paddyluke 795 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 paddyluke: those are wonderful photos. Does the hare live in the house all the time? Can you let it outside at all? I remember reading an account of a poet who kept hares in his walled garden: can't remember which poet it was now: I'm sure someone will know. at the moment he's in the house but i'm in the process of making a fenced area for him(approx 9'x9') but he'll also have the run of the garden at times, when he feels like a rich tea biscuit he will box our legs, andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Romany 1,065 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 ABSOLUTELY Cracking images matie.. I also had one kept like this.. Killed a hare, and when I gutted it, there were four leverets in it at various stages of developement, the biggest one, ready for dropping..I wrapped it up in a duster out the car, and stuck it in the pocket of my Barbour..nearly forgot about it, when I got home it was totally alive, fed it on bitches milk substitute with added mixed abidec and SA37 from a siringe, then from one of the daughters dollys bottles.. Got some slides of him will try and get them converted and put them up.. Yes squeaked hares in loads of times, I have just taken some images of a hare that I squeaked in from quite a long distance out, to a reasnoble distance to photograph..
