Commercially white is pretty much only option because it can be dyed to a consistent color per batch. Getting other coat colors consistent to that level is close to impossible. Only black self might work. Simply any application for fur that requires more than one fur per piece of clothing will need perfectly matching color in all furs used. That pretty much means dying it over breeding for it.
Hi, what meat bread Rabbit are you recommend
New Zealand white
Californian
Would you recommend mini Rex for first time 4H ?
For showmanship, yes. As a breeding project, no. They do require a bit more maintenance than some other breeds as their nails grow a bit faster and they are more prone to sore hocks, so know that going in.
Thanks again for a great video on Rabbits 🐇 👍
