Anybody breeding meat rabbit?

I put the nest box in with my doe this afternoon and put some pine shavings in it. Then i  grabed a feed bag full of hay for bedding ftom a friend.
 She should be dropping the little ones in a few days. I have to look at the calender.

Should be 5/22. I'd usually wait till 3 days before that to put the box in.

She is due tuesday the 20th.
How long after she has the liter do you rebreed?

31 days from the day you bred her would be the 22nd based on your post.  If the box is in there now, no worries unless she starts using it as a couch or as a toilet.

Stuff that box full of hay and see if she nests in it. A lot of times they’ll go to nesting right away.  We do 2-3” of shavings then stuffed full of Timothy hay.

I’d probably re-breed her when the babies are 6 weeks old.

I put the course wood shavings in the day I put the nest box in.
Yesterday i put some nice soft grass hay in.

She went right to building up the nest box, full mouth fulls of the hay.
I will be picking up a tripple deck rabbit cage set up.

The doe had her litter yesterday, they were born before I got home from work.

Nice. She had them in the box like she’s supposed to and everybody is doing well?
