Here are some of the most profitable animals you can breed, following several analyses from experts at casinos en ligne.
1. Chickens
Chickens are possibly the most popular animal to raise and breed for profit. Chickens provide many products including meat for food and eggs. Some chicken farmers even sell chicken manure as fertilizer. Grass-fed chicken eggs command a premium. Even feed-fed chicken eggs sell for as much as $3, which offsets the cost of the feed. Chicks can be sold to other farmers or to pet stores, but you may need to meet the store’s requirements.
This can include having your chicks certified, having sufficient room for healthy chicks and your breeding habits. Chicks sold for profit should not be inbred so you should not breed offspring with parents. During the summer roosters can usually be found free or for very low cost. Many homeowners purchase sorted pullets and end up with a surprise rooster that they want to get rid of.
2. Rabbits
Rabbits are one of the fastest reproducing animals. Rabbit meat is starting to become more popular because of its mild flavor, but many people still have emotional hesitations to eating rabbits. Rabbits can be bred for pets and sold to pet stores. There are many adorable varieties of rabbits that quickly capture a child’s heart.

The fiber can be sold commercially or to cottages that produce alpaca wool products.
4. Birds
Pet birds include many varieties that can be sold. Birds generally live at least a decade or two in captivity, which makes breeding more economical. You can raise a specialty bird such as a parrot or a more common bird such as a parakeet.

Birds can be raised for sale to pet stores or pet owners. They can also be bred for aviaries.
