Yes they are game. I will stew with veg in the slow cooker or on top of the stove.
I may also mix with gravy and make rabbit pie in fact I have some goose gravy left over from Sunday I may well do rabbit pie for tomorrow or Friday.
Sorry to bore - but I copied a tiny portion of the imm. bill - this one interests me.

Has anyone heard how this will be accomplished?
The company I worked for looked into biometrics for time-keeping, and established it to be too problematic. Certainly not an exact science.
What? Is this the beginning of microchipping humans, as in animals?
Blahs are all mine.
Welcome to FreeRepublic, and the Dose. You’ll learn more here about the President than any place in the world.
that’s a new one to me
we use to go up to my cousin’s farm and help kill pigs and a cow or two, the whole family would butcher and get their meat that way. When I was young my grandma would actually make lye soap at that time, since you need pork lard. just like the olden days, she had a witch’s kettle and a fire in the farm yard...boy those cracklins were good!!!!
It IS adorable!
(great memories, huh) shhhhh - we’re not supposed to talk about it! :) I have a few of my own. Wasn’t so great tho, when I was a kid.
Early baptism of fire into reality.
I believe Roger Hedgecock was talking about it on Tuesday afternoon.
Well .. compromise is fine .. but selling out to La Raza is not my idea of a compromise.
And .. the govt can’t keep track of 600,000 felons in the USA .. how on earth are they going to track over 12 million people to make sure they comply with the law. That just seems like an overwhelming task to me .. making it a tad bit unrealistic.
I don’t know .. I just heard Roger Hedgecock reading it on his program on Tuesday. You might check out his website and see if he has it listed.

What an adorable little boy! He sure looks happy to be there, doesn’t he?
*snort* What’s Bloomberg doing? Looks like “Talk to the Hand”! He doesn’t look quite so comfortable in those surroundings as the First Lady.
I’m with You on the pet vs for eating rabbits...They are put here for us as food too.(As are all animals. But pet ones are out off oven/stove/pots/stomachs. LOL!
Though I don’t care for the taste of game meat ‘cause it’s ...well...too gamey tasting!
