Stocking Rabbits

Post by smitty46 »

Has anyone had any luck stocking there running spots with wild rabbits. If so how much time to you give them (to get to know the area) before you turn the dogs on them.

I give my rabbits three nights. When I catch a rabbit i will not touch him.Take the hold trap to the place and let him out at night.Never in the day.This works good for me.

Thanks, in the past 2 weeks, I've turned out 12 bunnies. The last one was Friday; so I'll give them some exercise tomorrow morning.
