My opinion is that dressed meats are not whole foods and not a complete meal. While it may work for a short term solution, it is not a long term diet.
The hair and feathers are not a big deal since they are large, insoluble fibers. But the liver is a valuable source of Vitamins A, D, and iron. The fat under the skin would be a necessary part of the diet as we all need fat and cholesterol to absorb fat soluble vitamins and manufacture certain hormones.
As for what I feed, I either purchase frozen rabbits or buy them freshly killed at a local pet store. They cost about $5 frozen or $10-$12 freshly killed. I feed one 5-6# rabbit twice monthly.
