tinytim38 Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Hi went ferreting yesterday with Redthunder, checked the ferrets today, as normal plastered around the ears with ticks, dabbed with frontline that will sort the ticks, got me wondering I have never caught or shot a rabbit with ticks does anyone know why this is?Are rabbits immune so to speak from their addorations? By the way all the bunnies yesterday were reluctant ot bolt with the exception of two all had to be dug out, they seemed to think they could beat our ferrets in unarmed combat WRONG, we have noticed this sometimes and before someone asks no we did not anounce oue prescence by making a lot of noise. cheers Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taff Mason Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 i had a rabbit the other day with a lump on its back between the shoulder blades. i just presumed this was tick but didn't really investigate it. but your question got me thinking, i don't know what it was really and don't think i've ever noticed any ticks on rabbits before. maybe they groom each other in the warren or something??? cant see them being immune and the fur wouldn't stop ticks either.

Taff Mason Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 have at times found them on there ears . same here i shot one with ticks allover its ears this would make sense. the ears and between the sholders are probably the only place they cant get too to clean themselvs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinytim38 Posted November 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 mmm? what do they have that mostly stops them picking them up but every time I take the "badboys" out they pick them up straight away? Just wondering, no edge! Tim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
