Breeding tips
Hi, I had a 4 year old doe that I got from my friend that I tried to breed for a year. She never bred. Then I came across an article in an old old rabbit newsletter (early 50's), about a week before the Full moon, move your stubborn doe in to a place that is TOTALLY dark (I think this is the key) for 3 days. then move her into an area that is 24 hour light, and slightly warmer than the usual temp. for 4 days. Then put her with the buck. Presto Chango I got Babies!!! I've tried this on 20 different hard to breed does and I've got 20 litters!! I guess the old standby is still Good.
