Welcome.
Roadrunner is a Netherland Dwarf female. I live out in the middle of nowhere, there are no houses in a 20mile radius. I first saw Roadrunner on my way home from work, maybe about 2am. There was a car parked on the side, I could only see the tail lights however. I noticed something white thrown out of the car, and right after the car took off leaving the mysterious white object in the ditch.
As I got closer I relized that white object was a rabbit! I immediatly started thinking of things I could do. I stopped maybe 10feet from the rabbit not wanting to scare it, and tried to approach it. As I got nearer she started to get scared and was thinking about taking off. Not wanting to scare her, I got back in my car and went to pick up some stuff from the house. I took one of my old nesting boxes that I put in my outdoor hutches when they were outdoors. The whole thing is enclosed except for a small opening. I filled it with Hay and took a bowl of food and water. I then headed back to the located and placed them not far from the rabbit. In curiousity the rabbit wanted to come towards the stuff but wouldn't with me there. So I left. I felt bad about leaving her there overnight. However she wouldn't let me catch her and I didn't want to scare her away into the woods.
The next morning I headed back to the spot that I found her and sure enough she was sitting in the nesting box I had brought up. I then decided I had to try and catch her. It was now light out and if she did make an escape it would be easier to follow her. I went home again and came back with a large fishing net. It was actually a lot easier having that nesting box there, because she wouldn't come out of it. SoI just placed the net over the nesting box and she was caught!
I gathered her up and took her home. I then gave her a health check to make sure it was ok for her to go in my barn with the other rabbits. She was in perfect condition. I'm going to let her settle in for a few weeks, and then I'd like to have her go to a few shows with me.
Honestly, I dont think I could ever sell this little rabbit. I watched her being thrown out of a car in the middle of nowhere in a attempt to destroy her. I honestly dont know who would want to destroy such a beautiful animal. I sure wouldn't.
