Early for babies, I got several pregnant does yesterday but all were no more than a week or two gone. I caught some Young last year in early February yet does caught only a few miles away weren’t even pregnant yet at the same time of year. Always found it strange how rabbits in the same basic area seem to start to breed at different times of year.

Been doing the same farm for the last three weeks Bob, the first week we noticed  young in them one ready to drop. Today young popping out and young in every doe. Been so mild up to now it's crazy how early stuff is this year.

It surprises me that with the wet weather they have breed, amazed they found a dry enough spot for a nest!! Poor buggers must have been born with flippers!!!!

Out on Tuesday myself and was knackered after, my mate Bry went down like a sack of spuds a fortnight ago after a rabbit in the long net and done his Cruciate Ligament. Well he is hopping around like somebody with a peg leg so I tilled the long nets both sides of the hedge and picked up, after doing three moves then lugging all the gear back the car. The ground is still so wet can't take the motor across the fields, the gates are all locked anyway to keep the crusties out. Lol.
