Oh my gosh, I had no idea rabbits are so efficient! I can see why you chose them now, well done on your research! I'm more than impressed - I'm inspired! They are a lot easier to harvest than chickens and way more efficient than the high yield critters. I knew they were easy to keep but I hadn't thought of it in cost to uses terms before. They really are an excellent choice!

LOL, I guess it would be hard getting someone to tend a goat if you wanted to go away on trips and things... like I said, they are feisty little things... ;)

At worst, rabbits can nip and scratch a little but if they are handled everyday they pretty easy to keep settled. I had a white rabbit and a feral x fop as pets - the white one liked to jump on my chair and bite me on the ass as I tried to sit down, the fop chased and terrorised my cats every chance they got. I had to remind the cats to stay away from him!

Still more manageable than goats! :)
