INTRODUCING HANNA WETTER!
Every time that I have a student on the show who is raising rabbits, I am intrigued by this business. Our guest today, Hanna Wetter, calmly said “just five times” when I asked her how many litters of rabbits she has per year. I couldn’t help but laugh. Compared to cattle, pigs, goats, etc, five litters per year is really significant. This was made even more clear when Hanna told me that she sells her rabbits for around $50 each and gets 4-5 kits in every litter. Wow! Great business.
I hope you enjoy getting to know Hanna Wetter.
