weight question

[sheandg]

At what age do you guys use their weight to record for the pedigrees?

Before I sell them. Age and maturity doesn't matter, they just need an accurate weight at time of sale.

Yeah, if they are getting sold, their weight at that time goes on the pedigree. If they're not going to be sold, I update the pedigree at 6 months (senior age for 4 class rabbits, intermediate for 6 class) and again at 8 months (Senior age for 6 class rabbits).

Since some rabbits don't fully mature (finish growing) until 14 months, I may update it again.

Just be aware that once you register the rabbit, the weight at that time is recorded, and this is the final weight that is on theregistration certificate. This can't be changed.

Idon't record junior/int. weights on sale animals - only senior weights. However, we do track weights on larger juniors that may need to be "bumped up".
