The Urban Rabbit Project Volume 1 Backyard Meat Rabbits This is the
first in a series called The Urban Rabbit Project that will share
all of our different experiences with rabbits. Each Future Volume
will build on the prior Volumes, but could be read as a stand-alone
book. The idea is to allow the reader greater flexibility in
choosing what interests them and what they find helpful to them.
For example, this one is aimed obviously at those considering the
idea of starting a small backyard herd of meat rabbits, but does
NOT actually get into any aspects of harming any. It stops short of
that. So, if one can overlook references to "meat" rabbits, it
could be helpful to those interested in having outdoor pet rabbits
too. There are many books about raising rabbits. I find most very
general, including information on keeping rabbits as pets, raising
rabbits for show, and breeding rabbits to sell to processors for
profit. This book will focus specifically on, and only on sharing
with the reader our personal experiences and methods of raising
meat rabbits on our 120'x120' city lot in Michigan as
self-sufficient meat for our family. It stops short of the actual
harvesting process. I'm often on my soapbox in support of the
argument that it's easier for a family to "need less" than to
"spend more" money to buy quality food. Done our way, rabbit meat
can cost close to zero after the initial setup is paid for. There
are no taxes to pay, no middleman, no anything. It's just like
we've added a meat section to our garden Then, just like we do with
our extra tomatoes, zucchini and cucumbers from our garden, we can
share or trade with our neighbors who don't have any. It's that
simple. Backyard Meat Rabbits can benefit every family on the
planet, in my humble opinion. Next in the series: The Urban Rabbit
Project Volume 2 Beyond The Pellet - Feeding Rabbits Naturally In
Volume 2, I am joined by a gentleman with over 30 years of
knowledge and experience in feeding meat rabbits. Mr. Rick Worden,
owner of Rise And Shine Rabbitry and RiseAndShineRabbitry.com will
share with us his take on going Beyond The Pellet. Like myself,
Rick has worked extensively at moving away from commercial feed and
towards natural feed for our rabbits. We write this together, aimed
at a more advanced audience of Rabbiteers looking to take control
of what their rabbits eat, what their feed costs are and ultimately
what they eat.
