An Hour before work :)

well yesterday i went out on the moped to my new permission i had aquired a few days previous. Walked around done a few warrens that i had saw rabbits run into the night before but nothing, had another dander and saw a rabbit run into a newly dug warren only a six holer but it was right beside a warren around 20 - 30 holes. Any way i put in "viper" my best working hob as my jill ( Amy ) is pregnant. So in he went..................nothing after 5 mins, nothing after 10 mins, then around 15 mins BANG one rabbit, and by the time i had necked it another ran into the net right be side it to the right of the tree as shown in the first picture.

 

all in all it was a nice hour out before work, and the sun was shining, heres a few pictures from today.

 

There is also a picture of a net peg i made using around 5 inches of 1cm diameter cylinder type wood, these pegs where made from a meter long cylinder section cut into 5inch long pieces then tapered into a point using a sharp knife these make for very good pegs.

 

As you may be able to see the top doe is heavily pregnant but i couldnt let it go due to it breaking its leg in the net and due to the farmers wishes, even if i did want to let it go lol

Hes a really good worker, when i first tried him out he was messing about and jumping at the holes so i didnt think he would make a good worker but i think it was just due to his age, hes my best worker now
