Feeding raw Rabbit meat?

We live on acreage and have an abundance of rabbits who live to chew on our vegetation. We were thinking it might be beneficial to start introducing raw rabbit meat into our boys diet.

Any thoughts or advice?

I think rabbit meat is a great! Thor doesn't them but I also had the thought when the little critters kept tearing up our garden.

For wild meat you may want to make sure its been frozen solid for a week before feeding, just to kill parasites, but I do know of folks who feed it directly. Either way go for it!

We feed quite a bit of rabbit! Easy whole food (natures perfect 80-10-10), easy and cheap to produce as well. I agree with Ruth wild rabbit I would freeze esp. if you have tularemia in your area. If you feed a lot of it with little else you may want to add in EFA's as rabbit meat is low in them.
