thanks

anyone esle court colour rabbit

 

nice one mate :thumbs:

We caught a few black rabbits when i was younger , we knew there was one in a small field close to where i lived, we had seen it a few times out in the feild. Decided to have a go for it one day with the ferret. Me and a mate spent ages netting up, making sure we didn't miss a hole, we had my mates jack russel x and my little whippet x so felt sure it would be ours. we had a couple of normal coloured ones out quickly but really wanted blackie. When he finally made his appearance he avoided all our nets (obviously) and straight lined both dogs to the opposite hedge and away. I was only about 14 at the time but can remember that one esapee better than a lot that Ive caught, must be because he was black :thumbs:
