TAMUK Rabbits
Perfect for our hot climate here in the
Central Valley of California
The Details
TAMUK rabbits are a composite breed developed by Texas A&M University-Kingsville (hence the name).
They were specifically designed to thrive in hotter climates like here in Central California.
Key characteristics of TAMUK rabbits include:
Heat Tolerance: Their genetic makeup, a combination of several breeds, provides exceptional resistance to high temperatures.
Hardy and Vigorous: TAMUKs are known for their robust health and strong constitution.
High Production: They are prolific breeders and efficient converters of feed, making them suitable for meat production.
They are bred for gentleness and are good pets. Other rabbits suffer (often to death) in our heat. Get yourself a rabbit that is made for the Central Valley!
