Although rabbits have become popular as household pets, they have long been commercially raised primarily for their meat and, in the past, even for their fur. Rabbits require very little space, and the size of your breeding operation will often depend on the space available. Unlike large commercial rabbit farms, some enthusiasts in modern farmyards raise them on a small scale to enjoy the qualities of this meat—lean, white, and with a refined taste—on their plates.
This small mammal, which converts its food into meat more efficiently than cattle, sheep, or pigs, nevertheless requires a specific diet to provide all the essential nutrients to meet its physiological needs while ensuring its well-being and longevity. In practice, for maintaining digestive health, this herbivore needs a well-balanced, high-fiber diet. The addition of prebiotics and probiotics is also beneficial. Furthermore, the use of organic minerals, such as selenium and other trace elements, offers advantages for its immune system.
