                  buying breading stock

 Only keep kits from your best does and bucks. When buying from other rabbit farms always make sure there young. Buy rabbits that is about three months old that way they have not got there full size and you no there not old. Try to get rabbits from the largest litters. This is hard to know if your buying from some one else. Buying from a breeder helps most back yard rabbits do not keep records. Your more likely to get a pure bread then a mixed rabbit from a breeder. Good records is important so that your not getting a inbreed rabbits. Watch for buck teeth or you will be clipping teeth and ear mites look at the rabbits eyes to see the there watery make sure the rabbit look good and check there feet for sore hocks. When you buy a new rabbit keep it by its self for about two weeks to make sure its healthy before you take it to your barn. I always  treat new rabbits for ear mites when I get it home you don't wont ear mites going around your barn. When buying bucks for breading buy from a farm that you have not bought from this way you get a new blood line.
