Cranfield Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Where is your location ? Perhaps if you are in a part of the country that has been colder than the rest, the breeding season may be holding back a bit. Here in the mild south, its starting to get into full swing.

tiercel Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 On the boxing day shoot this year, there was eveidence everywhere of rabbits mating. Saying that I think the only month I have not had a pregnant rabbit is November. Have had young rabbits in november but i cant remember ever having a pregnant doe.

pin Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 It has been very mild round here, started with a few milky does and then 2/9 on one day holding. Tried somewhere else and few week old squidgers all over :blink: Ah well, it bodes well for shooting later in the year :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
