terryd 8,423 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Get quite a few by the hedge a lot of time they panic or just be daft and run back out 3 Quote Link to post
terryd 8,423 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 To add had one a couple of nights ago his nose must have been touching the sheep netting but he turned back out into the field which was his undoing Quote Link to post
Omanyra 2,518 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 On a night we might not be able to pick and choose, the number of times Ive seen bunnies making a mistake at a hedge, fence or wall....always worth a slip.. 2 Quote Link to post

Or earlier as they may be returning from feeding? But it's a fair bet they were out feeding and have either smelt him or heard him and headed for home. TC 2 Quote Link to post

You've nothing to loose and every to gain if the dog susses how to get the nak of getting them on a hedge and keep the lamp on the place where the rabbit pops in as most will go in and stop and it gives the dog that chance to dive in and grab them.To many folk just urn off the lamp as the bunny hits the hedge and many a rabbit is glad they do so to 7 Quote Link to post

trigger2 3,145 Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 i dont always slip on rabbits close to the hedge as i think they will be there for another day but in a better position to be caught. however if the weather is rough then i will slip on the odd one or two of them. ive seen many a rabbit over the years sat a few feet from a hedge and for some strange reason decide it wants to break across the field and go for the hedge oppisite but i am still dubious about slipping on them. 1 Quote Link to post

Neal 1,867 Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 The ones near the hedges are the only ones mine have a chance on...anything further out will outrun them. Quote Link to post
