Is keeping rabbits for the table OT here?

Well, I asked because I recently ate a very nice meal made by my friends wife, of rabbit in gravy with mashed potatoes, cabbage and carrots.sic. I loved it. I didn't know it was rabbit beforehand so it was a bit of a surprise. They have reared their own rabbits but I don't think they have done it with their welfare as a number 1 priority. That pees me off. I would like to breed some to use but only if I can look after them properly, so I would like to hear some advice if anybody has some for me. They are enough of a pest round here that if you eat rabbit some tend to arrive in return for other edible swaps. Just watch out for the lead shot. I have chicken wire round the garden against field boundaries but they still find a way in from time to time. One rabbit can do a surprising amount of damage to a veg patch in a fairly short time.
