How should I price my rabbits?

Question

I have a purebred, show quality tort dutch that im going to breed. the babies will be handled and purebred and show quality. if anyof them have bad makings they will be sold for less. how much should i sell the good ones and how much should I sell for the bad ones?

Answer 1

It doesn't matter what the parents are. The price should depend on the quality of the rabbit in question.

Next, check and see what people charge for Dutch in your area. I would expect show quality to be around $30-50, possibly more if they have earned legs, are registered grand champions, or are proven brood does.

Brood animals are animals that may have disqualifications like a torn ear, a missing toenail, etc., that keep them from being able to show. But do not have genetic DQs. These rabbits can still be used for breeding. They should be sold for around $25-30, depending on quality and the quality they produce.

Mismarked babies should be sold as pets, and they should be priced between $15-25, depending on what pets sell for in your area.

Answer 2

If both parents are show quality and have full pedigrees you can ask from $20-$50 if they are Grand Champions (parents) then a little more. The pet quality ones (mismarked) should be sold as pet only with no pedigrees. Sell them for $10-$15

I sell my Mini Rex that are pedigreed for $25-$40 each. I give discounts to youth breeders and 4H kids.

Answer 3

I would personally call a local petstore (SuperPetz, PetCo, or PetSmart) and see what they charge for their rabbits.
