yeti 84 Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 Right lads one of the farmers phoned last night saying that he seen loads of young rabbits hopping about on the fields ! Which his true cause I've seen them myself but left them for next season . What do u lads do when that happens do you go down just kill a couple And show face And say the rest got away . I try not kill any now has the season is finished too many young rabbits about my way ? But you got to keep showing intrest haven't you cause premiss on is hard to come across ?

baw 4,360 Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 You need to keep going through the summer. I don't report everytime I'm on to the farmer with numbers etc. he knows I'm there cos he sees the vehicle parked up. If our paths cross I just feed him a line exaggerating the catch I got last time etc. you can't say some got away cos obviously your not gonna get them all but you need to be looking like your hammering it. Take the dog for a walk, if he gets some fine, drop the ferret in the odd hole etc. Quote Link to post

skycat 6,173 Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 Keep going out, but make sure to leave some breeding stock for later in the year: young rabbits spend more time running about on top than adults during the day, so the farmer is bound to see them, and then double or treble the amount he's seen in his head LOL Like baw says, make sure to double or treble the numbers your'e getting when telling the farmer: human nature in exaggerating things works both ways 1 Quote Link to post
