ulverston moocher 60 Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 I dont know if any one else has noticed but around my town when the black bunny shows up mixys not far behind I know they used to be released by keepers as a poacher detection but now I think they are released on the sly infected with mixy I do quiet a lot of ferreting and have never seen a young black rabbit only ever full grown,never one with mixy and they appear over night I see brown and white and ginger rabbits all year round but not these black ones I see them and then get the gun and shoot them asap maybe im barking up the wrong tree but what do you guys think. :wacko: Quote Link to post

Guest Countryboyo Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Ive seen blacks before but heard from a farmer that his daughters breeding rabbits escaped ten or so years previously and that was the result. but i also heard of people putting out myxi ridden domestics to wipe out warrens. myxi is such a filthy wrotten thing.

Geoff.C 0 Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 My permission has no keepers to put out black rabbits. There are plenty on there though, I see babies in the summer and adults. None of the blackies have ever had mixy. I think it must be 3 years since I last saw a mixy infected brown one. Quote Link to post

Cheers mexlad. Alright mate they used to put a black rabbit down in the old days and if it went missing then they knew something was a miss either poachers or predatory problem. Quote Link to post
Paid 935 Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 I've heard its supposed to be bad luck to bag a black rabbit, but thats just an old wives tale. Though could be a carry on from the decoy rabbit, to see if poachers are about. Quote Link to post
