Fifteen does and 2 bucks and their litters will produce approximately 1 ton of manure. A doe and her litter will produce approximately 0.025 cubic feet per day, exclusive of any bedding or wash water. Another method of estimating manure production is to multiply the amount of feed consumed by the rabbits by 1.5 to 2 to obtain the total dry matter produced.
