I must say, ur energy/ personality is a major plus when dealing with this subject matter. As an animal lover AND having to change the way we do life ....this is so difficult for me. Ur compassion towards ur animals and BALANCE in the cycle of life, Wow for me it is! Thank you for who and how u are. Ur wonderful voice/heart is helping me go down a path with the encouragement that I can do this ...(Never was bothered when shopping in a grocery store in the meat section.) Ty again , what a big heart u have!!!

@@SageandStoneHomestead I made a rabbit and shrimp paella. It came out very nicely. This is the first rabbit I cooked -- my takeaways: the meat was a bit firmer but otherwise very similar to chicken; it was drier than most chicken (but I may have overcooked it a bit). This was a store bought rabbit and at $6.99/lb, was about 3 times the cost of a chicken -- given the similarity in taste not worth the price differential. I suspect the store price reflects the lack of popularity and if one were raising rabbits, they would be similar in price to chicken. Again, thanks for a great video and I'm looking forward to exploring more of your content.

@@jimtroester71 interesting I've never made that dish but we find that rabbit is a softer texture than chicken! It can't be subbed in every recipe and do well, because rabbit lacks a lot of the fat chicken has, it is usually cooked at a lower temp for a longer time, often covered with foil or some kind of sauce or liquid to help retain moisture. It definitely is not worth the price unless you raise it, in my opinion!! We sometimes will sell 2.5-3lb rabbits for $15 and people think that's high. That's better than market value. Last time I saw it for sale it was 7.99/lb!

The sharp bones on the legs is exactly why I don't snip the legs the way you do when processing them. Cut bones are sharp bones. Once you skin down the rabbit, it's simple to just dislocate those joints and cut through the tissue, so you just have the full, cartilage ended bones. It really only takes a couple extra seconds to bend and dislocate the paws from the legs.

Truthfully the bones are not a big deal unless you want to vacseal the meat, the dislocation is a great tip though!

South Africa from my urban beach backyard farm. Thank you for all your advise. I do agree with all your methods as this is the only senseble way to do things. I desperatly had to to feed my self and ended up +- the same way as you. After a lot of desperatly hard work and 4 years later i am ok. I am to old now and just try to maintain wat i have. Yes on over cast days solar power is not good for any cooking or caning and the freeser's get's priority. I have a tiny wood stove, and a alcahol stove. The alcahol i get from fermenting my over ripe bananas and other frute. The hart of the destiled i keep for medsine if needed. 🥀

If I'm packaging say, 3 or 4 rabbits, I put all the forelegs in one package, rear legs in a second, saddles (what you're calling backstraps) in yet another. Reason is there's so much more meat on the rear legs and saddles than on the forelegs that if cooked together, by the time the rear legs & saddles are cooked, the forelegs may be overcooked. A guy showed me that years ago, he was right, & I've been doing it this way ever since. Try it, I think you will like it better, too. Thanks for the video, very well done!

Saving this video for after I process my first rabbits. I have 7 of them that are 9 weeks old. I'm not sure if I should process now, or wait another week or two so they can gain a bit more meat. They're California rabbits, but I feel like they're so little at 9 weeks. That and I'm a little nervous about the processing. I've never done it before and really wish I had someone to walk me through it.

Sometimes they can look little but weigh a good deal. At 9 weeks they should be 4.5 or 5 lbs. If you've got the feed and time it doesn't hurt to take them out longer. They don't get tough as they age.

@@SageandStoneHomestead That's what I've been worried about. I don't want to wait too long and have them end up getting tough because I've read a lot of things saying if you wait too long, they become tough. I've also heard it gets harder to process them too, that the connective tissue is stronger making it harder to skin them. I don't want my first attempt to be too difficult. I have 7 9 week olds, 5 5 week olds, and she just had another litter 3 days ago. I have a colony set up, but I moved the buck into a cage in the colony because I don't want my doe getting too worn out from having so many babies back to back. I haven't counted the new litter, but by just looking in, I'm thinking she may have had at least a dozen. I put the 9 week olds with the buck so momma isn't fighting all of them for resources. I want to build a separate side for the males to also have their own colony. I tried sexing them, but at 9 weeks, either they're all girls or I'm just not good at telling the difference. I tried checking the buck for comparison, but he's mature and very obviously male. 😂 Is it true that they can start reproducing at 12 weeks or is it a bit longer for California rabbits? I don't want a bunch of inbred babies, but I also don't want a separate cage for every single rabbit either. 😂

@@kraziecatclady yea they can breed at 12 weeks! And you'll even see females mounting each other so that behavior isn't a good indicator either. They don't get tough with age, males are harder to skin no matter what but it's not like it's the worst thing for sure!

Yes, most of the time we do. 1 cup salt to about 2 gallons of water for at least a day but up to a week.

I'm curious if there's any downside of deboning the rabbit meat. My wife is particular about bones in meat. I know it's a little wasteful of the meat, but does it affect the flavor/texture/tenderness?
@SageandStoneHomestead
@SageandStoneHomestead 3 ай бұрын
It would not affect flavor or tenderness at all to take the bones out! You can definitely do that :)

Does the breast taste different than the legs? I haven’t had in 35 years and it tasted like dark meat chicken. I’m starting to breed meat rabbits 🐇

Yes! The back of the rabbit (loin) tastes and has the texture of white meat chicken. The legs are more like dark meat in a way but not exactly like chicken either!
