Out Of Print...Few people are to be found who really dislike rabbits; this is probably because many people have pleasant childhood memories of them, and also because as livestock rabbits have no objectionable characteristics. They are quiet and docile, and will not wake your neighbors by crackling or crowing in the early hours of the morning. Accommodation is in simple housing that does not involve a large capital outlay because existing outbuildings can be utilized, and large areas of ground are not required. Unlike some larger animals, good foundation stock is not expensive to buy, and the rabbits are easy to handle provided, of course, that they are handled regularly and gently. For those interested in showing, the rabbit is easy to transport and is a suitable animal for a wide age range, from schoolchildren to pensioners. The amount of physical work involved is slight, so it can provide a continuing source of interest to a great number of people. If you are thinking of keeping animals, you could do much worse than to get some rabbits.
