New kits ready to leave the nest. all from great stock
We have kittens nearing time to leave we have:

Californian kits at 5 weeks..
New Zealand at 5 weeks and kits at 3 weeks.
Crosses of both at 5 weeks and 3 weeks.

We also have 2 very special F1 hybrid litters. We have been able to obtain the use of a Rex Du Poitou buck and have produced the most outstanding litters for size at 9 weeks they have averaged 3.2 lb live weight..... and should make great breeding stock for early matures and early pan weights.
Rex Du Poitou cross New Zealand white, these are approaching 8 weeks.
Rex Du Poitou cross Californian, these are 9 weeks.

We are based in South Wales.
early kittens are priced at 10 pounds.
later priced at 15 pounds

The Rex du Poitou are priced somewhat higher.
The Rex du Poitou: a french breed from a particular region in France.. has been bred through to produce a rabbit of high meat to bone ratio and also an exceptional pelt. The rabbit produces a meat with finer muscle strands which according to Michilin resurants gives a higher class of meat.
We scoured sources to find a Poitou and are very excited by the results.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

At first I thought you were talking about cats (cos there is a Rex cat :iconbiggrin: ), then got confused and thought Oh it's goats and you must have misspelled KIDS because I saw the word Buck (or is that a male deer? :lol: ), then looked at the photo and thought 'WHAAAAAT?'. :iconbiggrin:
