19powell90 89 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 I found this article in Airgun World Feb 2012 issue and thought i would share it with you guys. After reading the article i actually grabbed 3 bramley apples and chopped them in half and put them at a popular rabbit spot on one of my permissions and returned the next day to find 5 halfs gone and the whole inside of the sixth eaten out but with the skin left. whether it was rabbits i cannot be sure scott 1 Quote Link to post

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I just used cheapo Co Op rabbit food, if spread about the grass they have to stay to hoover it up. People laughed at me when I posted about this so there, I have been proved right! Quote Link to post

silentshot1 206 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Has anyone ever tried Banana? I kid you not, my wife's pet house rabbit goes bonkers for them. Must be the sweet taste. I've toyed with the idea of taking them out to the shoot(banana, not rabbit... yet.) but never quite got round to it. Quote Link to post
