    Rabbits wanted. North Island only. $$ paid.

    Hi All,

    I work for Game Plan Ltd. We are the only certified pest animal processor in the North Island.
    We process into raw petfood only.
    We have a plant in Whangarei.
    We are looking to source rabbits, hares, possums and wallabies from the North Island.
    We already work with hunters but can't get enough product.
    We have regulations and guidelines that we have to abide by in sourcing product to ensure it is poison free- landowner needs to sign a poison use statement.
    We are looking for hunters than can supply more than 100 rabbits/hares a week especially.
    Rabbits/Hares need to have paunch removed in field and then frozen for us to pick up and process.
    We pay a per kilo rate upon pick up.
    Anyone keen?

    PM me.
    Only reliable, serious hunters please.

    Take the boys out of school and put them to work on this Dundee or at least get them to put in four solid hours each night after they have done their homework.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Welcome Game Plan. I would have thought that a business like yours would have been better placed in Otago from a logistical point of view. Sort of rabbit where the rabbits are.
    Savage1 and Toby like this.

    We process in Whangarei, but we will uplift from anywhere in the North Island. We pay same per kilo rate for hares as rabbits.

    Yes and No. Noone else doing it in North Island and we also do on farm slaughter of cows and horses in Northland. Too cold down there anyway.

    Hi Dundee.
    Plant is in Whangarei, but we will pick up from anywhere, within reason, in the North Island. Want as many as possible. PM for details if you keen. If the numbers are really big we can come to an arrangement for a freezer room onsite.

    Hares and wallabies good too guys. Same rate per kilo for hares as rabbits. Higher per kilo rate for the Darma and Parma wallabies.

    $2.50 a kilo. Animal needs to have paunch removed. And there is paperwork, but only a form to get the landowner to fill in. Have guys up this way that average 30 animals an hour, so it pays OK. Average rabbit is 800-900 grams.

    PM replied to. Can only take animals on the NZFSA registered list of pest animals and goats are not on there, which is a little stupid really...
