Perspective! I would LOVE to drive 1.5 hours to get the TAMUKs I want. I drove 5 hours each to get a pair and then a trio. Interesting convo - price does depend heavily on location.

I'm using a simple Excel spreadsheet called Rabbit Tracker. I didn't need pedigrees doing TAMUKS. And I have added tabs for expenses and receipts. Trying to find links but it won't be enough if you are doing pedigrees.
Oh - they have other forms on this page as well - I just needed the tracker then.

What’s a tamuk?

What’s a tamuk?

Texas A &M University - Kingsville. They have a rabbit breeding program there; one of the "breeds" that they produced, which they call the Composite (because it was developed from many different breeds) has the reputation for being quite heat tolerant, and comes in almost every color in the rabbit rainbow.

Yes. You can't show them because no ARBA (?) standards and there are no pedigrees. Only "Did you get them from the college directly?" or "Is it a line from ______ (fill in reputable TAMUK breeder)?"

I have been happy with my choice so far. Most have good dispositions, they grow fast, the fur is pretty but shorter and thinner and the ears are large and upright.

My goal is to become one of the reputable breeders.

I found a pair of year old American Chinchilla for 50 bucks. They are pedigreed and the pictures are stunning. I am picking them up on friday!
