Coatesy900 0 Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 When its like 50pence each, it works out you can save more money feeding to ferts rather than buying dry food. one rabbit will feed my two for nearly a week, and they would eat around 2-3 quidworth of dry food in that time...

za9za00 0 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 If anyone can supply in batches of 100-200 (week / fortnight) anywhere upto 100 miles from Manchester I'd take them at £1.35-£1.50 gutted and skinned. Don't mind traveling further for larger quantites (400 - 600 a month) Andrew When its like 50pence each, it works out you can save more money feeding to ferts rather than buying dry food. one rabbit will feed my two for nearly a week, and they would eat around 2-3 quidworth of dry food in that time...
