  1. Does that mean you will be able to hunt all game legally?
  2. I always was under the impression that conspiracy theorists were a bunch of wackos but I'm rethinking that now.
  3. That's mad, I've just got psoriasis on both elbows and just thought it was age related. Sorry about your mum mate.
  4. I don't watch the news much so thanks for telling me. Getting rid of the older generation that can't contribute imo.
  5. I had two doses of Pfizer because they were saying at the time you won't be able to visit family without vacc. I have had two weird illnesses, one I was extremely ill, vomiting for days and passing out each time I was sick, I have never passed out before in 60 years. The other one was severe kidney pain right after vacc and several times since. I regret getting the shots and feel I fell for the gov's agenda like a chump.
  6. Well get her a whippet and it will be back to her heel instantly with rabbit in mouth .
  7. Great to see numbers like that. Where did you say that field was joe? Lol.
  8. Good on you mate, it looks like she was worth the sleepless nights .
  9. That is a big dog to me as I've mainly owned whippet types. That's around the height and weight of an average staghound, some bigger, some smaller depending on the game hunted. I had a ginger dog that was around 30 inches and 100lb and he was the second smallest in the litter. The old guy used them on roos daily and preferred the bigger dogs.
  10. Oz staghound, they are used on everything from rabbits to boars/deer and have been bred just to work for 200 years. You need a big dog to catch big game day after day.
  11. I have mostly retired from hunting now after my old whippet Shady died, just lost the urge to hunt, plus I'm fckn old but yeah I still have a whippet which mostly lays on the couch and just mooches on walks. That's where they have it over the slugs, they are loyal and I don't have call to Scotland Yard to file a missing feathered asshole report every time she goes for a run.
  12. I haven't heard of it but I don't doubt it. A lot of great rabbit spots here in NSW are devoid of rabbits now, very large areas, even post codes. Whether these get repopulated who knows but if any animal can do it it's rabbits. I don't do much hunting anymore but it's sad for the young hunters.
  13. Don't laugh, one of my cats would follow me and the dogs around a km from the house when ferreting the few close warrens I could get at. The dogs were ok with her. She would just sit and watch. If I picked up the rifle or bow she would always follow along, just me and Durbin the cat, most loyal pussy out there, .
  14. Of course and cats usually just kill one to eat but mine would come home with one from spots you would never see a rabbit or think of trying. if you have a lot of feral cats in an area they just keep hammering the population.
  15. I was never into breeding except the odd litter to keep a pup or two because over here in NSW decent working terriers and even lurchers are pretty hard to find. I just know if I wasn't 100% happy with the bitch I wouldn't breed her. You may get a whole litter you weren't happy with. Even with two outstanding parents you are chancing it unless they are a tight line/family.
  16. I think feral cats are another big threat to the rabbits on top of disease, viruses, natural predators. My farm cats would each catch a rabbit a day most days just ambushing the tunnels in the blackberries. I think human hunters and dogs are only a minor threat. Cats leave dogs in the dust as hunters.
  17. The best beer over here comes from Victoria, it's also where you will find the best terriers and running dogs in Oz. Most other states it's all XXXX and pig dogs, a few decent rabbit and fox hunters here in NSW.
  18. True what we can't catch, or dredge isn't worth eating lol. They only drink XXXX North of the border here where the sun has damaged most of the hillbilly's brains. It's called Queensland.
  19. Well we all can't sit in palaces having tea and scones, you sent us here, all we had to eat was dried roo carcasses and mud out of a billabong. .
  20. It's a schooner, 425ml glass. I was drinking bottles, too many, lol.
