chartpolski 23,456 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Bit of a paradox that some people are saying there is no rabbits about, yet other people are getting 70's, 's, even 100 in a night Maybe the people who say there are none about, ought to travel a bit farther !

Taz-n-Lily 62 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Hi guys - noob here. Re- rabbit shortage: Bit obvious, but with all the rain this year - has the land been flooded? Quote Link to post

Snifferboy 659 Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Now, it is the same down here on the one spot that held a good number of rabbits last year- by good number I mean 20-30 not my usual 2 or 3 per field! But they have disappeared without trace... So I was talking to the farmer who's land it is and asked if he had seen any signs of myxi, he replied no, but added it that it is Chinese flu?????? Were the rabbits die down there holes. I've never heard of it... Anyone else? It does seem strange that there are no rabbits there at all. Quote Link to post
