We killed this cottontail this morning. He is what I guess you would call orange, I've seen white ones even down here in Mississippi but never one this color.

J might be a Satsuma. My wife said we'd killed some child's pet, well it sure could run. Eric

Me and a good friend were running last year during the off season and he said the rabbit the dogs were running was yellow and we thought maybe someone turned a tame rabbit loose. Then during season while huntin the same farm I harvested the yellow rabbit. Thinking about getting it mounted.

We call those rednecks here in Georgia. They make up about 70% of what we kill. The others look like your typical eastern cotton tails. The rednecks are a little small but run like deer.
