h.22 1 Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Hi All Quick question for you all, where do you sell your rabbits to (eg. pub, game dealer) and how much for? Also in what condition (eg. just gutted, skinned and gutted)? Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Our rabbits regularly go to local butchers who buy in ammounts of tens or twentys, always fresh, gutted and skinned for around £2 to £2.50. I am trying to get this price increased without pissing the butchers off as they sell the rabbits for almost double what they pay me. Quote Link to post
JoeD 24 Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 I sell to the butchers and it all depends one butchers I sell too gives me £1.50 skinned and gutted, whereas another gives me £3 skinned and gutted. I want to try and find a pub/restaurant to sell too this year though as I would think they charge a £ or 2 more. Joe Quote Link to post
h.22 1 Posted September 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 christ im not doing so well here then, i get £1.50 for a skinned and gutted rabbit but they will only take about a dozen every 3 weeks and i get £1 for a skinned and gutted rabbit from a game dealer but both these buyers will take them frozen Quote Link to post
