- 11 baby bunnies!!! Wow, I wasn't expecting that!
Down to the very important job of cleaning up after the birth. This will keep the babies healthy and help to keep predators away too.
Be very careful not to move the babies too much.

No way take the baby's out like that my friend.
Amo mucho a los conejos 💖
Anyone know what size is that nesting box.? Looking for nesting box for my californian bunny. Thanks
I usually cleaned out my nest boxes on day ten but other than that I like how you take care of your rabbits.
Thank you. I try hard to make sure they are very well looked after, even if they are raised for meat.
Just because you're going to eat them doesn't mean you can't make sure they have happy lives until then.
I couldn't agree with you more Ariane
I don't know how I ended up here, but these comments are pure gold
This is beautiful, I wish 😢 my bunny could come back to me 11yrs was not enough time, miss him dearly, his passing has affected me something terrible, he was all I had sincerely 😢 😞 💔
Hallo,cuanto te entiendo!!Yo,tengo otro conejito,es el tercero que tengo ya...Copito de nieve,es todo ternura,ya tiene 5 years,y también los he extrañado a mis dos conejitos anteriores,pues por eso me coji otro,pues estaba muy triste y se les echa mucho de menos... Ánimo,siempre puedes coger otro,y así,no te dolerá tanto...Un abrazo y kisses 💋💋💜🐇💙
maybe a good idea to use a tray with two inch edging all around to prevent them from rolling off...
that's a very good idea. I have actually changed things since this, and I only use this cage for my growouts.
Very sweet

How do your rabbits handle the winter - I live in Canada and sometimes in the winter ( most of the time ) the temp is well below zero
they are made for the winter, we will be raising them in Saskatchewan this year. watch for videos. this will be our first time with rabbits
Great video.
I have a question. My New Zealand doe had baby's last night and this morning I went to check on them to pull out any dead ones, but when I opened the hutch door to the nest she ran in there and started eating one. Idk if it was alive but is that normal?? I think I scared her?
+Psycho Gorilla Was the kitt already dead? She would eat dead ones to protect the nest from predators.
My cat ate 2 of her kittens. they were premature. 1 was alive and 1 dead. learnt later on that it's them.protecting their little one's
Big salute to the mother ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amen

Okay but here’s the real question... what recipes do you use the rabbit meat in? I’m an aspiring chef and have been looking to expand my palette. Out of all the things I’ve eaten, somehow I’ve never gotten my mitts on rabbit. I’ve heard it’s delicious in stew... how else is it prepared?
take arsenic or cyanide! That helps!
I'm from Indonesian ❤️
Welcome to Food For Thought. We look forward to your input.
Stay there.
Pretty bunnies thanks for sharing
Thank you
Thanks for the video!! We've just started raising rabbits and having our first litter today. This is new to me, so i appreciate you sharing.
Thank you. Eddie

Pls say you didnt eat them...
Nice. Cute mom rabit
do you make the nest boxes for your bunnies or you buy them? also, How old does the bunny have to be for a female and a Male for them to breeding? I got into rabbits buy watching all of your videos.
xDj Fluttershy MLP All of my nest boxes were bought. Females are on average 6 months before breeding, males 7 months. Thank you for watching the videos :)
Its no problem also you still doing Rabbits? I would love to see more rabbit Videos from you.
xDj Fluttershy MLP I decided that this year I wouldn't raise rabbits and concentrate of learning other skills. I'll get back to the rabbits next year as I am missing them being around.
alright ^^ i`m glad that you still here
watch Lennon the Bunny instead.
OH, LOVE that cage. Question: With that door so big, does it cause problems with doe falling out/buck chases/ or babies when older? I LOVE that access. Doe looks great for just delivered!! Also GREAT Idea to put a board in front of nest box, so many times doe has "missed" the nest box and had a baby just out of box. Simple love it!
Its Amazing Great to see first time and thanks for this Video 🐇✔️
hi, i just started breeding rabbits and my doe had a litter of 7 last thursday. however, 3 of them died at 4 days old, but they were all in the nest. of the remaining 4, one had runny stool all over his back legs. did i introduce an infection by mistake? do you take any special precautions?
ngufan ikojo The only thing you could do to do infection is keep the cage clean and make sure the straw bedding isn't mouldy. After that it's down to nature.
