Wacky Home Game Rules?

At my otherwise normal home game, rabbit hunts cost a big blind which is put into the next pot.

I have tried to get rid of this a couple times, but people seem to like it. The good side of this rule is that we usually only have one or two rabbit hunts per night, the bad side is that every time it happens it really slows the game down, as people try to negotiate splits of the fee, then some newbie has to be filled in on what all the discussion is about, then the next hand is weird cause there is an extra big blind in the pot.

I make the would-be-rabbit-hunter expose their hand if they want it hunted. Doesn't cost anything but generally cuts down on the number of rabbits in a night. Also if someone's cards are mucked they have a hard time requesting it. Usually it's just the folder of a heads-up that will expose and hunt.
