Hi everyone!
I'm new here and this is my first post, unfortunately.
I joined last week when we decided to try raising bunnies on our farm! I'd hoped my first postto be happier!
So last night we drove over an hour to pick up a californian buck. I left him in crate for the night (its a big dog one) with food and water. This morning I loaded him in a small carrier and brought him out to his new hutch. I put the carrier up to the door of the run pArt and he hopped in and up to the hutch part. Well I guess the back door was unlocked and sure enough he hopped out, I almost grabbed him and then the puppy took interest in this funny hoping thing... the bunny ran, the puppy ran, I tried to call the puppy back and he usually listens but being four months old this was just too exciting for him and with my luck he ran right into the cornfield. I got a net and found him a couple times but he'd run off before I could get even close. I stopped trying for fear of chasing him even farther into the corn!
I havent seen him for about an hour now. I'm pretty upset and I know I made some mistakes and thats why this happened. I feel horrible. I know my fiance won't be pleased with me! Now I have to find another breeding buck!
We live in the country but I think if I don't find him today, I will put posters on our road. There os an area down the road a little where houses are close together. Other than that I don't know what to do.
I know the chances are slim. The poor bunny, I just want him to be okay!
