We get dozens of rabbits each year from the rabbit colony cannabis garden. Our silver fox rabbits dress out around 3-1/2lbs. We use a live trap to harvest them. Processing is fast less than 10min from when it leaves the trap to when it's resting in the fridge. The tools are basic: hammer handle to stun, rebar to cervically dislocate which kills it, string to hang it for skinning and gutting and kitchen shears to do all the necessary cutting. We save the pelts in the freezer and tan them in large batches. One of the most resilient sources of protein and nutrition on the homestead.
