I don't have any ready to dispatch yet just want to get things figured out first.
My backyard has no privacy at all, neigbors behind and beside can look into my yard. So I was thinking of doing it in my rabbit shed. I have a 12'x8' shed that will be transformed into rabbit land, hoping to get 20-30 holes and hope to set up a table infront of the window, which would work great for cutting up etc. I could even install my meat grinder out there. Now I would feel odd dispatching rabbits in front of other rabbits. Will they know and be stressed? Should I cover the cages with tarps? Or just hope my neigbors are not bunny huggers(lol). There are a lot of young kids in this area, so I would like to not process animals in view of them. My kids can learn about it, but I am sure some of their more sensitive friends would have problems seeing a bunny become meat. My kids have learned early on that we eat animals and even some of our animals eat animals. It seems like some of he neigbors kids think chicken comes fully cooked!
