killer catch 18 Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I had taken the dogs out over my usual walk today. The spaniel. Bolted a few rabits giving the lurchers a few runs, unfortunately the one she got had mixi. Not promising for the season ahead. Quote Link to post

alan81 110 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 mixo is a pure c**t lads it was around here at the end of last summer and it hit bad I reckon it will be 2 or 3 years before there is rabbits worth talking about here again that's if it doesn't come back before that. it had a big effect on foxes to with there been no rabbits for them to eat. mixo = shit year for me.
