In S.C., there are a lot of rabbit farmers (ranchers) who raise cottontails for hunters. You might want to check around your area and see if this viable. This could be another market for you.

I strongly suggest you contact your state's Wildlife Department. Most states have laws making it illegal to keep and/or tame wild native species of rabbits.

Try pureed spinach. They gobble it up & it doesn't give them diarrhea!
