Guest jbswildlife Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Them are cracking looking bunnys, healthy and big.. Good luck for the rest if your stay. How would a lamping dog fair their? Would they get much do you think? Cheers, Frank. the ground is very peaty and uneven were I am. but there is some great open fields were either a lurcher or hawk would be some fun. Im using a red filter on top of my truck, and find the rabbits are happy to sit tight with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