There r so many varieties of food, fruits and vegetables that nature offers us to eat.. But still people choose animals. :/ :(
Rahul Kumar Yup
Humans are OMNIVORES. We need meat to survive
I´m agree with you complete! I´m vegan, and I feel much better. I was in India and I had meet an Master for Yogi and he was an Monk, he was over 95 years old. His mind was so clear and bright, he told me, that he had never eat animals! Animals have an soul and feels the same like humans. And much much more spirit! great comment from you, Rahul!
Amazing vedio
Oh ok thx for replying
good idea, thanks
Good reflex !!
Really awesome 😎😁😎☺️
Sir super ,,, Karnataka state kannada language transfer Madi release Madi Sir plz I want to kannada language all information sir thanks vandanegalu sir
How often do you breed them? Also, I want you and your rabbits on my apocalypse survival team.
I breed the females 4-5 times a year and for sure have a few rabbits for your survival team.
Ariane Bolt Can I and my incredible charm, dashing witt, and unfailing sarcasm join?
Super filmy. Bardzo się cieszę jak widzę ludzi którzy kochają zwierzęta i o nie dbają ❤
Thank you for your kind words.
Hey I'm getting rabbits soon bot it's cold here they will be 4 weeks old do I need to get some hay or straw?
+asif Khan If they are being kept outdoors then yes, but mine are all now in a shed with heating so I don't use straw except for the nest boxes as the babies will need it for sure.
Y’all ass hurt people in the comments talking about eating “cute bunnies” 😂 y’all probably eat “cute chickens” and “cute cows” too lmao. Just because in our culture we see rabbits as pets? Is that it? Because if someone from India saw you eating a cow they’d be horrified, cows are sacred. You need to stop bitchin about eating an animal just because it’s cute when you probably scarf down plenty of other animal meat in a day yourself. This is the reality of farming; accept it or get off the video
Morgan Hackworth love the comment a little reality really is what this world needs everyone's gotten too damn soft
Morgan Hackworth l don't eat meat myself but l agree still, most of the people being butthurt in the comments are probably hypocrites, the way the rabbits are being kept seems far more humane than the way they raise and keep chickens/cows
Wow! beautiful! but i thought they say if you touch them young, the mother will not feed them again?
That's an old wives tail. If you interact with your rabbits on a daily basis then they will not think of you as a predator. But I've seen people save wild kitten in gardens, and mom comes back.
Meat Rabbits!?!?
Very🌹👍 nice
I agree with your video. A lot of people say to wait to clean the box. And with some moms you can. I have one mom that leaves no signs of birth. But I have found blood and placenta and under formed babies and a dead baby with some of my moms. If I would have waited 7-10 days all the babies be dead from the stuff rotting.
Hello, what a good channel you have.
I'da used a shallow sided soda box, thermal blanket in it, babies on the thermal blanket, not bothered with covering with the fur, just quick enough to change the box, babies back in the box, re-cover with the fur and done. The babies were already hopping and could have just as easily gone to the hard ground and been seriously injured or killed by a preventable accident. I raise Flemish Giants strictly as pets, no eating of rabbits in my house. I'm ok with other people raising meat rabbits for consumption though. My rabbits have a massive 18 square ft. of living space each to themselves and are spoiled rotten with fresh water, pellets, fresh grass and leafy greens.
Lots of essential information 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Thank you👍🏼
Respect and love
From Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine 🇵🇸 ❤️🐇
Thank you
CUTE !!! Baby rabbbits:)
Nice video sir
Thank you
Hey Eddie, how is Daisy so chill with you messing with her babies? That's some impressive tolerance.
Dinner-fork tongue I interact with them every day so she knows I'm not a threat. I also give her fresh greens, and she's more interested in those lol.
Cheers for that then! :P
so cute
You do you , keep it up , very educational
Hello New freind Her Great video like and nice time🍃😊
The kindness and care you handle these animals with is wonderful. I enjoy your channel it's very informative and you handle mean/ignorant comments with such tact.
To all of you complaining, if you exist as a part of modern society (which you obviously do since you're whining on the internet), you have no right to leave any negative comments here.
Why wouldn’t we have no right to tell our opinion if it is negative?? Will you stop us? I don’t think so. Fuckin idiot
Their killing and eating innocent rabbits
what are you believe? modern society? You don´t know nothing about an modern society! In an enlighted world, you should better learn, that animals have an soul, so much empathy and much more! To eat meat as an part of an modern society, what you belive is absolutely shit and nonsense! The better humans eat no meat! and have not so much health problems later like heart diseases and other. Thats the following punishment of humans greed.
