sandersj89 Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 At the weekend I went out with my father for a night of rabbiting from the back of the pickup around the farm in Devon. Night was nice and cloudy with a decent breeze so we set of with me in the back with my 12g about 10pm. We have just over 300 acres and the ground was nice a dry so we could cover most of it with the vehicle. Bag was OK but I was amazed at how many verry young bunnies there were this late in the season, not just half grown rabbits but small kitts. Nice to add a few young rabbits to the freezer this late in the season. Are others seeing young ones about still? Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Very spooky I was out walking the dogs around one permission with Mrs P. and saw 2 very young kits. I thought that from now on it was going to be all mature rabbits. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jonrms Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 it is spooky... on one of my shoots... it seemed to die off with rabbits..... there main problem.. anyway low and behold.. i find scratchings and droppings everywhere.... so I set up yesterday.. and shot 31 rabbits... out of that lot... more than half were young kits. I was worried... I thought that I could take it easy for a while and with mature adults being illusive.. I wouldnt have to spend so much on carts at this time of year... oops I was wrong.
