Just traded my Holland Lops for a new SF buck for DH, he's out of "Blue" Silver Fox (even though he isn't blue himself) so that will give us a 4th bloodline.

So cute. My fiance raises rabbits for meat and the enjoyment of it. I've love to have some Silver Fox rabbits along with out wild colored muts, and {IMO} ugly white meat rabbits. I hope to meet some breeders at our state fair this year.

:fl heres hoping for a doe or two or three ;)

They were 3 wks old last Saturday, born the 10th of Dec.

We bought a 2 mo. old silver fox buck in our trio, which we've had...uh...7 wks now....and that boy's quadrupled his size in that 7 wks.
Since DH is layed off, I don't see the rabbits daily now, so I really, REALLY notice how fast they're growing, moreseo than I did when I was seeing them every day.

Rolls, they are adorable!

What do you do with your rabbits? are they meat or pet or what?

I am considering getting some meat rabbits next spring. (Shhh! dont tell hubby) I will need a nice meaty rabbit though.

Yours look more cute than tasty!

Really nice looking meat rabbits there Roll. I would be a bit concerned if they didn't grow fast, but looks like no concerns there.

Congratulations on the buck quadrupling his weight. Going to have some fine Silver foxes in his future.


RTG: If you want meat rabbits, Roll's Silver Foxes are what you should be looking for. They are really good meat rabbits. Or you could go Champaignes. Another really good meat rabbit. DKRabbitry can tell you all about them. Regarding cute, you need to get over that part to really raise meat rabbits and process them. I think you can since your DH did process Freezerburn, which is what he was brought to your farm for. Rabbit is very tasty. Hoping you go for it in the Spring.
