Feel the soft velvety fur on a Rex rabbit, and you can understand why rabbit fur has been used to line mittens and boots for generations.  Oh, hush now, we aren't talking about fluffy, at least now what you think!  
 
Rabbit fur, it's what helps rabbits keep warm in the winter. It has a
great insulating effect and even holds up when wet, though not as perfect as wool.

Rabbits are one of the easiest livestock animals to keep.  Easy to raise, minimal space requirements, and they produce, well............like rabbits.  So if their fur is great for winter, why worry about them? 
Because, like your goats, rabbits have a few things you can do to keep them healthy and happy in winter.

As people look to alternatives for raising their own meat, rabbits usually come  to mind.  Rabbits are a viable choice whether one lives in  the country or the  city.  Rabbits have been a staple for many families through  very difficult  times.

We have been around rabbits all of our lives,   having grown up with my fathers’ vast experience, and continued with our love  of  rabbits, breeding Rex Rabbits by choice.
