 TAMUK-C were developed as a backyard meat rabbit breed. They can be sustained wholly on pellets or pellets and hay but they are also well suited for forage. However, because this is not a specific adaptation of TAMUK-C, it's best to acquire your rabbits from breeders that feed forage if this is an important aspect to you. Anecdotally, there does seem to be a lower incidence of weaning enteritis among TAMUK-C and especially those that feed forage regularly. TAMUK-C were developed as a backyard meat rabbit breed.
