About this listen
Quiet, efficient, and surprisingly powerful—rabbits are changing how small farmers think about backyard livestock. In this three-chapter field guide, you’ll learn why these gentle animals often outperform chickens in feed efficiency, space use, cleanliness, and sustainability. From simple hutches that fit any yard to year-round meat production and ready-to-use fertilizer, rabbits deliver high returns with low effort.
The story moves from setup and comparison, through care and yield, to the balanced truth of how both species can work together for a self-reliant homestead. You’ll see the numbers, the routines, and the mindset that turns quiet hutches into food security and fertile gardens.
Whether you’re starting from a city backyard or expanding a rural plot, this guide gives you a clear, practical path to raising smarter, cleaner, and calmer livestock.
