Difficult start

We started raising rabbits a year-and-a half ago. My dad encouraged me to take care of them. They require an hour of your time every day. My mom or our neighbours watch the rabbits when I am at school or busy doing other things.

When I started raising rabbits, the first female had 10 offsprings. But they got infected with an illness similar to chicken pox, with blood coming out of their mouths. Immediately, we called a vet, who advised culling. We had to start again.
