Thanks! I hope to get a rabbit and rat soon to show examples. Its really easy to do and if you have to mass kill it only takes a second to do then in the freezer. I should mention in my first post which i will edit now that I think of it:

Corneal reflex- basically poke it in the eye with a finger, if it blinks its still alive and not dead, in this case just twist the head. I usually twist at the end of my final pull down on rabbits and I have never had the corneal reflex crop up. But do not put an animal that is basically just paralyzed into the freezer. You can harvest as many animals as you want with the above method and freeze them right then just make sure you didnt just paralyze it, often times people dont push hard enough and only break their necks, you need to separate the chord from the brain. The neck should stretch out about 2 or 3 extra inches if properly done.


EDIT HELP: How do I edit the first post, its only giving me the option to edit this one?
