Is there a Rabbit News like we have the Dairy Goat Journal or how about the local animal auctions, feed stores, or the local farm vet or even 4-H. They all might be able to help you. Good Luck !!!

Hi Patty, If you can't find anyone, email me privately and I'll look some NY/NJ breeders for you in my ARBA yearbook.

Patty, there is a guy on the Black Lake Road in Ogdensburg or Morristown that sells rabbits year round. I'll try to get his # and email you. Sometimes he advertises in the Pennysaver. Polly

Patty,

I found an ad that appears to be a rabbitry selling out. There are 50 New Zealand does, 6 bucks, and assorted equipment for $2,000 in Greenwich, NY (Washington County). Look in www.wantaddigest.com and click on horses and livestock. Scroll down to "rabbits".

Good luck!

Patty, If you go to Ogdensburg or Morristown, let me know. We can meet. I know some people at the Hackettstown co-op aution but don't get down there any more because I work Tuesdays. If you can't find another source, maybe I can get in touch with someone.

Well patty, you are a disgusting person for wanting to eat rabbits. Willing to kill those innocent, defendless, cute and furry animals for meat makes you a heartless person. It is sickening to know that a person like you would go that far for meat.

-- Patty (twoloveone@aol.com), April 06, 2002.

Well if you think I am disgusting I hope you don't eat any meat at all . Whats disgusting is the way animals are treated that you buy in the supermarket . So by what you are is it is ok to kill and eat ugley animals ?
