Are purebred rabbits worth more money than mixed breed rabbits?

Answer by  ddaguno (123)

Yes, they are more expensive especially if they have papers. You can bring them to rabbit shows or conventions and still increase their value if they win ribbons.

Yes, they certainly are as these are genetically better and they might even have better colors than the mixed breed rabbits. The mixed breed might have different colors and they are more prone to diseases.

Purebred rabbits are usually only worth the money if you plan to show them. If you aren't going to do anything with a pedigree, why bother paying for one?

Rabbits aren't a huge money making item. Purebred rabbits are worth more than mixed breeds and if they have papers they are worth even more. A rabbit will also cost more if it has won any ribbons in a show.

Yes, purebred rabbits are worth more than mixed breed rabbits. Purebred rabbits are able to be shown at rabbit conventions and rabbit shows, while mixed breeds are not. It is also difficult to find homes for rabbits that are the offspring of two mixed breed parents, presumably for the same reason purebred dogs spend less time in shelters.
