[unlacedgecko 1,466]

i have permission to control rabbits in colchester. does any one know of any game dealers near colchester that would be willing to buy my surplus rabbits? alternatively, a butcher or similar. the butchers i have spoken to either dont do rabbit, or have some in already. all suggestions welcome.

 

thanks

cheers mate, but ive already given him a call. has some in stock at the mo, and only takes a few at a time. the golf course where i have permission is over run at the moment. went for a walk last night with the shotgun at dusk, no light, and shot 14. green keeper wants as many gone as possible, so need some where that will take a few, as will be snaring as well as shooting.

The trouble is a lot of butchers wont take shotguned ones some will take rifle head shot ones

but if you are lucky to find an outlet they only seem to want ferreted or snared ones they have got a point

i suppose full of shot is what i get told good luck with finding somewhere soon to sell your rabbits mate

you will proberly have more luck wid the snared ones

Is John Coleman the butcher still buying game? He's not far from you, he will be in the phone book. I've taken several deer to him in the past, might be worth a try. We used to take our rabbits to Jimmy Ling at Hoxne on the Suffolk/Norfolk border, but I believe that he has retired now. The other option is Colchester market, they had several hanging up there the last time that I went, a couple of weeks ago.
