Raising rabbits is gaining in popularity for many reasons. For example, rabbits can be raised in any type of environment, whether it be country, suburb, or city, and they fit easily into most family settings. A rabbit makes a friendly, low-maintenance family pet and is a good size animal for children as well as adults to care for. In addition, it doesn’t take a lot of money to get started with rabbits — this project will fit into most family budgets. Although proper equipment contributes to the success of raising rabbits, it is more important for equipment to be functional than fancy.
