i shit you not mate.. importation fees are not cheep my friend. I remember him doing this, in fact he has a picture of me holding one. He also has all the documents of the import.. I WAS JUST KIDDING BOUT THE BIRTH CERTIFICATES but he does have al the documents. As in previous posts, my grandad is well off.. hes not bothered about money or making or making a profit from breeding. His brother met a woman who was from Eurasia after a few years they married and moved over there. My grandad and his brother were ferreters in there youth, my grandads brother carried on ferreting when he moved over t

So shoota matt your grandad shelled out a lot of money in 1974 for 8 EU polecats from Eurasia? You've changed your story about birth certificates now this is 37yrs since he sourced them and its been said your 22. So how did you have your picture taken holding one? Y.I.S Leeview

just had a look on john orr the rabbit man his nets have been voted the best in the UK and his 100yd net consists of 16 smaller nets they work 24hours a day 365days a year SO you must check for trapped rabbits regularly He has 35yrs experience but started in 1951(aged 13) Buyer beware is good advice Y.I.S Leeview

Free 2 free ferrets 5month old and outside cage
Leeview replied to calvert's topic in Working Dogs & Livestock
Hobs or jills and what colour? whereabouts in Yorks? Please Y.I.S Leeview -
basically its a long net raised/suspended so the rabbits can pass underneath it to go out to feed once the rabbits are out and feeding, by means of draw cord and pins, you pull the draw cord from some way off release the pins and the net drops enmeshing the rabbits trying to head for safety/warren Y.I.S Leeview

not being funny but how many members on here have heard/used john orr's system if its that good? Y.I.S Leeview

nets are easily come by, Good ones you need to keep your eyes peeled its the drop system that makes the difference as Heritage mentioned Y.I.S Leeview

Premier league kicked off today,their admission is far higher per game and not heard any reducing THEIR admission prices Y.I.S Leeview -
ferret100, have you ever seen one of your ferrets actually kill any prey? Reason I ask is because different ferrets kill in different ways, from throttling, to taking their preys eyes out, even had a jill that would bolt them by attaching herself to the nose and rolling herself still attached similar to how crocodiles roll now its not something you can teach them what I wll say is the hob that took the eyes out, something his offspring did also and they never worked alongside him ever Y.I.S Leeview

a 4z net will be a better option Y.I.S Leeview

For the benefit of Ferret100 and anybody else who has obviously never seen a mustelid go about it's business with their own eyes, this is a classic example of how they kill: Is that rabbit crushing the ferrets skull to paralyse it before it stashes it in its larder Y.I.S Leeview

What you imagine has nothing to do with fact. But I clearly said "CANT IMAGINE" not I do imagine Yes, 'wild' polecats do tend to use unoccupied/deserted burrows (a burrow can be defined as either a hole or a tunnel) of other animals, if none are avaliable they will dig their own. Again, stashing prey is relative to the carnivorve and it's dietary requirements. As polecats, like ferrets, have a high metabolism, the larder is soon depleted. I'm not sure what predators you believe will take on, or even fit into the burrow of a wild polecat defending a stashed kill. I believe a wild po

UTB, Thanks for your earlier suggestion about the 'elite class' and we hope to develop the novice or non winners class further in future. There are obviously mixed views on how we decided to break down the whippets into two classes. This was one of a few ideas put forward and the easiest to implement. You are right the weight of opinion on the forum has been against this but the weight in terms of emails /calls has been more balanced. The KC/NOn KC Reg will be used this year at Birr but we weill probably move on to height/weight for next years three fairs. Can we have opinions on this?

Oh you were refering to polecat coloured ferrets that live in burrows? I mistakingly thought we were discussing polecat coloured polecats that live and survive in the wild that dont live in BURROWS more likely to live in drystone walls, tree roots, in hay barns and hollow logs Wild animals that stash food DEFINATELY dont stash it where they live so the smell does nt bring unwanted attention from predators. As for working it out myself about burying the the stomach Just cant imagine a pack member removing the stomach, burying it then going back to carry on feeding on the kill Y.I.S Leeview

Dont worry about your pup not catching yet there will be no stopping once it has its first Y.I.S Leeview

As I said, it is different for various carnivores. Polecats etc have burrows and so can hide their kill. Lions/hyenas etc don't have that privilege, plus unlike polecats/ferrets, they hunt in a pack and must gorge themselves on a kill. Polecats, like foxes stash a percentage of their food for harder times. Polecats tend to crush/puncture the skull to render excess prey paralysed but alive, and stash it in their burrow to have a supply of 'fresh meat' for their larder. For large predators, the abdominal cavity is the quickest way to reach the nutritious organs, the guts may be left to lower ran
