Part 3/9:
While Seth firmly supports the colonization approach, he acknowledges the benefits of hutches, particularly in managing breeding. These structures can effectively prevent unwanted reproduction, which allows for the growth of planned litters and the management of less productive females.
Moreover, hutches can limit rabbits' physical activity, directing their energy towards growth rather than unnecessary exercise. This concentration of feed conversion, similar to principles observed in human physiology, is beneficial when raising rabbits for meat. Additionally, the design of hutches simplifies manure collection, keeping it contained and allowing for easy removal.
