we're talking 80 rabbits at least here. about half of those rabbits were in cages laying flat on the ground, outside, with a good inch of poop covering the bottoms of them. That's not a day getting away from you...that's at least three. And we've been having rainy weather lately.
I picked up one skin and bones rabbit that was just matted and covered, it had MAGGOTS! It was very clear which rabbits were receiving good care...the dwarfs and mini rexes (those are pet store sale bunnies). and every one else was on the ground receiving less than decent care.
Feeders of the "good rabbits" had pellets and full water dishes. Feeders of everyone else had no water, no feed or just scratch in the bottom. Some were covered for protection from the elements, others were not.
It wouldn't have taken much for the folks here to put those rabbits up on block. He had all kinds of scrap metal sitting around. Get the rabbits that aren't selling up off the ground, out of their own filth and then cover them with tin roofing or something.
These people know how to take care of bunnies...even in a minimalist situation...which is what they are... I Have NO PROBLEM with that. But the disparity that they showed in who got the good care....that was just ick. Meat rabbits, full grown, living in cages the size of a small dog kennel. Mini lops with barely any room to turn around. WHILE the dwarf and mini rexes had room to spare. It's like okay here folks...take care of those big rabbits as well. Angoras so knotted you wondered what was under all that fur. it was sad. I took what I could of them and left.
