    I’m old. When I was young my dad raised rabbits for food and then for show. Wanting to help my dad I would clean the hutches an remove the piles of “turds” Mom taught me much about gardening. Rabbit manure was a fantastic fertilizer. I frequently sowed leaf lettuce and spinach directly on to of the manure pile. Best ever harvest. And all performed in a “clandestine” and forbidden way in the midst of a small and forbiding city environment. Both sides of my family were from European subsistence farmer heritage….most likely many hundreds of years and generations. I take my fellow American families of similar experience and extraction close to heart. God bless you and yours. Please keep the young ones interested, invested, and in the loop! ❤️❤️❤️

    Definitely some great ideas for a sheep/bee/chicken/hay/now rabbit farmer just getting started. We just ordered the welded wire to build new cages but i didn’t really have a good design. This is definitely a winning idea! Thanks for showing this! We have a bulk meat rabbit buyer so we can keep our does busy on a commercial schedule. But with our four barns over 10 acres we needed organization. 2 barns of sheep and now one of rabbits and we are looking at the fourth barn for rabbits as well so we can move to an 800 doe breeding program. But as a newcomer I have to plan ahead for feed by the ton but overall everything is within 50 miles of us. Thanks again! What a great info. Video!

      It’s much easier for the babies to get back into the nest. A lot of times they latch onto momma and get dragged out of the nest. A traditional nest box, they can’t get back in and can die outside the nest.
