Blue Bell was up to no good last night I am very angry with him.
This (the middle)is what my collard green transplants USED to look like:


And this morning they were:


It was my own danged fault I suppose, he has always been very smart, I just didn't relise that he was athletic, as well as smart.
These were on top of the deep freezer chest with the germinating seeds (thankfully in mini green houses with lids). He and Gracy were sharing the laundry room due to freezing temps outside for him and her unwillingness to potty outside. The closest I can fathom is that he must have climbed over the ice chest that I used to seperate him from Gracy, climbed the storage tower, which is really difficult to imagine as it's plastic, then jumped or climbed over HIS food bag and onto the chest freezer, to devour all the leaves on my transplant. Gets around good for a bunny with only 3 paws wouldn't you say? And don't even get me started on Gracy, who must have simply watched him do it.
*Sigh*
Just another day in paradise...

Oh no I'm so sorry Lily. Are you sure it was Blue Bell it could have been a rat .I had a huge mum once and it had 21 blooms and a field rat cut 11 of them off one night and was making a nest out of them.It seems impossible for him to have done that much climbing.

You can't blame a chap for following his instincts. Poor thing is probably starved for fresh greens, just as we are. Are all those greens beyond salvage?

He is a waskally wabbit! You may want to buy him some greens for himself so he will leave yours alone in the future . . . Is there time to start over?

PS You could enter him into the Waskally Wabbit Olympics . . . and sell his gold medal to buy more of what he destroyed. I had a cat that used to help herself to my houseplants . . . some were poisonous, so I had to move them outdoors, and take her to the vet. At least he was eating something good!

Oh I'm so sorry about your plants! Our furry friends sure can test our patience can't they?

One of our chickens "Big Mama" ate my broccoli (and other cole crops)like that. I think I can save a few. I will have to start over.

Our chickens are so spoiled she must have thought, 'Oh! Salad!'

Glendann- Oh yes, it was definatly him, there's no access to that room for anythingelse, and Gracy definatly didn't do it.
Droopy- I think if I plant them they'll be alright they will just take alot longer to produce more leaves he didn't bother much with the stalks.
SOJ- The worst part is I DO buy him greens, he gets fresh spinich, lettuce, and all the rasins he could ever want, plus rabbit treat logs with nuts and seeds etc. at least twice a week, that's why I was so upset with him. Maybe I'll put these out in a seperate patch in the yard and get him some other tasties and when he's not been waskally for a few days he can go and munch to his hearts desire.
