I heard in one of your podcasts (I don't remember which one because I am listening to both new and old ones) you mention that Joel Salatin's son is raising tractored rabbits without parasites from the yard. I would love to hear more about this.

Are there plans available for the tractors?
What is the lawn made of (mowable meadow)?
How does he handle the breeding process from beginning to end?
How does he do this in the winter with snow on the ground?
What breed of rabbit is he using?
How did they get past the parasite issues?

I posted a summary of what I know about Daniel Salatin's rabbits over in the critters -> rabbits forum: https://permies.com/t/31615/rabbits/Geoff-Lawton-Rabbits
 
If we don't do the shopping, we won't have anything for dinner. And I've invited this tiny ad:
