In this episode, we tackle one of the biggest challenges new rabbit raisers face: how early excitement turns into hesitation, and how domestication syndrome leads beginners to treat livestock like pets. We explain why processing day becomes such a mental roadblock—and how to avoid that from day one.

To wrap it up, I share two hunting stories—Juan’s first deer and the late-season 8-point I tagged during muzzleloader. Reminders of why we raise our own food and practice these skills.

Juan's First Deer
Late Season Buck in a Blizzard

1. Build Your Setup First
2. Create a Processing Station Early
3. Map Out a Breeding Schedule
4. Track Everything
5. Set a Clear First Goal
   

1. Use Your Processing Station Often
   Monthly use builds confidence and keeps your program moving.
2. Review Records Weekly
   Seeing progress keeps you motivated and focused.
3. Maintain Equipment
   Sharp knives and solid cages prevent procrastination.
4. Stick to Your Breeding Calendar
   Missed dates slow the whole system, so stay on schedule.
5. Remember Your “Why”
   Food security, self-sufficiency, and a full freezer will keep you committed.

It’s that time of year again — when the chores are caught up, the rabbitry’s on autopilot, and I can finally disappear into the woods. In this episode, I walk you through the first half of my hunting vacation — the heartbreak of a missed buck, the lessons learned, and the hunt that finally came together.
We’ll also chat about listener emails, new video projects, and what’s next for the rabbitry and the podcast. Grab a coffee, settle in, and let’s talk bucks, bees, and backyard living.
