Cheers Arry That’s not bad I was getting 25p a rabbit from the zoo back in the late 80s and 50p from the game dealer game dealer took unmarked ones only zoo took anything the dogs had caught so if you had a hard mouthed dog the bruising didn’t matter, trout were a £1 each at the same era so much more lucrative Quote Link to post Share on other sites
