Female rabbits in season

It a sign that the female rabbits are in season although this snow may knock it back a bit now

The reason is the Tannin in the bark their eating,the same chemical used to tan leather years ago before synthetic substitutes,they used to collect acorns and "tread" them like grapes with spiked boots in a vat to get it,bark's full of the stuff,not many rabbits are going to ovulate when their starving are they?

Is mother nature that stupid,lol.

 

6 of the rabbits i got last week wer full of youngins mate

 

Well i dont breed rabbits mate so i dont know if they produce red urine when they are in breeding condition,and ive seen young rabbits with snow down in my time,but ussually later on in a cold snap,my mate found a dead leverette last season at xmas? although the weather wasnt that bad.

When you catch a buck and "piss it" when the snows been down a while and its "red" is it coming in season?

[watchman 256]

you can pick what colour it is

exactly how im finding it on my permission,might have to take a B&Q colour chart for the exact colour match

[micky 3,325]

if you eat beetroot , its your shit that goes red ,not your piss.

exactly right micky as i said earlier on there is no arable land around the permission or market gardens its all dairy land so the beetroot theory is out of the window the only other expanation is the bark theory as they have been chewing hell out of the hawthorn bushes at the base and climbed onto lower branches to chew them this seems to be the only explanation or red berries even

dont think the rabbits are in season the cold and snowy weather would hold it back

you missed my point mate ,i think the colour of food will show more in the discharge from the bowels, than the bladder ,so untill somebody shows me some red shit ,iwill go with the coming into season theory

[steveS.Yorks 161]

You cant argue with blokes who breed rabbits if they say it turns red when they come in season i beleive it,but the buck piss is dark as well,maybe its both reasons?

 

Ive caught loads of rabbits that have been feeding on Beetroot,if they eat enough it turns their flesh a pink hue,and some of the best tasting rabbits ive ever eaten were these beetroot pinky ones,just thought ide chuck that in.

its a wide open question open to no number of answers but it still remains there is no beetroot anywhere in the area unless they can open jars so that isd out of the window so that leaves the in season and bark answers
