DogMagic 461 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 When i start finding babies or dig to babies after a lay up i call it a day. And i dont think it will be much longer as iv been seeing a few mating bunnies while lamping. Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 When it stops being worth it due to cover/babies/milky does. If needed i then move on to other methods. As the seasons start to fade away its gone all over the place, seen bucking, mating and young all year round. Quote Link to post

I spend everyday in the country and the last few years have been really off, there are so many things out of order. Twas one of the really magic things about our country. Quote Link to post

JoeD 24 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 On most of permissions it will be end of my season probably next week as I am getting young, but I have a few permissions that I hope I will be doing for another month or 2. Quote Link to post
