Varments!!


When I came home from work Friday, a rabbit ran from my corn patch through a weak spot in the fence. I covered the weak spot with an old board to prevent future intrusions and continued my garden walk. Then I found tobacco horn worms in my tomatoes (see picture). After picking them off and feeding them to the chickens, I discovered a baby rabbit hiding in my tomatoes. It ran to the weak spot in the fence only to discover that its exit was blocked. My husband captured the little guy and we put him in a cage. I might let him go on my parents property, or I might eat him. That might seem kind of cruel, but I figure....an eye for an eye.
