I would prefer to raise red broiler chickens for my food supply when I get the time and money to do so. Just think, I'll have all the fried chicken I can eat whenever I want without having to pay someone else for delivery. Yummy.

I'm conflicted. Due to religious reasons I don't feel like I can eat rabbit. That's okay by me but I can't foresee a reason to raise them if I can't eat them. Shame because I think they'd be fun

do you need help on your farm?

Nice Video. When I was a kid in the early 70s we raised and process the New Zealand meat rabbit and sold the pelt for a little bit of change, we raised up to a little over 1 hundred rabbits at anytime we had a fully automated water system, we did have to scoop the feed to the feeder every day. We never clubbed our rabbits to kill our rabbits, there is a more humane way evolving a twisting action of the wrist. Every cage should have a pad the same size at least or bigger for the rabbits hocks or pads on the rabbits feet to have a rest. Rabbits do need a lot of ventilation during the summer, rabbits can drop like flies if they get to hot. Our large rabbit barn used attic fans on each end to move the air.Just a few points of interest

Nice setup but one thing I may add is the cage bottom that lets poop fall through is not good because rabbits need to eat their croc tropes and they need access to their "poop" it's how they actually get a good bit of their nutrients

You should have more rabbit cooking videos.
