Why does it seem like rabbit breeders are always aggressively joyous about culling???
Firstly, I get super duper excited when I see homesteader actively and intentionally culling. Kudos for having goals and following throughđđť
Secondly, and I know this one is hard for folks, so say it with me.
CULLING DOESNâT ALWAYS MEAN KILL!
If you need a refresher, Iâve compiled a post for you.

So letâs talk some facts.
Rabbits breed very often, every 30-32 days, naturally. Their litters tend to be on the larger side compared to most livestock. This is anatomy and physiology of them being the ultimate prey animal, which means we harvest meat from them quickly. A rabbit is table ready in 8-12 weeks, ultimately why the rabbit breeders you are following, are harvesting meat in your newsfeed regularly.
That is a joyous part of breeding.
Better quality rabbits being bred towards their breed Standard of Perfection is the goal. You should be aggressively culling in this aspect. Donât ever let anyone tell you youâre being too aggressive with your goals.
The better type, the better meat yield, the less feed and resourcing youâre forcing into subpar stock.
I take aggressively culling as a compliment, not a dig.
Thank you for recognizing my hard work!
And lastly, yes, pages are monetized. You have to stand out in a sea of slop to engage an audience. Sometimes thatâs with photos and other times thatâs with provoking captions.
I assure you I donât run fast to Facebook, the trolls always seem to find meâŚ..
