        Do $2 rabbits have a chance at happiness?  The guy on this farm says the rabbits are too big for snake food and most people tell him they will be pampered pets.  I know that’s what they say, but I’ve seen some pretty large snakes and at prices less than a chicken, in a time of soaring food prices, who wouldn’t want a ‘pet’ for their crock pot?

        If you are in that area, maybe you can help or there is anything else you could do, to help those poor bunnies. The ad says they are New Zealands, but apparently there are Norwegian Blacks, Whites, Black and whites!! Here’s the craigslist link:

          Does he really have 150 rabbits. That’s alot – I think it’s sad but I think they may end up in a bad situation although it cannot be any worse than what it is. I cannot imagine that many rescues have the resources either to take on this many rabbits at once.

                My guess is that it’s leftover breeder stock from Easter. The money may go to a charity but the buns will mostly be going to snakes.

                That’s why they’re keeping the girls.  You only need one male bun to impregnate them all.  It’s a bunny-mill as far as he breeds them to sell them.  Guess he just overestimated the numbers for Easter.

                    Most people I work with always flag these type of posts – if enough people flag the post it is removed from Craigslist, I am not sure if that is much of a solution but it is what was recommended to me when I previously encountered posts like these. I can’t even READ that section of craigslist – it breaks my heart.
