Hi All.
Just found this site a bit ago. The Hubby and I are going to start raising rabbits for food. We live in the Cincinnati area of Ohio. Get hot and cold weather. I would like to know what a good breed is for us. Also, I would like to know what to feed them other than pellets. We want to be as self sufficient as possible, and that includes being able to feed the rabbits and chickens in case we couldn't get feed for them. We want to house the rabbits and chickens in the same area, but plan on keeping the rabbits in cages. I think this is the best way to keep them, correct? We have about a half acre only, but somewhat rural, so we can have the chickens and rabbits.
Thank you all.
