  1. I’ve just booked one of my hobs in my local vet, £85,
  2. Just out of interest Adam what will the resulting pups be?
  3. Not sure if it’s the same fella but David Hubbard is your man, he’s on Facebook
  4. Everything from the sample testing, collection and storage, my mate uses them for his cockers, he really rates them
  5. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think Keith passed away, his daughter is running it now
  6. He looks a real strong type…. Ideal
  7. In this day and age it will be to make sure he identifies as a hob ferret and nothing else
  8. Not for a vasectomy terry I don’t think, £95 sounds abit more realistic, just make sure you leave him a good 6 weeks til you put him over your jills
  9. Had it happen many years ago, a mate brought in a jill that had been left in season used his snipped hob over her the season after he went over all our jills, then when we came to breed a litter, non of the jills would take, we used different hobs and still nothing, a conversation with a vet and some lengthy research on his part proved they had contracted the ferret equivalent of a sti he gave me a course of antibiotics to put the jill on and heypresto a litter of kits was produced, after that I have only every used my snipped hob on my own jills
  10. I’d be very wary about using these hob services, these hobs could go over a good number of jills during the spring, who could have diseases only to be passed onto the next jill, if a good number of jills are being kept personally I’d get a hob done and only put him over my own Jill’s, better to be safe than sorry imo
  11. Just out of interest why do they need to be small line bred??
  12. Yep did us too was meant to go this morning but weather wasn’t looking too good so cancelled it
  13. No mate, they aren’t in an area for a reason, be that disease, predators, unsuitable ground, over hunting ect,
  14. Blessed with excellent ground that holds very good numbers, that was a quite day to be honest we are normally double that, our best day so far was 174
  15. We had our last day of 2023 today, hard going in the wind and rain but managed 54 I had the old bitch out today, her days out are limited these days now she is 11, this years kits are progressing well too cheers Neil B

  17. Give the locator collar a sharp tap that sometimes works, the magnetic switch gets stuck on, failing that just remove batteries after use,
