Frozen Rabbit Shortage??

Is anyone else having trouble buying frozen rabbits lately??

I have been all over South Adelaide, and everyone is out!! Heading up north on the weekend, but this is becoming VERY predictable!!!

Other than breeding them myself (which it is looking like I'm going to have to) does anyone know of somewhere in Adelaide that has a decent and ongoing (lol) supply of small rabbits? Or even any mail order (although this would be icky I think)

Rabbit shortage? What about RATS. Can't get big ones anywhere. And there definitely a rabbit shortage here as myxo has been on the rampage for a couple months now. Everybody I know has lost their bunnies

We have a shortage problem pretty much all the time, which is why i was thinking of breeding rats, someone said they can be humanely killed before feeding by CO2, but where exactly am i gonna find that?

You get CO2 from Boc Gas, costs a bit but we use it for other things also (keg beer)...

Sweet! Whats your idea of costs a bit? Just a rough estimate.

I got this off the net

http://www.instructables.com/id/Feed...-way-with-CO2/

but had NO idea what lvl of co2 to use, etc

looks like I'm gonna have to breed my own!! I usually get them from Reptile City, but with demand and their supplier screwing up, they haven't had rabbits in for a while!
