>>So are you saying there isnt really a market for them?
>>I have mini rex for the pet market but I have larger rabbits for eating, they dont usually sell good for pets.
>> So far Ive not sold any of the large buns and just use them for ourselves and our dogs.I was hoping to make a bit of money off the NZW to pay for the food expenses...IDK I may just end up canning all the big rabbits and just keeping the minis if I cant find a good market for the bigs.

I know here there is little market for anything that size just 'cause GIANTS are illegal in NY. So largely you are working with boa constrictors as the largest thing. Some folks come up from Pa for feeders but even then it is a awful big bunny for most folks. And like I say, most folks hit the livestock auctions for $5 bunnies to feed. Where you are might have more market. You could throw an ad in the paper and see if you get anything.
