Description

A place to discuss alternate ways of raising rabbits (besides in cages/on wire), colony-style in group settings,whether inside, outdoor pens, rabbit tractors - all ideas welcome! Also focusing on more natural methods of feeding and care and providing for mental stimulation. Both meat and pet breeders/owners welcome, but discussion may also encompass butchering and related topics so please do not join if this offends you. Please introduce yourself and your bunnies and let us know your location!
