I've noticed a rabbit in my garden bed twice now, and after shooing it away and going to check on my plants, I've noticed some of them have gone missing. Should I plant some more seeds after getting a fence for my garden, or should I wait for them to grow back. Also, how tall should my rabbit fence be to keep them out of my garden beds?

I used 4 ft. chicken wire buried 1 foot deep and it kept them out but didn't do much for the deer though. As for the seeds it depends on what they were and where you are located. A rabbit will dig under a fence, thus the burying a portion of the wire.
