Nitefury:please how much do you sell? Am into rabbit newly and am yet to make any sales... I don't know how to get buyers. Can u help me with contacts? Pleeeeeease! (what and what do u feed them? They look so big and cute) |
Re: How Many Rabbits Do You See? by Nitefury: 4:38pm On Apr 20, 2015 |
Cleoo: ok.. To start with, I don't really sell to people who buy for consumption. Most people who buy are visitors who come to my house and see them running around in the compound, fall in love with them (you know, rabbits are cuties) and want to raise them too. So they buy. But because of how demanding the task of caring for them is, most of my buyers end of eating them. The town where they are ( in Cross River) has a higher institution, so there are periods when students need them for practicals.. So if you have a higher institution in your area, that's a good place to start to sell. Or you can print fliers or start with word of mouth advert. Or post plain adverts like "FOR YOUR LIVE RABBITS (MALE/FEMALE) CALL ..080yournumber. Where do you stay? How many do you have? I started keeping them because of the love foe them not really to sell. But school, travels and my unstable presence meant they at several points lack proper attention. O once left for school leaving about 50 behind, coming back to meet about 12 or so.. Right now there are 21.. Though its kinda difficult to feed them, especially during the dry season, but rabbits eat a whole lot of things including potatoes, potato leafs, ripe plantain and banana peels, palm fronds, yam, yam peels, poultry feed, fruits, water melons (I get the back from some fruit vendors), several grasses that i don't know their botanical names.. A whole lot bro, its just time consuming. My friends sell for between 3k to 4k for 1.. I sell for 2k to 2k5 for 1.. Matured ones.. 1k5 for litters.. |

Nitefury:oh wow! You really took ur time to explain. Thanks very much,! I appreciate... I ve 7 rabbits now. Just bought them Sha, my seller claims that 2 of the females are pregnant. And I can't see any sign of pregnancy o.. I don try to really find out if they get Belle true true cuz they are loosing weight instead of adding weight as pregnant rabbits.. That's what really got me confused and worried. I reside in Anambra state. |
Re: How Many Rabbits Do You See? by Nitefury: 7:11am On Apr 21, 2015 |
Cleoo: Lol.. Don't mind your seller.. That's what they all tell people so as to increase the price. Their gestation period is between 28-31 days, so a pregnant rabbit should give birth by then.. what's the rain fall like in your area? I also noticed potato leafs are readily available in the east (probably because they aren't consumed all that much), so you can try to feed them those.. I believe under-feeding is the reason for their weight loss. How old are they? You can take a picture so I'll have an idea if you really don't know.. |
