Same here.Lot of rabbits this spring.But around here its been like this when I started rabbit hunting.36 years ago.They just get gone in aug and sept.I still say ticks.I found a rabbit on the path the last of july dead.Nothing wrong with it no marks or nothing.Rabbit looks like 3\4 ground.I just don t know.

I got a mineril block that you use for horses and cows broke it up in to smaler chunks and put them all over were I run my dogs they say that it helps the baby rabbit stay healthy and I have seen alot of them this year you can get them at your farm store

softner salt works just as good. it keeps the parasites like the worms down and can help the rabbits have a extra litter. i always take a coffee can full and every place we jump a rabbit i plac a small pile for them

I go through my briars and honeysuckle throw a hand full let it sift down to the ground,that way the deer don`t tend to hang around and lick it like a mineral block.
