The qualities of Milk Production, Unifomity and Litter Size are useless unless you are feeding your rabbits a topic quality feed. Too many rabbit raisers fall into the trap of spending much of their time selecting all the top qualities for the rabbits in their commercial rabbitry and then pay little attention to the rabbit feed they use to insure that the qualities they have selected live up to their potential. Feed is a variable which also has a very powerful influence on the quality of growth rate. Your kits can have the quality of fast growth in them but it all will depend on which type of rabbit feed you feed your growing offspring. Most qualities need to be combined with a couple of the right variables to be uses to their top potential in the rabbitry.
Feed is a variable which has an influence on many qualities in a breeding stock rabbit.
Water is another variable which has a very big impact on the qualities you select for the rabbits in your commercial rabbitry. Water is a variable which will influence every quality you look for in a breeding stock rabbit for your commercial rabbitry. One quality that water has a major influence on is growth rate. When looking at growth rate as a quality in your breeding stock rabbits you have to look to see if the rabbits were provided water with water bottles or an automatic watering system. Rabbits provided water with an automatic watering system will grow a lot faster than rabbits provided water with water bottles.
