Yeah I know all about it. Its a progress thing. When we got laying hens, the girls were like gross no. But I said we will do it before its over with. Then we got a few "pet" rabbits and I said Id like meaties one day and again gross no. Well we processed our first meat chickens last spring and did a larger batch this fall, 
and this past year I have worked on building and breeding up a nice hutch of French Lops to breed for meaties, and the first one began her prego period today Now she wants rabbit recipes 
our irony how hard you bite on their tales
