Steveclark 9 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 A friend of my fathers has a small gundog training business and has recently extended his rabbit pen from 2 acres to 5. He therefore needs more rabbits for it. I used to ferret a few rabbits for the pen but just don't have the time anymore plus won't be able to get the numbers he needs now he has the bigger pen. Would anyone be able to supply a steady number of rabbits for the rest of the season? We're not talking loads just 4-6 every 2 to 3 weeks or so. The reason he needs a regular supply is because he shoots over some of the more experienced dogs and some dogs do peg the odd rabbit so these need replacing. I live in bristol and can collect any rabbits available from local places and he is willing to pay £5 a rabbit. Reply or ideally PM me if interested. Steve. Quote Link to post

Steveclark 9 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Aye they must be pegging some rabbits to want half a dozen every two weeks Im too far away anyway As stated in my origianl post he shoots over the more experienced dogs so the 20 - 30 rabbits he holds on average soon swindle down and need replacing! Always seem to get unconstructive comments on this site when asking for help - don't know why I bother half the time. Quote Link to post

Steve. watch what you say on here mate it is illegal to trap a wild rabbit and release it somewhere else But every gundog trainer I know or have looked at their website have rabbit pens with wild rabbits (because they bolt better)and they won't be being released well apart from the rabbit pen i suppose. I don't want to be getting into anything illegal so forget the post. I'll have to look into the legal side of this before I do anything!!! Quote Link to post