Then he brutally slaughters them you imbecile. Gfy
good
What do u... m.. mean by... meat rabbits...?😥
Plz dont... eat.. them.. plz😢😢
The setup is decent but maybe something larger and lose the wire bottom its really bad on their feet
I moved to 4'x2' cages, but kept the wire floor. With large breeds wire floors are fine as the 1/2" holes allow pee and poop to drop through but do not affect the feet. The only problem I ever had with sore hocks was on a solid floor that the urine could not escape, but thank you for your opinion.
nice
Mamas chowing down on the sweet greens you gave her 😊
You'd think he would have learned to put them in a BOX while changing the litter... SHEESH!!!
This was my first time at cleaning out the straw, and as a new breeder, I didn't know the kits moved around so much. The kit fell into a bucket of straw and was unhurt.
@@FoodForThought. Im so sorry for the rude and negative comments. I also raise rabbits for meat. We have a botanical garden with petting zoo. Our animals are not caged they have cute adobe houses in safe grass paddocks. They are friendly and part of the family. But we eat the babies when they are a good size. They are loved , cared for, and sacrificed with thanksgiving and respect. Vegans will never understand this, and that is their choice. We also raise Guinea pigs for meat which is traditional in Peru. Thank you for your thoughtful video. We also have chickens and Alpaca which they eat here also, although we havent tried that yet. we need more space for goats for milk , cheese and meat.
@@sharonstuebi8181 Thank you for your very kind comments. I would love to have community at some time but garden size doesn't let me do this.
Do you butcher the mother rabbit for meat after she cant produce anymore babies ?
Is it okay to touch baby’s to clean the cage as I had baby rabbits born yesterday
Sorry not to get back to you, but yes, as long as the for is used to you touching her first.
cute bunnies with red eyes op
I dont kwow why you want to do this, but you d better put the new nest box against the old one, : you only have to take them up once, and the can not get lost
Where can I find those nesting boxes? They are amazing! Please provide a link.
Sir aap ki rabbit khud dudh pilati hai ki aap pakarkar Pilate hai
WAOOO, ME GUSTA COMO TRATAS A LOS CONEJOS, TE FELICITO
sir why do you need to clean after birth??
To prevent ants and bad odor cause sometimes the mom leave mess after birth
hey I got a bunny and what would work best for me to leave it outside warm
I have to ask, where are you located and what is the weather like with you?
+Food For Thought I live in Kansas but the weather is weird sometimes it's hot and sometimes is cold
+Ted Boxer The thing you have to plan for most of the time is hear, they really can't deal with heat. I put frozen bottles in the cages when it gets really hot. They also hate drafts so work on that too.
You might think about using a colony setup if you have enough space. There are a couple of different channels that cover colony farming.
IamTenzin I don't have enough space for a colony unfortunately.
The fact that people can name animals, raise them from birth and then kill them for soup is literally beyond my comprehension.
That's. Because people like that have NOOOO SOUL.!!!! They are PURE EVIL.👿👿
Que mae más ravieso 😂😂😂 solo molestar las crías
My rabbit looks egzactly the same as your rabbit but it got sold and it had babies
What age do you harvest
Austin Floyd 10-12 weeks
Good
Cute
I dont have nest box,mine just gave birth on hay and made a hole in there put her coat in there and there are 5 babies..i dont know how to chande everything...
Try and get a box so the babies can't crawl out of the nest as they will get cold and possibly die. They will stay in the straw for a few hours but might go looking for mom, and food.
Good job
Hello 👋. I wanted to ask if by any chance you had a video up on how you skin them before cooking them? Thanks👍👍👍. Nice video by the way
Demetrio Alvarado There is a video on the whole processing procedure.
U have no HEART MAN... EAT A COW OR OR PIG OR SOMETHING ELSE MAN.!!! And leave BUNNY'S OUT OF UR DIET U MEAN PERSON.👿
@@jenovevabarnes1817 why would it be worse to eat rabbits?
nice video. i wanted to go into rabbit breeding as well for meat and wanted to ask why dont you breed the flemish giant or chinchilla cause they are bigger
I have 2 flemish /Californian. Females im breeding for meat but its not goot to do all flemish because they have a lower meat to bone ratio my buck is a full blood flemish so ill get bigger meat rabbits im hoping their not all bone since the doe's are just slightly bigger then the californians regular size...
NICE
As a bunny mom who keeps a rabbit as a pet this angers me so, so much that once you popped up in my recommendations I had to comment. I don't understand why in the world would you eat rabbits that barely have meat on them, just because we are on the top of the food chain doesn't mean we can devour any animal we can. We are capable of eating cats and dogs too, why don't we? Because it's unethical to eat our own pets. Rabbits are the 3rd most commonly adopted animals as pets, why is it ethical for you to eat them? Are cows, chickens, and fish not enough?
Emotional damage.
What kinds of rabbits are those?
Backyard DIYforever They are New Zealand Whites
I realize i'm four years late but in specific the white + red eyes are albino rabbits, because they have no pigment. I have an albino.
@2:50 ~ ***Best Part***
"mumble,grubble,grumm... we want too (phhuuufffttt), yemp.".. . I think he shiot his pants !?!?
😂😂
But, they said it's not proper to touch bunnies with hands without clove. Like you touched those bunnies. According to what's Rabbits farmer said, Their mother can eat them all or refused to breastfeed them. When she inhale humanbeans odours. Which one can I follow? Because, Am a Rabbits farmer here in Nigeria 🇳🇬. Thanks.
All I can say is that I interact with the rabbits every day, touching them, brushing, and scratching behind their ears. All things you would do with any domestic pet. If you show them that you are not a threat to them, then they will not act out negatively. Not once in my years of breeding have any of my does eaten their kittens.
Thanks from Russia)
You're welcome. Keep safe.
@@FoodForThought. Thank you, you too)
and one more thing sir i have rabbits but still not seen the mother gave a breast feeding unless need to hold the mother for 30 min or less
bunny moms only feed there babies once , maybe twice a day for a few minutes.. after which they like to go a distance away from the babies so as to protect them from predators...because the babies won't have a scent for several months, so if the mother leaves the babies alone they are safer than if she stays close to them as then the predator will smell her and find both her and the babies.
Use like plate shape container to temporarily hold them so they dont jump like that.
thanks for the information
You are sick and not in a cool way you disgust me
Good to see you taking care of your food! I love to eat as our ancestors would. Better than anything at the store :). Happy eating!
eat yourself!
Thank you that was very educated for me

Thank you

🐇Love 2
why do you put grass in the box I thought it is only cotton that is needed
Straw is natural and a great bedding. Never known anyone to use cotton
Do you enough milk to11baby
I was wondering how many rabbits would eat 50 pounds of food in 1 month?
Susanne Winslow 3oz of food per day per adult rabbit. You would also give hay or fresh grass/weeds too
At 2:30 I thought when the bunny almost fell off the edge I thought another bunny fell off because of that thud sound 😧
I thought its not advisable to grab the kit with your bare hands cause the mother may possible not feed it anymore
Old wives tale when it comes domestic rabbits. As long as you let your rabbits every day and they don't see you as a threat, this is never an issue.
Nessery to use cotton,really I don't know
Use cotton? As bedding?
At what age does a rabbit giver birth
shifa hasan She can be bred about 5 months old but I prefer then to be 6-7 months old. After breeding they will give birth 30-31 days later.
I subcribe your channel
Mine has just today had baby's but I don't want to touch them because last litter they all were eaten by the mum
Em_star _vlogs At what point did she do that?
Wait. What am I watching. I thought he wad taking care of them
Avid fan i start my own bakyard rabbitry
Great!
Are meat rabbits when you eat them???
+Tyler Horse Whisper Yes, they are farmed to be eaten eventually.
I think cleaning or changing their nest is bad idea as I did so, now my doe is not accepting its baby...I'm worried if they will die!!
saujan karki I have never had a problem with cleaning out the nest. You'll only ever catch the doe in the nest twice a day to feed. Apart from that she'll ignore it.
no, she's not ignoring it...she leaves the babies after feeding to protect them as they have no scent and cannot be found by predators whereas she does have a scent and the predator will find both her and the babies if she stays near them!!! Rabbit mothers are good mothers...they aren't ignoring their babies.........
I thought if you touch the rabbit babies, the mother will reject them because of your scent. is that true?
Shoeb Fasih Old wives tail. If you have daily contact with your rabbits, they won't find you a threat and therefore not a threat to her kittens.
no
If the mother trusts you she will let you handle the babies and be ok with it. some mothers are less trusting, and some get very upset. Know your bunny and "listen" to her signs
Can I purchase one for a pet since you just eat them anyways
i can't stand these comments lmfao
what's wrong with you people
