    I have a couple of hobs that are as small as my jills(same size but slightly chunkier),but they don't allways produce small stuff.Saying that i have a tiny hob in my latest litter that i will be keeping back,the rest of the litter all jills are of a uniform size but not big though.Takes a bit of time to get a strain small and breeding true.

    Ooty's collie lurcher caught a dogfish once.last time i went out to one farm ratting we caught more pigeons than rats,we were lamping them in the barns and the plummers were leaping up and catching them as they flew past.

    Start with pink ones and if the rabbits complane then change to a different colour,all the rabbit could see is a siloette of the net as the colour won't show from a dark hole.Try it with a bit of drain pipe with a net on the end look up it,see you can't see the colour just the net,now put a ferret up your arse and the colour don't come into it .Bright coloured nets help you find them again mate thats all.

    Someone in Norfolk has been banging Italian Greyhound/whippet x beddies out for a while,pile of leg breaking waste of money from the ones i've seen around.Go on to a few Italian gh web sites and look at the pups in casts pics,the ones down this way are only bred for cash £300 plus for a pup.Why bring bone weakness into a working line?.

    I let some go at nearly 6 weeks as they were allready weaned and the jill had had enough of them,the homes they went to knew they had to have a little extra care.They went in pairs and all are doing really well,all went to homes where they had plenty of time spent with them and not just put in hutches at the bottom of the garden.One went to a lady from the cambridge ferret welfare at 4 weeks as she had a orphan kit she was hand rearing and wanted a pal for it,the kit was allready eating meat and drinking out of a water bottle and was going to a very knowledgable home.Around 7 weeks is fine as

    I have handled my kits from a very early age and neither of any of last years or this years kits have ever nipped me once,i have mine weaned around 6 weeks and have always fed them twice a day.I give them a larger meal at night so they wake up to a breakfast already there,i then feed them around miday and put in the big meal in the evening when the heat has gone out the sun less flys as well.I do push my fingers into there mouths to deter them in the first place and it seems to work 100% so far,even my adults don't like fingers near there mouths and will turn their heads away.I can put my hand

    Here's a baited hook for you to bite on mate(flatcap),in every plummer thread you are there moaning about them being non workers,well mate find some ground near you that has some work for my dogs and i will come and show you working plummers.Digging they have just started at(so no silly mega earths for a dog just starting),ratting,bushing,working with ferrets anything you want,my only condiction is that when they shut you up you pay my expences,if they don't work you can tell the world and i will foot my own bill.WELL??????????????.

    Not getting into a row mate (ooty's your man for that)but i would say yes highly strung but not out of control,full of drive and desire for whatever you have for them.One of mine can't stand still,allways on the go full of life but not out of control.If i don't take her out for a day or two she does let me know,but a dog full of drive just needs to have a release for it.Tis a grand pic that Keeps.

    Have you been down to the caravan parks by newgale beach?,heaving they usally are.I got the same as you a few years back old goat she was,long net worked well though!.

    Plummers on the whole are a sencible terrier,some are firey but on the whole most get on with other dogs.Most have a good nose equal to anything else and a good hunting drive,they work along side of others and have bags of stamina.I have 2 which have ticked all boxes so far even down to a little earth work and all is going well,work with ferrets,bushing.A plummer even won the gun dog scurry at the welsh game fair last year but the organizer's had to give first prize to a gun dog breed,also know of a few keepers who have them as allround shoot/pest control dogs.

    There's a good little article in this weeks Shooting Times on a bit of rabbit catching with ferrets and Plummer Terriers,couple of pages with a few pics quite a good little read.

    Who said and who would use 2 dogs to ground?,i was trying to help point out the law and that in this country england you can pretty much carry on as you used to do but have to now dig for game bird protection.You seem to not know how law works,the hunting with dogs is not against the law.Not as free as it used to be but still with a little thought not so hard to do,read the act i have and it ain't changed much to me or a lot of others you just need to use your brains(ahh i see your problem).

    The use of dogs for finding quarry is not illigal no mater how many are used,the hunting of quarry when it knows it's being hunted is illigal(unless rats or rabbits).You can use 2 dogs to flush to a gun,so you could use 2 greyhounds or saluki's to flush a hare to a man with a gun in the next field,remembering to be safe with the gun when the dogs are to close to the hare;) although there not allowed to catch it.The digging of foxes is also not illigal as long as it's for game bird protection and it's in every ones interests to help the wild bird population on every farm.You can use as many d

    Use a litter tray just put it where they poo and put some poo in it and they will continue to use it,i have 3 litter trays in my court on a flagged floor and is dead easy to clean,empty out the trays and a quick brush up of spilled saw dust.You do want to put a slab down to help keep their claws short,even in a hutch i put a piece down between their sleeping quaters and the run so they are allways running over it,if not skateboard grip tape is really good,self sticky and sticks to anything.

    The only danger from feeding rats to ferrets is to yourself,i have fed rats to my ferrets before and will do again but some folks have been ill before due to feeding rats,maybe ditchshitter was the one can't remember for sure but someone on here got ill due to lepto.

    Car starter motor,old wire wheel out of a mig welder,car battery and a bit of frame work and a visit to a friendly welder should see you with one a lot cheeper.
