Meat rabbits in New Zealand: what to check and what to ask

Live meat rabbits are not priced in the listings we looked at, so the figures here are for rabbit meat sold to people. According to sellers' websites in November 2026, a game rabbit of 800 g to 1 kg was listed at about NZ$45, and rabbit leg meat at about NZ$52 for 0.5 kg. For offers on live animals or processed meat, describe the breed, age and quantity in a request on BlaBlaPrice.

What the price depends on

  • Breed and purpose: meat, breeding stock or pet.
  • Age, sex and whether the animals are kept as a group.
  • Weight at sale, in kilograms.
  • Vaccinations and breeding quality, which the seller should show.
  • City or region, and whether you collect or the seller delivers.
  • Your budget and the number of animals.

Prices are quoted per animal or per kilogram, so ask which one the seller uses before you compare offers.

Welfare rules to follow

New Zealand animal welfare guidance states that rabbits in meat production systems, including breeding does, should not be put on a restricted feed regime, because this compromises their welfare. Ask a seller how their does are fed and housed. Checking this before you buy helps you avoid animals in poor condition and protects your breeding plan.

Season and housing

Summer, December to February, brings heat that rabbits tolerate poorly, so shade and ventilation matter for stock bought in those months. Winter, June to August, means cold nights and more feed, so check the housing before the animals arrive. Name your city or region so the seller can say whether collection or delivery is possible.

What to put in your request

Give the breed, the intended use (meat, breeding or pet), the age, the number of animals and whether you want males, females or a group. Say the weight you want, whether vaccinations are needed, and your budget in NZ$. A clear request gets a precise reply from a seller.

The request is free. BlaBlaPrice's AI reads it, asks for missing details such as breed and weight, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in New Zealand, and shows the prices and sellers it finds. Registered sellers answer in the chat with their offer and terms, and your contact details stay hidden until you choose to share them. For related listings see Farm animals and Rodents.

Questions and answers

How much do meat rabbits cost in New Zealand?

Rabbit meat for people was listed at about NZ$45 for an 800 g to 1 kg game rabbit and about NZ$52 for 0.5 kg of leg meat, according to sellers' websites in November 2026. Live animals are priced per animal or per kilogram, so ask the seller.

What welfare rules apply to breeding does?

New Zealand animal welfare guidance says breeding does in meat production should not be put on a restricted feed regime, because this harms their welfare.

Is summer or winter better for buying?

Neither season is better in itself. Summer, December to February, means heat, and winter, June to August, means cold nights and more feed, so check the housing for either season before the animals arrive.

Can I collect the animals myself?

Ask each seller whether collection or delivery is possible from your city or region, and what transport crate they use.
