Rabbit Breeding?

[Flyrella]

But i guess jorbtar didnt want us to have 200q rabbits by the end of the month.

well, chickens would grow faster anyway. So lets say, they should become adult after the same time as chicks (which is more or less true for real rabbits) and pregnancy time should be a bit shorter than for sheeps.

Yes, it takes 5 days for bunnies to be born.
If you had read the previous page you would have seen this was answered already.

Lol, you're lucky, I have 3 pairs of breeding rabbits and still only have the one baby ...

I just started my rabbit raising, was a pain to catch them since chasing them on horseback results in their death. I had to huff it on foot.

now we need RAT, HEDGEHOG, and SQUIRREL raising structures...

My observations so take it with a gain of salt.

Rabbit hutches are not layed out optimally. Column wise you can lay them out as R_R_R_ and bunny needs to be moved. Row wise 1, 2 or 3 bunnies down But don't forget a male rabbit.
I you do 2 rabbits down with one space between, you can place the baby bunny on the last 2 rows, but with a 1 week (so far) growth cycle, those few spaces will get filled fast (remember bunnies need a 4 square space just like chicks)

Here's what I have noticed so far. The female will lay a bunny if there is a free spot behind her, and the bunny needs a typical 4 square to grow.

So rate of rabbits breeding... am I the only one who feels it's way too slow by comparison to the other livestock? Our horses are breeding faster than our rabbits. Dev's, can we speed this up a touch or so please?
