  5. I had a look this morning, as humans we tend to think that every other animal see's the same thing, all-be-it from a different angle. I found this and although it pertains to tame rabbiits I should imagine it would hold good for wild ones too. What Do Rabbits See? by Dana M. Krempels, Ph.D. Many house rabbit "parents" are curious to know what the world looks like to their lagomorph companion. Why does it seem difficult for my bunny to find food right in front of his face? Why is my bunny so easily startled or frightened if I walk into the room holding a box or a grocery bag? Can my ra
  6. CW If I was in your position I would expect the same from a dog, perhaps going further and expecting the dog to hold every rabbit in a net. I think I could have explained my reply better. Rabbits are a scarce comodity these day here, and each and every one is worked hard for, both by dogs and humans. As I love eating rabbits any rabbit that gets knocked about enough to loose it's edible qualities is a waste IMHO. Personally numbers mean diddily squat to me these days, i go rabbiting in all it's forms for two primary reasons. One is something to eat, the other is far more basic, simply beca
  7. Just my opinion, I will not tolerate a dog holding/ grabing a rabbit that is in a net purse or long net. The dog should stand over the net and if the rabbit gets out of the net then it is fair game. I am not saying that a dog that holds a rabbit in a net is wrong doing so, just that over the years most of the ferreting dogs I have used have been terriers, some have had fairly soft mouths but most have had a grip like a vice. Not good for the culinary value of the rabbit after it has had hold of it, not to mention repairing the nets after. So I found it easier to make all rabbits in nets out of
  8. On the drop shipping thread questions were asked about importing from China, Have a look at this thread off a business forum a bit out of date but does give you an idea of what costs are encured. Importing goods from China TC
  9. Good intresting input fella's, nothing clever just good honest findings. long may it continue. TC

    Drop Shipping

    Drop shipping while sounding good, relies on your partner to deliver on time, which from the drop shippers I have seen on ebay does not happen.that often. There are a lot of firms in the channel islands that do drop shipping, dvd sets etc, but their partners get all the flack when wrong items are sent or non deliveries etc. TC
  11. Banter beat me to it but it was Englebert. TC Edited to add I am getting too slow when Mal beats me as well.
  12. Could well have been, I just assumed it was 6z as that is what is favoured by one of the partisipants and the way the rabbits bounced off the net. TC
  13. Paulus's vodoo? Or the power of three? TC
  14. Just curious. What are the parameters? If the software susses they are old users they need validation? But if the software does not pick them up as old users then they do not need validation? TC
  15. Terry, the reason the rabbits were throwing themselves at the 6z nets and bouncing off was that the lamps they were using were panicing the rabbits. I do not know if the night vision and lamps were used just to show the rabbits entering the nets? All I can say is they failed misrably if that was the intention. The video you are talking about is to be honest a good advert for how not to bant a field. It may well have been made under the constraints of time and the limitations of the camera and night vision. But IMHO the people who made that do not have a clue about longnetting at night. I h
  16. There is that factor to consider, however, I prefer them hopping for home rather than running. I should imagine even a black net would be invisable up against those stone walls of yours no matter what speed the rabbit was doing. TC
  17. Email addresses are two a penny, My ISP # changes up to three times a day, fecking pain in the arris, and I have to pay for a permanent one. So how would that work? Just curious! TC
  18. i cant see how a black net would stand out against a dark background at night. the best thing they added into any camo pattern was shadow...........ever present in nature. I agree about the camo, but shadow is broken up and not a tangible wall of solid black. Just playing devils advocate here, as I have never tried a black net so am not in a position to speak with any authority. My thoughts, does the rabbits see the net as we do? IE we are always looking at the net from above, where they are looking at it from ground level. For there to be shadow there has to be light to give contas

    Funny Ryms

    The cuckoo sits in the tall green grass, It's wings folded tightly, It's beak up it's ass. Now in this position, it can only say twit, for it's hard to say cuckoo, with a beak full of shit. TC
  20. There was one very experienced netter who stated that black was a colour he had tried and it did not work. Reason being that he stated the net stood out as a black line against the hedge and spooked the rabbits. I do not know how much the net would stand out being darker than the background hedge, but what I do know is the wife has a jet black pot licker and when I take her out at night she is bloody invizable without a torch.

    This is what they have been selling for on ebay in the last few weeks. http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=crown+staffordshire+hunting+scene&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=0&_okw=&_oexkw=&_adv=1&LH_Complete=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=200&_fpos=&LH_SALE_CURRENCY=0&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=50 TC
  22. Depending what size the twine is 4 6 8 or even 10z seen them all for sale. 4 or 6 z and it's a bargain, anything over and the poles and basket would be worth £60 alone. TC

  24. what oz nets are you using mate ? Nets are not measured by oz It's not 4oz or 6oz the proper name for them is 210/12 =4z or 210/18 = 6z the Z just denotes the way thread was made. You can also have S twist, I am making a net at the moment out of Irish linnen with a reverse Z twist. TC
