What this sheet is for

Keep each doe's breeding history in one place so that decisions about which to keep are made on evidence.

Who it is for

Rabbit breeders, smallholders raising meat rabbits and pedigree exhibitors.

How to use it

  1. Record the mating date and work your own expected kindling date from it.
  2. Check the nest and record what you found, without disturbing more than you must.
  3. Record losses; they are the figure that improves husbandry.
  4. Retire does on the record rather than on a feeling.

What is on the sheet

The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.

Questions

How often can a doe be bred?

The sheet prints nothing on this, because the answer differs sharply between commercial and hobby systems and is a welfare question as much as a productivity one. Your breed society or vet is the source.
