Ideation 8,216 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Ok, so the freezers are full already, and i need to empty them in order to keep ferreting. Usually they go for £1.50, gutted, with skins on, to a catfood company. They cant take this lots at the moment, so i was wondering if anyone had any ideas on where i could sell them at a similar price. Not for human consumption though. Few hundred of them. Any ideas??????? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fitchet 788 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Mine all go in bulk to a local game-dealer. Rabbit just seems to be one of those things when you've got loads you cant give them away but when you've got enough to feed the dogs/ferrets/birds every fecker wants a brace ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bird 9,599 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 why not feed most to your dogs, good food for them+ dry meal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ideation 8,216 Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Cheers for the suggestion lads. Game dealer is no good because they are a mix of ferreted, and dogged and so some will be bruised, also they are in their skins, and the price would be pennies anyway. Some will get fed to animals, but we catch more than i can freeze and feed to the animals, they eat them everyday but it doesnt really make a dent. I just make sure i have a freezer full for the end of season, to last me over summer. Something like zoo, petshops, bops, catfood or dogfood is what i need. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fitchet 788 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 I get a quid each from one of the game dealers with skins on. Do what we do and slit the ears of dog caught rabbits and feed them to the mutts And keep hold of the ferreted ones. Id rather buy a bruised bunny than pick shot out of one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malt 379 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Get a few more dogs, ferrets and a BOP - sorted! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Get a few more dogs, ferrets and a BOP - sorted! Or think about investing in a decent mincer that can do rabbit bones. They'll take up less room and you'll be able to keep yourself going over the summer.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
