Good luck

Thank you! I finally caught him, he was asleep under the red dolly that he was sitting by in the picture! I reached down and grabbed him, he sure kicked and squealed! He's back in the rabbit tractor now!

Yay!

It's amazing how strong they are! I got a pretty good scratch on my hand, that will teach me to try and catch a wild rabbit without gloves on...

My husband brought the trap home for the dog...I hope it works, the trap is pretty good sized, but he is a big dog!

We were able to get all but one fence post in the ground today. The final post will probably have to be bolted to the boulders that are in the way...we've had to do that before.

With our large FG rabbits , ...getting scratched was very common and gloves were always someplace other than where I needed them at the moment...so we took tube soxs, cut the toe out and now have cheap arm protectors ...its also great for my neighbor to wear as her skin is always tearing when she bumps or scratches against anything...I had found arm protection sleeves on the internet for sale...$18.00 each, sure get more bang for your dollar with the tube sox....and they work excellent !

Great idea! Sometimes the simplest things are the best!

That's a great suggestion & the same here gloves are always someplace else...lol
