Phantom 631 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Bunnies numbers on my perms are well down over last couple of months, but really plentifull in a bit of land across the road. Last bunny shot on my perm showed early myxie so thats my thinking. They will recover if I leave em to ride it out, Myxie isn't always fatal and they are becomming more and more resistant Tony Quote Link to post

saharashadow 26 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Seems to be plenty round here, and even seeing very young ones still. Generally not as many rabbits as 2 months ago, but maybe that's down to predation by the plentiful fox population in this area. Quote Link to post
bushing lad 114 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 plenty round here, even my terriers are catching one nearly every time i go out Quote Link to post
The one 8,503 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Aye the dogs are picking them up when we go out even the lab , things might get a bit better when the fields are cut and the covers down Quote Link to post
tonyponty 6 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 same here its been quiet since corn was cut but noticed 4x4 tracks through hedges again so looks like poachers are back out lamping or we dogs .. Quote Link to post
robwelsh 354 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Loads through the year. And now they seem to be whittled down again. Might just be catching them at the wrong time. Although near a industrial state there were atleast 6-7 on one bit of grass, little things but now their no where to be seen Quote Link to post
