i have seen a load about this year compared to last which supprised as most of this land was under water for weeks ...

IF it stays disease free it could be a good start to the season ..

even close to home where the rabbits have never been in big numbers theres a few knocking about ,and i dont see many lads with dogs either which is good..

rabbit numbers have always been terrible round my way, lately the have picked up but a bunch of local lads keep summer hunting the rabbits, not gonna be any game left in the winter by me

If they are not doing it for pest control then they probably wont kill many. Where do they manage to get at them anyway? its either sheep or crops where I go.

Im lucky in that i get to go to different farms everyday with work and on some of them its crawling i have got 2 good sized permissions for this year with a few on .

one wants me to ferret his mates back garden this weekend but i told him my ferrets have young ,i havent even got any lol but told him that so i can get on there this season .looks like a night with the airrifle tomorrow, if i do a good job i get 600 acres to go at in the season as well as the 2 i have already.

Seen a lot about this year fingers crossed no sign of mixi yet

[Sweeney 316]

There's always loads of rabbits about this time of year, but when the season starts the number has usually halved ! That mixi is a b*****d, completely wiped out one of my bits a few years back, I've just been up there last few weeks and seen about 15-20 gonna leave it again this winter and hopefully the season after will be back to its best nearly. Fingers crossed

Plenty about my way also seen a good few black ones and a half brown half white one and no its not an area where someone could of dumped an unwanted pet anyone shed any light on this or anyone else seen this ???

I've caught a lot of Black one's over the years round my way.

Some seasons you don't see them but they still turn up the next season. They look black from a distance, but when you handle them there coat looks dark navy blue.
