Would imagine if you got a roo in a gill net, you'd destroy your net. Is gill netting quite fine nylon? Can you get some ferreting ground and bolt to the nets to get started, if it's night time netting you want a dark, windy night for best results, withthe wind blowing from the rabbits to you. Quietly set nets between feeding rabbits and the bury, then walk back round the field behind the rabbits and walk them into the net, shake a matchbox etc That's just a basic theory, never done it myself though. Best to get your nets up and practice a bit during the day before you try night time

Back up again.

Was a documentary on a good while back. A tribe in south america setting long nets a driving small deer into them.

Aye, not been in contact with him for long, but he seemed a decent bloke. Maybe he'll be back soon enough. Will likely fall in with him eventually though.

Ah well, think I'm a member of that site, never use it though, Shame he left as we were looking into the same litter. Doesn't live far from me anyway so will likely run into him eventually. Thanks for letting me know too.

If your leaving a collar on make sure it's a good sturdy one, had one of them nylon fellas on a 12 week old pup and it tried to get out under a wire link fence, got caught on collar and twisted, had to cut it to get it off. Never left a collar on since. But that's just me, would only use leather ones now too.

put the lead on him and don't hold the other end, let him get used to it and drag it around a bit for a while, should pick it up in no time.

Does anyone know what happened to oldskool? Seems he's not a member now, did he leave or get kicked? We both had an interest in the same litter and be good to keep informed.

Sold.

Help my dog is a nob head
ferreterni replied to mushroom's topic in Working Dog Health & Training Talk
Give it time, my jrt is the same. Good most of the time with these off spells. Annoying but you can work round it. I also find with my russell if I'm to easy on her she really pushes her luck, can't let her think for herself to much. -
Help my dog is a nob head
ferreterni replied to mushroom's topic in Working Dog Health & Training Talk
I know little about staffs, only really seen one and it wasn't mine. But that was a boneheaded dog. Would just keep coming on and on no matter what you said to it haha was very friendly and looking stroked, but you couldn't stop it at all. Was easier to put her in garden at times. So I do know they are very hard headed dogs, and you will likely be grey before you get through it haha especially if this is the bitch coming into season, be once or twice a year from now on. -

ferreterni replied to mushroom's topic in Working Dog Health & Training Talk
Don't know much about staffies but could she be in an adolescent age bracket, maybe calm down soon. I would guess that you would need to keep up the consistency of your commands and what you expect. My wee jrt is a shit when she's coming into season becomes ignorant and pushy, tries to fight with the other dogs etc. I tend to leave her back when she's like that and let it blow over. -
That's 30 purse nets 3 and 4ft and, 2 stopnets 1@16ft with loads of bagging and 1 set @25ft but would need shortening to add some bag. 30 nets and 2 stopnets for £50, plus £5 post. Must be useful to someone.

I can't take the dogs over some ground in the summer due to thwm. And had them crawling over my hands when trying to set a net. All sheep land, hate ticks. Benzol benzoate is meant to be good, but don't know if you'll get it any more. If i remember correctly too, if you spray the ferret hutch in frontline then it stays toxic for any invertabrates. Killing any insect that enters the hutch. But don't take that as gospel, just remember treating lizards for ticks and mites and had to be careful as it would kill the crickets.

Probably from overgrown garden, especially if there is cats dogs and foxes passing through it and definately if you are near shep country.

More pics of nets. Says 18 nets but counted 2 4z nylon ones so will be 2 extra new 1's added to make up total.

What do I need for pest control job
ferreterni replied to ferreterni's topic in Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control
Miserable b'tard by nature haha, patient and willing to learn and do a good job. Skin like old boot leather too. Just missing that bleeding driving license. -
No use to anyone? Good stock of strong tangle free nets? Don't want to put them on ebay if I can help it.
-
I'm glad you put that picture up, was wondering how they were done. Then do yo just peg the ends down and support on a couple of wands? Do you need to add bagging or is it like a goant purse net and just purses rond them? 12ft of net for 12ft net or do you need 18 or 24 ft on a 12ft net? Sorry for daft questions.
-
Thats £25 inc postage too. And £20 for 10x 3ft nets posted too.
-
Thanks fellas, I thought so too, but didn't want to be on the steep side. We all in the same game.

Teacher in a class of students asks the uestion, If there is 5 birds sitting on a fence and 1 is shot, how many birds are left. Wee johnny pipes up, none miss, after the bang they fly away. Teacher says, no the correct answer is 4, but I like the way you think. Wee johnny says I have a question for you, there is 3 women on a park bench eating ice creams. The first is delicately licking the sides of the ice cream. The second is gobbling down the top and sucking the cone. The third is biting of the top of the ice cream. Which one is married? The teacher blushes deeply, thinks fo
