Breeding date confusion..

[GoinBackToCali]

So the fairs been the same time every year forever..so we all know when to breed by. Well due to Hurricanes..they have moved all the fairs around to new dates. So my old standbyes are no longer the norm.

Everybody has come up with a different date.. so ya'll help me out.



If the rabbit's need to be 70 days old by March 29th,...I breed when?

I came up with Dec. 19th, but my deductive reasoning skills are weak.

If gestation is 30 days (I don't breed - but that's the norm, right?) then I got the same thing; Dec. 19th.

How long is the average pregnancy? They would need to be born by January 18 to be 70 days old on March 29.

 

[pamnock]

Gestation averages 31 days.

Is it cause they use a redneck calendar or something with extra weekends or something? :biggrin2:

Count back 101 days I think...but that may end up to this month...lol. If you count the 31 days of gestation, plus the 70 days the kits have to be old, then you'll get the day that you should breed...if that makes sense.

I just had to count backwards the other day when I was planning three litters for next year.
