Hi, all -- didn't want to get TOO specific in the subject line... I just need a little encouragement and some helpful hints as to the slaughter of rabbits for meat. One of our does had her first litter 12 days ago, and I know it's still several months away, but every time I look at the little furballs, I think 'can I do the deed.' I'm trying to be matter-of-fact about it, our children know that we're going to be eating these rabbits (though they are being allowed to each keep a doe as a pet/future breeder), and I've got a good book with pictures (and I have no problem at all with doing chickens - done hundreds of them). I also assisted a friend do a couple of sheep, so I have firsthand experience with skinning and gutting. Any experiences that you'd care to share would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
