Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible, practical resource for pasture-based rabbit production-complete with rabbit husbandry basics, enterprise budgets, and guidelines for growing, processing and selling rabbits commercially. In recent years, there has been talk in the food world that rabbits make more sense than chicken. In a country with a $41 billion broiler chicken industry, this might seem like a pretty bold statement, but it’s hardly unsubstantiated. And yet while media has been abuzz about the supposed super protein, very few farmers are stepping up to meet the rapidly increasing interest in sustainably raised rabbit meat. This is partly due to the lack of available resources in the field of rabbit husbandry. Raising Pastured Rabbits for Meat is the first book to address the growing trend of ecological rabbit husbandry for the beginning to market-scale farmer. Inspired by Daniel Salatin, who has long been considered the pioneer in integrated rabbit farming, Nichki Carangelo proves that a viable pasture-based rabbitry is not only possible and user-friendly, it’s also profitable. In Carangelo’s approach, happy, healthy rabbits are seasonally raised outside on pasture, using a pasture and wire hybrid system that promotes natural behaviors and a diverse diet, while effectively managing the associated risks. Raising Pastured Rabbits for Meat offers valuable information on how farmers can build their own rabbit enterprise from scratch and includes tips on breed selection, breeding techniques, nutrition guidelines, record keeping tools, slaughtering and butchering instructions, marketing advice, and enterprise guides to help farmers plan for profitability. This is an essential guide for anyone interested in integrating rabbits onto a diversified farm or homestead.

Download or read book How to Raise Rabbits written by Tristan Trubble and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rabbits are something that every prepper, survivalist, homesteader should consider raising as a food source. Comparable in size to chickens, they are a renewable source of sustenance with a fairly quick reproductive cycle. If raised with chickens, they provide the owner with 2 suitable sources of renewable sustenance, both of which will convert table scraps into healthy protein in the form of meat. Rabbit meat is very lean and considered a healthy source of protein, as is chicken. The comparable sizes of these animals make it easy to prepare a single meal for a medium sized family, with a single sacrifice. This will help cut down on waste, as well as help stem the onset of food fatigue, which can occur is all you have is a limited source of food. Rabbits can also be raised as pets, or for their fur, which can then be used to manufacture hats, coats, mittens, and boots; clothing for the winter months when temperatures get cold. Rabbits are very timid and tend to shy away from humans until they get used to be handled. They are also one of the easiest animals to clean when it comes time to sacrifice one for a meal. This guide book walks you through the many benefits of raising rabbits for different purposes. To Your Safety, Security & Sustenance, Tristan Trubble

Book excerpt: Whether you have pet rabbits, show rabbits, fiber rabbits or a small meat rabbit herd, you already know how expensive feed prices are getting. This book will pay for itself many times over in feed savings alone. It will also enable you to go confidently into a natural feeding program, bettering your rabbit's health and happiness. In Volume 1 of The Urban Rabbit Project series "Backyard Meat Rabbits" I wrote for the beginner's benefit about why to raise rabbits, planning for rabbits and introduced an educational community. In Volume 2, I am joined by a gentleman with over 30 years of knowledge and experience in feeding rabbits naturally. 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.
