I have a fenced in garden area in my yard from last year. Today I planted 12 plants of lettuce in it. I then find a baby rabbit's nest in the garden. Inside of the garden! 
I guess that I'm feeding baby rabbits now. 
The mama rabbit is no dummy. There's food inside of the fence and a dog on the outside of the fence.

 Amber alert!
That is one scary Easter Bunny!!!! Looks like he would knock you down and steal all your candy.
I would rather be worried if she would be my daughter. That rabbit is evil.

Heyya Neighbor, My Parents seem to have the same problem this year too. They own two Maltese so my Father had to go through, secure the entire property along the fence line, so the dogs can have a place to run without fear of escape. As a project My Father also built my Mother a couple small gardens for perennials. Apparently a couple of rascally rabbits got fenced in and started munching on Mom's chrysanthemums. Last week-end I was in town, Dad and I were having coffee in the yard. We guessed the rabbits have been in the yard so long that the dogs are friendly with the rabbits. They just played around each other, while rabbits hopped right into my Mother's garden and had breakfast... right in front of Dad and I with no fear. Hiya, Neighbor 
Yep, it's spring and the rabbits are showing up.
I wouldn't have thought that the mums would be in danger. That's different - the dogs are friendly with the rabbits. Now your parents have more pets. My dog would kill them. I don't know what to do with the baby rabbits. I can't move them. But they're going to eat my garden. lol

Likely you should call the Rescue Center in Ballwin (636)394-1880 they should give you all the info you need in dealing with this. I took this info from a Wildlife rescue site: Rabbits A young rabbit is on it's own if the fur is fluffy, the ears are standing, and it is the size of a man's fist or tennis ball. In some cases it can be put back where you found it. If it was brought in by a dog or a cat, it is probably injured (although it may not appear to be) and needs special attention. Although possible, rabbits are an unlikely carrier of rabies. Moving a Rabbit Nest It is not recommended to move a rabbit nest. There has been minimal success with moving a nest and the mother finding it. If you can wait usually 1-2 weeks, the babies will be gone and you can continue with your plans. If you must move the nest, try to place it close to the original spot. If A Rabbit Nest is Disturbed or Moved Replace all of the fur inside the nest and cover the nest well with dry grass. The mother may return to care for her young. If a baby is placed back in a nest, touch all the babies so they all smell the same. The mother will not reject the babies if you handle them. There has been good success with placing rabbits back in the nest and the mother returning later and taking care of her young. Monitoring a disturbed or moved rabbit nest Before moving the babies from the nest, check to see if the mother rabbit returns. Chances are you won't actually see the mother returning because she usually feeds her babies during the NIGHT. Check the babies bellies before and after an evening has past. Their bellies should be full in the morning. Also, place a couple strands of string over the nest in an "X" pattern to see if the nest was disturbed. These are indications that the mother was there. If at all possible, it is best to let the mother rabbit raise her babies. Rabbits are hard to raise! Adult rabbits If you can get near one, something is wrong. Use only the box method for catching and transporting. |
