    I use to raise rabbits and out of all the different kinds I raised the California's were the easiest one to take care of. They are a all around good rabbit, food, heath wise, good litters and mommies, gentle, sell easy.
    I am me,
    I am free,
    You can not change me.

    If you try, you will see,
    That I am unchangeable,
    Because I am me.

    try alittle suger when you can it! i thank it helps..
    I know that you are right about the animals being happy. I can't stand the chicken farms here, they make me cry when I see them or the poor chickens being hauled down the highway crammed in cages and their little feathers flying all over the place knowing that their beaks have been clipped, they have been fed growth hormones and got so fat so fast that many of them have broken their little legs because they couldn't handle the weight and that's not even thinking about the living conditions Tyson and others puts them through. The same with cow feed lots. Makes me sick. I can't wait to get out property situation finished so we can start raising our own meats.
    I think it's totally cool that you are doing this and teaching your children how to do the same. You will never have to worry that they will go hungry. Maybe we can get together sometime and I can come see you bunnies.
    I apologize for nothing...
