suprise bolt

[Guest norseman]

has anyone on here ever had a rabbit bolt after they have taken the ferret from the warren? i lifted my hob (after he bagged me the first of the day) to correct a problem with my locator, so walked away to change the battery. but when i came back to put him to ground again, there was two coneys caught nicely nice bit of luck i'd say. is this common? has it happened to many of ye?

Maybe that the scent of the ferret down there was enough to make them bolt

Happened last year rabbit bolted ferret behind it. Only small warren so boxed up ferret start to pick up nets and another bolted out of the same hole that I had just taken the net off

Happens a lot before a ferret is entered, those rabbits are always going to bolt.
