Went For A Walk Last Night.

[Jonjon79 13,358]

I was feeling pretty rough yesterday from a good dose of man flu (not those sniffles that the missus gets). After sitting here pissing with sweat for a while, I decided to take a walk round my nearest permission.

 

At 10pm packed up my HW100 and headed off to a rugby club 10 mins away.

There's 7 warrens in the banks around the perimeter. To be honest, I didn't care if I didn't get anything - the way I was feeling, it was just nice to be out in the cool night air in a tee shirt for an hour.

 

As it turned out, I did manage to get 3 from different areas.

I always gut the rabbits on site but, leave the livers in - I like them with tomato and english mustard.

 

I know the livers are also a sign of the health of the rabbit. The attached picture is the liver from the larger rabbit.

I wondered if someone could help me with a bit more info for what I'm looking at here?

There is an earlier thread on here discussing the phenomena, sadly no pictures.

 

I am on my second bout of Man Flu in 5 weeks. This time the Dr gave me a 2 week sick note, to make sure I clear it from my system. Work aren't impressed. At least I've stopped coughing up melted cheese now.

The mild winter hasn't killed off the usual bacteria

That liver looks like coccidiosis (I googled it), and opinion is that it is unfit for consumption, couldn't find anything about the rest of the rabbit that the liver came from though. I'd rather be safe than sorry and discard the liver and the rabbit.

'Melted cheese'

 

At least you have a couple of weeks to go shooting - I mean resting and recuperating. Try it, I slept like a baby last night

Cheers. I just had a look at that. It's a shame to bin the poor bugger but, I'm not going to risk it.

How many of us field dress a rabbit "at night" and thoroughly inspect the livers i wonder ?

Would the cooking process not clear the carcass of anything unwanted ?

[villaman 9,983]

I all ways look at the liver . As long as you cook the rabbit well it should be OK

[David.evans 5,323]

Gutted there and then , all of it , thrown in the hedge for Mr foxy

And washed out as soon as I get home

I went ratting last night for the medicinal benefits.

No success but I saw a couple. I think washing my ducks had disturbed them too much.

 

The two I saw, I could hear them pushing through the wire to get into the duck run, then they whizzed down a pallet that gives a bit of shelter to the ducks.

Then it was like race n chase. They wouldn't keep still, then vanished behind a bath.

 

I am going to put some white melamine down the sides of the run, so the rats show up better. And move those pallets.

 

I am using a .22 Pro Sport with a red T20 torch.
