Possum Tails Acres

Possum Tails Acres we pride ourselves on self-sustainability, ethical animal husbandry, repurposing, and reusing.

All of my bunnies are happy, healthy, and never want for anything. 😊 I do not breed, raise, or sell pets, they are spoiled rotten livestock.

my gains from a single litter of 7 rabbit grow outs.

3 - Sold to another family to help their meat rabbit journey - $180
3 - Processed to go to the freezer - 7.5lbs (~3-4 meals)
1 - held back to evaluate for future breeding

Selling just 1 grow out would have paid for this entire litters feed plus a small margin of profit. (2 - 50 lb bags of feed x $24 +/- tax each = $48, 2 bags of pellets will feed a litter this size till 5+lbs/12+ weeks)

With the price of ground beef @ ~$6.75/lb, 7.5lbs of meat would have cost me roughly $50!

+$180 sales
- $48 feed cost = $132
- $60 for a new doe = $72

That $72 will go towards my next litter. 😁

These are the 2 remaining from Karen's litter of 5. One baby was stepped on and 2 had fallen out of the nest box. Which I will not fault Karen for since the box I gave her doesn't have a baby scraper nor does it have baby saver wire. It's my fault for those. Next time she will have one of my new cages I'm building so she will be better set up for success.

While Karen has earned her name and been threatened several times to become dinner, she might yet find her place in my barn.

Maybe she's just not a people person, which I totally get. At least her remaining babies are super fat and happy.

Who would be interested in herbal remedies?

Not just selling but where to find them, the benefits, and how to identify and process the wild foraged foliage. Possibly even instructional media from foraging to dosages.

I LOVE the KW Cages Nurture design but the price point just was not economical for my application. So with some borrowed brain power, tools, and muscle, the hubby helped me reverse engineer and modify their design for what I was looking for. This cage we put together is one of multiple we will be using in the new bunny nugget factory. The cost savings alone are absurd! At the end of the day these cages will be a 3rd of the cost of KW's design with ALL the features I want and none that I don't! We will continue to improve the looks and efficiency as we build but I couldn't be happier with how it's turned out!

Some of the features include:
-Extra large swinging door
-built in hay basket
-galvanized framing for support

features not yet installed are:
-drop down nest box
-lounging shelf
-automatic feeder
-automatic gravity fed water

Talk about EXCITED!! Now that the first one is built, I can't wait for the new barn to be finished and start hanging some cages!

I don't have pictures yet but Nox and Karen both had kits last night! No official headcount as I was only checking for kits that didn't make it but Karen has about 5 kits and Nox has a whopping 10 or more!! 😁 I'm super excited to see how these 1st time moms do! Karen might even get to move her name down or even off of the "list" (iykyk)

I'll give the moms/kits a few days to get oriented then I'll have pictures to show the rainbow of colors and patterns I saw!
