All meat is processed by a State Licensed facility and labeled for resale. No growth enhancements or antibiotics given. Our Rabbits grow out at natures pace...kept inside in clean pens until 3 weeks, then moved outside to the sunshine and fresh green grass to grow in large movable pens, moved at least once a day, sometime 3 times to provide plenty of grazing.
