We raise our rabbits using no growth hormones or antibiotics so that
you don't have to worry about after effects that those might cause for your animals. We also raise them in wire only cages off of the ground to avoid diseases and parasites common in other types of environments.
Most of these are young rabbits. Many are between the age of eight to twelve weeks. That means the meat will be moist and tender, just like you would purchase for yourself. It typically takes a rabbit eight weeks to reach the weight of five pounds, which is average butchering weight. If you are interested in a smaller rabbit, we can arrange that. A two pound rabbit will be approximately four weeks old.
We believe that it is very important we dispatch our rabbits humanely. We use cervical dislocation as we feel it causes only momentary discomfort to our rabbits prior to their passing. In addition, there is no gassing or drugs given that you have to worry about being in their system that could affect your animal's health.
As we continue to produce more and smaller rabbits, we will use some CO2 tanks for the tiny rabbits (under 2#) and the quail and other chicks that we will be raising. This will be necessary in order dispatch these smaller animals as cervical dislocation is not workable for the smaller animals.
Rabbits4U shows the weight of each individual rabbit on the outside of the package for you to assist you in meal planning. Each package may contain two or three rabbits but we mark the packaging with the individual rabbit weights so you know how much you are feeding your pets. If you have special needs, let us know so we can accommodate that.
