fo5ter Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Theres something not quite right about that! genius though - I woud never have come up with the idea of exploding a rabbits guts through its ****! Definately something im going to try out myself, under experimental conditions of course How come I have never heard of this before? surely if its a good method we would all have heard of it sooner? I have a feeling that the inside of the rabbit is going to be full of **** where something has burst - he doesnt show you that bit... alright for £1 per carcase hawk food though i suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George1990 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 It's normally called pop-gutting. Looks a bit grim if you ask me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobyb525 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 If that works it will be so much better after lamping etc than gutting them with a knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richie223 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 bloody hell, never seen that before, is the bunny ok to eat after its guts have been pushed through its hoop??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc110381 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 That's a pretty good video IMO. Nice shooting with the .22lr. In skilled hands it really is a great bunny calibre. Has anyone actually tried this method of gutting? Is it ok for human use or just to lighten them up before feeding to your snakes or ferrets?

Has anyone actually tried this method of gutting? Is it ok for human use or just to lighten them up before feeding to your snakes or ferrets? That's what I'd like to know, I shoot hundreds of rabbits a year and I've never heard of this!! Will they still be ok to feed to me or the dog??? If they are then I'm def on board. It might actually make the rabbit easier to skin cos they'll be looser of themselves?? Edited September 1, 2009 by Glensman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glensman Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Found this: Remove the entrails by squeezing. 1.Apply pressure from the bottom of the rib cage while moving your hand down to the rabbit's anus. 2.Repeat this process until you can feel the entrails loosen. 3.Be careful not to burst the bowel or intestine. Doing so will spoil your meat. 4.Spread your legs, and hold the rabbit by the front legs. 5.With the rabbit facing you, flip the rabbit down with moderate pressure. 6.Don't flip the carcass around too hard, or you might be wearing a hat of rabbit entrails. 7.The entrails will exit the rabbit through his anus.

stubby Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Id say only do it, if you find you have left your knife at home you need a really tight grip, otherwise you burst the **** bag what actually happens is everything gets force into a rear leg, not the bum hole, continue squeezing and the skin around the foot pops and it comes out, have used this method on a few occassions, not a lover of it, saddle and legs get tainted, even puts me off giving it to the ferts if you want a quick method of gutting, try watching this, we slowed down the actions, so easier to see, but once practised, you get faster, after lamping we can do 50 rabbits in just under 3 minutes, one person slices and pulls the belly, then next person pulls internals out, leaving liver/kidney etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubix Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Stubby, I have no sound on this machine so can't tell if you are explaining this as you go so can I ask - when you pull the skin back do you tear it off or leave it hanging , and what part of the guts do you grab to pull them out, and do you not need to free the back end off - just pull and it all comes away? Cheers, C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
activeviii Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 I did the push last night on 4 rabbits. the buck was very tuff but went in the end. this morning i skinned them, no good for the butcher but for friends and dogs there fine. when you squeeze them you will feel a pop, this is the flesh popping, one more squeeze and the skin pops and the insides fall out. one little shake and its all on the ground. very quick and no mess at all but you end up with a big ripped pocket that the butcher will not like so i will only be doing this on rabbits for friends. I thought i would try it out but back to the knife for me I'm afraid. Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, C. yes, tear the belly open, leave the flap hanging, this can be removed later when skinning, I normally put them in the freezer with the fur on, seperating them in layers of five with plastic bags, saves them all sticking together once the belly is open, simply insert two fingers, one either side of stomach, you'll be able to feel the stomach/throat tube, squeeze fingers together and pull away in a downward motion, everything comes out that you dont want, leaving kidneys and liver intact although I normally hold the front and rear legs in both hands, bend rabbit backwards, and with a flinging motion, launch the intestines etc into a hole (previously dug) then do the finger bit to remove stomach whatever way is used, depends on how much of the belly skin is pulled back, if you pull back to rear legs, you can remove all in one go, as per video Edited September 7, 2009 by stubby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fo5ter Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 I tried the push gutting technique last night and couldnt do it, i did it exactly as he dos on the video. I squeezed until my hands hurt but nothing happened. After that i went back to the knife - 11 rabbits in 3 minutes is good enough for me. Like I said before - if this was such a brilliant method we would all have been doing it this way already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codling99 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 i tried it ,didnt work for me,i got small hands so didnt help,just mushed all the guts . ill stick to knicking the fur,pull off showing belly,cut a slit in belly,hold by ears and back legs and flick guts out in one go,clean hands too.skin at home then.
