It's a Catch 22. My mom has rabbits inher garden and it's a love/hate thing for her. She loves therabbits, but hates how they chew in her garden. She won'tdare do anything that would hurt them because she's really fond of myherd and knows that they all have personalities. She'sgetting to know the family of rabbits that live in herbackyard. I get a big charge out of the way she laughs atthem when they play and run after each other. She hasn't toldme about seeing any babies yet. Now that Spring is here, I'msure she'll be seeing little ones.

We have our garden done in teirs and the rabbitslike to birth thier kits in the second level. We put hay over thegarden at the end of fall and so they like to burrow under this andhave babies! In the summer they seem to leave it alone even though alot of our garden is devoted to bunny veggies. We see them out in theyard quite often though and find signs of them all over.
