    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I recently switched from breeding Flemish Giants to New Zealands for feeders. The NZ's are smaller, but they are supposed to produce larger and more often litters.

Does anyone else breed rabbits as feeders? If so what kind?
 
New Zealands are fast breeders and a lot better then flemish giants...Anyways breeding rabbits aint easy and sometimes you will be dissapointed at low producing does....
 
Well I have been breeding 5 NZ's and one pair of Flemish all summer and although some had bad first litters, I have had awesome results. I did invest in an automatic water system and I do get the 18% protien feed as opposed to the crappy cheap feed.

The NZ's consistantly produce, and produce larger litters, but having the Flemish and growing up the babies for a few months is well worth it for my bigger snakes.

I think as long as people know that raising rabbits will take a lot more time and money than the snakes the rabbits are feeding, then I would recommend it for those with bigger collections of big snakes.
