leegreen 2,180 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 yeah its a tapeworm cyst mate,if you freeze it for a few days it will kill them i give them to the dogs once ive cut it out It is a tape worm cyst, but it'll take more than a few days to kill it. A couple of weeks to be sure, tape worm are resilient to hard frosts. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Duncan 802 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Also agree - seen plenty of bunnies with the tapeworm cysts, usually with just eggs rather than hatching though.I discard any infected bunnies as a matter of course. Tape worm cysts are easy to spot though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chook1 184 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Once meat is cooked the eggs /larve if youve missed any will be killed, but you need to make sure you cook it properly. Its not only rabbits that carry tapeworm cysts like this - you can get tapeworm from undercooked pork and beef also fish Is everyone just gone turn vegi as you may as well.
