I have no idea if there's a difference in taste between rabbits but I like argentes so far. I have both champagne and creme d'argent. They also make interesting pelts. They can be a bit harder to find and more expensive though but you can sell extra kits for a good price. The person I got my champagnes from much preferred them over new zealands. If you want something smaller Dutch are apparently good small meat rabbits.

I don't have any idea because I think domestic tastes very different than wild. Maybe old, free roamed domestics might get close to the texture.

I have heard that raised rabbits taste different than wild rabbits.I would go by the size to the most meat.

You sound disappointed. Have you tried domestic rabbit? Everyone that I know that likes wild loves domestic. It's mild, sweet, and more tender.

San jauns are part wild part domesticated slight wild taste just not quit as big as the domesticated

This is impossible. Domestic rabbits are a totally different species from the North American wild rabbits; they cannot interbreed. San Juans and Missouri Cottontails are 100% Oryctolagus cuniculus, the European rabbit that has been domesticated.

Doesn't the gamey taste come from free foraging? Not breed? I have no idea - just asking?
