Quasar 1 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Am So Happy. The farm is around 3200 acres but i have a small section of which i beleive could potentially be loads of rabbits as the field here not been shot on and there is loads of crop dmagae already. I have 22 ferrets but all these are show ferts and have never been worked and will be a new learning curve for me as i have a3 Jills i think could really do the job. I now need to spend some money and purchase some nets, longs, purses, shovels, and Ferrt Finder. If any one can assist with some unwanted or cheap items that would be ace. One of the things me and my shooting partner are looking forward to doing is sweeping out the half "bombed" pillbox and using that as a hide and to store our items with a makeshift table for tea n biccies The pillbox is prob 10 years or less from a good bramble cover where there are loads of rabbit holes and bolt hole. I tried to stalk a rabbit today and he scarpered to laid there and he came back after 10 mins. No luck. Only shot i fired from the Gamo was the empty the barrel on the way back to the car. However, we are both very much looking forward to next time when we attempt ferreting for the 1st time. Here are a few pics of my area. I have 2 fields left and right all the way to the edges which are in fact dykes. I dont have the other fields as these are other person's permissions of which i shall not be encroaching. Most of the rabbits are going to be this left hand side or the straight ( i beleive) Rabbit @ about 70 yards and 2 more at the top. They saw me Next few pics, you can see the damage they have been doing to the fields where the crop shoots have all been eaten. The pill-box - i think this will be handy hide. - Next few pics are view from the pill-box Edited January 11, 2009 by Quasar Quote Link to post
