That's right, put honest bunny-bashers in the poor house, why don't you? Break my rice bowl. Impoverish my family. Starve my sweet puppy and my poor old cat. Take the roof from over our heads and the shirts off our backs.

not many bunnies but plenty of rats! Mad

No offense meant!
I don't charge as I do it at MY convenience, rather than being at the beck and call of the landowner (no offense meant Mr Landowner Embarassed ), and I do it for the benifits I get, such as relaxation, challenge and free healthy food (if I'm lucky).

I have the utmost respect for anyone who does this for a living...

If I can be of any assistance....although you're a little far away for popping over!!!

Does anyone know of a good rat recipe???

Not many big ones but overun with young rabbits---the cat catches/eats at least one a day----always starts from the head and leaves the long last bit of the legs and the intestines. I can see she starts at the head as brains are nutritious----but I'm amazed there is no skull left Question

Hello.....
whitelegg1

You're going to tell me there's:
a) been a population explosion.
b) they've been lulled into such a false sense of security they don't run away anymore!!!

Should get the rimfire next week.....eventually.
Out of action this weekend due to urgent dentistry....
I shall be in touch Smile

It's got to be your aftershave or summat, I wouldn't be surprised to wake up one day to see they've managed to break down the front door and move in.

Where?

We see a few by the side of the road a couple of miles from here, riddled with myxy.

Such a sad sight.

should we make a bunny map ?

Loads of bunnies in south cheshire, shame I am too busy decorating to go and get some Rolling Eyes

Is there a way here to cimbine the desire of some for ingredients, the desire of some to be rid of their bunnies, and the desire of some others to learn to shoot?

How about a sort of barter/exchange system? As stated previously, I'm happy to give shooting instruction, if other people want rid of their bunnies in an area where someone wants to take up shooting..... Not so much Local Exchange Trading System as National Assisted Rabbit Killing System (NARKS).

If myself and the missus got the odd weekend away out of the deal I'd be more than happy to travel and shoot/instruct.

The rabbits here have had Mixie, but the rats are plentiful, with the mild weather and their breeding habits they are doing very well, my son and I try to keep them in check with trapping and shooting ( i am not keen on using poison).. No end of pigeons, where did they all come from
