badshot Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Is it just round me or is everyone finding the mixie is really bad at the moment. So many of the rabbits I am shooting are skeletal and totally blind I am actually not picking them all up, which goes against my morals, I have three hungry dogs and ferrets which eat the majority of the bag.

MC Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 I have seen a few first signs of it on the farm I shoot, nothing to bad just a few with the start of pussey eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dusk2dawn Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Im about 10 miles away and yes we have it here quite badly, just have to wait for a couple of hard frosts, then hey ho off we go again In some areas the bunnies seem to have develped an immunity to it, but sadly not where we are, it has to rank as one of mans cruellest interventions but at the time I suppose the situation was getting out of hand. In the early 60,s I went out as a lad after school with a webley mk3 and shot so many that we didnt have enough holes to put them in out of the way.
