Rabbit butchering

[trappingtime0]

Anyone ever do it? Im going to my coworkers tomorrow to butcher a few and we are going to utalize every part of them the carcass for bait the hide will he tanned and the meat eaten. My question is how is the best way to kill it? Iv butchered thousands of chickens but never a rabbit

I have heard breaking the neck is the best way ? Also how do you go about gutting them? Open them lime a deer? Any help would be great! Thanks in advanced

Case skin them just like a fox or coon, skin will pull right off,Clean just like a deer. Not hard at all, and real tastie.

Breaking necks is not as easy as it sounds. Hickory to the head is easier and very efficient. Check for glands on the underside of the thighs close to the groin. Those glands are not very tasty.

i hit them in the head to stunn them then cut their heads off.
