Westy76 546 Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 If there's large cysts cut the limb off and bin/use as bait and eat the rest as long as you not dabbling in cornering the Market for rabbit sushi you'll be ok along as there cooked. Freezing them for 3 weeks kills them dead to be safe to feed to the dogs. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob190364 2,593 Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 do you worry about catching worms off any other meat you eat? what makes rabbit any different? there's probably 100 times more chance of you catch worms from the handles on supermarket shopping trolleys 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
