Raising Rabbits the Modern Way May 19, 2009 Jessica A. Fry (pa) I got this book from our local library when I first started with rabbits. While it is filled with tons of very very valuable information, I would strongly advise anyone wanting rabbits to get the NEW version of this book "Storye's Guide to Raising Rabbits".
Generalized information ,too little detail April 26, 2003 M. Price (Palm Beach , Florida) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a good book if you have never owned rabbits and this will be one of a few a books that you plan on reading, because despite the authors experience and education on the subjects in the book he seems as if he is rushing it just a little, granted it is old (last pub date was 1988), and also as if he is preaching his way rather than letting you develop experience through guidance through learning your own way, there are ways to screw up and there are those who get it no matter what. I highly suggest that you do your research before you consider owning rabbits, I disagree with the authors view on raising rabbits primarily for meat, with my animals I raise primarily for the coats and angora wool which I tan the hides and spin with down from my chickens) and sell them locally, meat is mearly a by product for me and believe me it can really help on your grocery bill. Just do yourself and all the rest of us who are in this business a favor, educate yourself first before you even buy a rabbit.
It's old January 5, 2000 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
this is a great book but it was revised in 1988. That is hardly the modern way. Actually, most things don't change but I found a few things that are not true (like what kind of hay to feed). Any way, consider all your possibilities before investing in this book.
Not quite enough November 3, 1999 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
As beginners, we didn't feel this book gave us enough detailed information to care for the rabbits confidently.
This book is good for commerical and show rabbits. March 28, 1999 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
As a small homstead rabbit rasier, I was disappointed in buying this book. It seemed to be only for the commerical and show rabbit rasiers.
