>>18397404>If you're gonna do all this you may as well do it with chickenFor economical reasons, chickens are best used for eggs and occasional meat (unwanted roosters), while rabbits are easily able to turn lower-grade feeds, such as garden weeds and common hay, into quality meat that is unlikely to provoke or feed an illness.
Historically, French folks were able to avoid starvation while their crops were confiscated for soldiers, using rabbit meat.
If you continuously eat them before they get large (about 4 weeks or so), there was never enough of them that they would be confiscated, but a family could have enough meat from a small shed of rabbit cages that every night there would be fresh meat. If they had stored the meat in jars, those would have been confiscated. Be an over-picky bitch if you want to, but keep in mind that the average person is not nearly the gaping anus that you make yourself out to be.
