LOL I would think this girl is very tasty,but I REALLY want babies out of her,since she is of showable quality,with grand champions on both sides,and I have bred her so my neice and nephew have bunnies to show at the fair! Other wise,she is toast!

You do realize of course that having the kids name their dinner was not a good idea right?
I think they are used to it now. They know that only 4 will make it past a few months. I don't think they realize that in a few weeks all the chicks will look different. Anyways, I kill rabbits all the time, and they still name them. I just tell them all the time that we are eating them. They also name the goldfish we buy at the store and then feed to our turtles.

Ahhh. Raising cold blooded................nah.
Good deal.
We used to sit at the dinner table and review the atributes of whichever cow/hog/bunny we were eating for that meal.
The kids learned not to get attached to the livestock. They would name the breeders/hens because they knew those were going to be around for a while.
If you didn't bring jerky what did I just eat?
Hopefully it gives them a deeper understanding of life and death, and where our food comes from. I never had this when I was a kid, so I am learning a lot. My mom has an immune deficiency, so pets were generally relegated to fish. Although, we did have bees for a time, and two ducks that roamed the yard freely and completely devoured any bugs inside the fence line. My wife has a harder time than the kids. She has a hard time dressing a frozen, store bought turkey. But, she is learning as well. I am sure eventually she will be cutting the heads off the fryers like the best of them.
