Butchering Service:
ONE, I repeat, ONE person will be performing this service during the event. Therefore, due to time limitations, the number of rabbits that will be butchered during the event will be limited. Butchering will take place at an outdoor location and will begin at 9:30am. Services will be offered first to those who have pre-paid for reservations. Once all reservations have been served, walk-ins will be taken on a first come, first served basis, and will be restricted based on time limitations. We reserve the right to refuse service to any rabbit that arrives dead, appears unwell, distressed, or otherwise unsuitable for butchering. If you plan to bring more than 2 rabbits for butchering, reservations are strongly recommended.
Rabbits will be humanely dispatched using cervical dislocation. Carcasses will be skinned, gutted, and have the head and feet removed. Pelts are not guaranteed to be whole, undamaged, usable, or suitable for resale. Rabbit owner may elect to retain any or all parts of the rabbit. Rabbits will be handled and processed in the same manner that we process our own rabbits for our own consumption, however as this service will take place at an outdoor location, and we are not a certified or inspected food handling facility, butchered rabbits will be labeled as "Not For Human Consumption."
After butchering, your rabbit will be returned to you inside a one-gallon size zip top bag (1 rabbit per bag). Rabbit owner assumes all responsibility for safe handling and transportation of the meat. An appropriately sized cooler of ice is recommended. Ice is not provided but is available at the I-81 Exit 12 gas stations (3 miles away), and at Walmart (2 miles away).
Rabbit owner must remain on the premises during the butchering of their own rabbits.
