Need opinions on getting rats as big as possible

[cassandra]

What about switching over to rabbits for the burm?

Why not stick with rabbits?

Rabbits are great and I can occ. get them for $8 from a feed store in Pomona, but gas is not great. The idea was to see if I could be self-sustaining...but at the size I can get these rats, Lourdes will mow right through them...

Soooo, yeah...guess I'll downsize the herd and go stock up on buns (call the feed store, see when they get buns in, take the truck, buy enough to fill the freezer).

Thanks for the comments guys!
