Tri Dutch Buck

I have a litter of eight Tri-Colour Dutch born on the 1st of March, the parents were imported from the continent

I have anouther litter born on the 21st March all pedigree dutch

i have just been given 5 rabbits and there are 1 full breed lionhead and 2 rabbits which i believe have got a quarter lionhead in them the 1 is a broken magpie in colour and the other is a broken blue . thats just the bucks lol
.
there are then 2 does who 1 of which is a smoothed skinned black and white colour and the other is another lionhead in a sandy brown and whit i will post pictures when i have sorted out the garden and i will hopefully be getting a wire meshed shed to put the hutches in as we have fox problems around my area we have a dog but he wouldnt hurt a fly do u have any advice?

ps i am intrested in starting to breed them as i have the time and effort to look after them what should i do?

This is an old thread from lest year, the guy that started it was a nasty piece of work, i rescued and rehomed 5 badly treated buns from him one of which died you'll see the stickie at the top of the rabbit forum. He is now banned.

Id ask you to seriously ask yourself why you want to breed, there are loads of buns sat in rescues, if you want to research their bloodlines and want to improve the breed then fair enough but you have to find the right homes for them too. I have nothing against responsible breeders but i dont like breeding for the sake of and i would never do it just because i'd feel too guilty knowing how many are sat in rescues already desperate for homes. How big is the shed if you are housing all those buns in hutches in it? How big are the hutches they are in?
