It keeps glitching out on my pad so can’t read them all, but this is one of the reasons we are trying to work with the authority,s as there is just to much misinformation and the rspca and police don’t really no what they are looking for or dealing with, eg puma or panther, a puma which we do get quite a few reports of is sandy brown in colour and comes from the states were as a panther is a descriptive word for a melonistic cat which can be several different species, though black cats here are leopards and nothing else and the reason they are black is the pet trade in England was supplied fro

Someone knows we’re it lives ?????? a nomadic creature that moves about 20k in a night and has a territory that can take a year to cover has an address, don’t no what’s more stupid, the folk that say these things or those that pass them on in the hope of gaining some credibility ?

The Thames and Cotswolds are crawling with them, I,ve caught loads by just laying my landing net in the edge sprinkle a few pellets on it then lift it swiftly after about 20 minutes, pot of boiling water waiting for them on the fire and a jar of 1000 islands sauce, no purging or faffing about lake to belly in under an hour, taste lovely and never had any issues, also though it may sound obvious they are very nocturnal and if you shine a light in the margins you,ll see loads ??

What if anything is eating the swimming pool?

Get a trail cam up, this will just be a guessing game without at least a pic of the holes, I do get rats between my pond liner but they have never chewed through it, squirrels and crows are your two most likely so far me thinks?? -
FairPlay to folk I,ve carried a catty with me from about the age of 10 I,m a little to close to 60 now and I would struggle to fill 4/5 pages with things to say about a Y shaped branch some elastic and the tongue of an old boot, they may have moved on somewhat in materials and appearance but it’s still the same principle????

Even I could count the legs on that beast, certainly never saw any of them in my henhouse -
Heard snow,s biased reporting the other day so was quite happy to see this

When he says do with it as you see fit, would that include signing up thousands of members on two year contracts at £30 a month as that’s what a lot of the big gyms round here do, could be onto a nice little earner ??

You would think so mate, but they seem to be able to pick us out, the cameras,though I don’t set the dates have the time and date on each picture and the amount of times I see animals stood in front of the cameras then shoot off about 20 mins before I arrive and often re appear around the same length of time after I have gone is quite spookie, plus they always sniff the cameras for the first week then ignore them after so I think it is about our smell, the same thing happens with red IR or the black ones which are totally invisible, it’s a hind mate the scruffy necks is were the hind legs rea

Same camera after a couple of weeks ??nothing stops for a sniff anymore and animals going about there business as normal, the cameras are a brilliant tool for learning about animals behaviour, and just how much our presence changes it? Hope your new project takes off ted looking forward to your thread and plenty of pics mate ??

Truth be told my eyesight ain’t that brilliant and counting legs on insects the size of a pin head would confuse me, but the most successful treatment I found to rid my hen house of the little red dots that were everywhere was with liquid paraffin, ? -
Think this is the kind of thing my mate bought and rates it very highly whilst not giving to much of a shit if it falls in the sea

For anyone interested in this kind of gear a bloke I no has just bought a copy go pro on eBay direct from China for around £20, he,s into kayak fishing and has it on a long pole on the end of his boat, he,s quite into tech unlike myself but claims the footage is exellent and it comes with a load of extras that would cost several hundred pound extra from go pro, am going to get one myself in the near future as I spend days walking about on my own and get to see some lovely stuff that would be nice to share ???

Years of it mate, ice and hot water bottle 5 mins of each at a time with plenty of ibruprofin works for me ??

Do you keep chickens? As red spider mite are the Bain of most chicken coupes ? -
You don’t need to be a top terrier man as sadly they don’t fight like a rat x 10 and are pretty easy work for even a modest terrier, the Norfolk broads had a load of them back in the 80s I think it was and they were wiped out quite easily??

Always buy a bag of festivals when I get me curry goat (never goat curry mate they get offended ) but always eat them before I get home ?brown stew is another fav pork,chicken or shrimp, making me hungry just thinking about it, out for a fish meal with the misses later so have to be good ??

First traitor out 500 to go

It’s quite sad and a bit shocking that most male goats are killed early as there is no demand for them, yet goat meat in all its different forms is one of nicest meats out there, I,m quite lucky living in a city with a large population of Jamaicans that it’s readily available both cooked in its various forms and uncooked from the butchers, ??

Peas pudding if it was a pile of hand cut proper chips that would be one of my favourite meals,

I saw something on telly a while back that there were places in England set out like a round of golf but through woodland and instead of a hole there were 18 targets for archery, hi low long and short, they were saying it’s going to be the next big thing, obviously it was,nt but maybe there are still a few about if you feel the urge ??
