Farmed, bobs. My supply of wild ones has tailed off, so I started breeding them. This is my first crop of NZ/Californian.

Simon, is that you?


id like to know the taste difference between your farmed and wild

i remember my uncle being called to a manor house to cull their
collection of rabbits .. but the meat could only be used as dog food,
the smell from them when cleaning them was horrendous
