Im currently hunting my m harris on my own without the aid of a ferret or dog,but im thinking of getting either one of theses in to help me out. The land i work over range from shooting estates to open hill ground,the quarry i have to hunt is phessies,rabbit,hare,magpie,crows,ducks and squirells. At the moment because i havent long got him out of the moult for (work reasons) i have been doing the bushing,ive managed to knock up a good few phessies and a couple of bunnies the squirrels are always there....but there is going to come a time when im not going to find. I do like to hunt on

Yeh i know i prob could easily mug the phessies on all my ground but im just busting to get him to connect to one in flight ...I get a massive buzz when hes chasing them he does try hard and he had a tallon of feathers the other day thats how unlucky hes been, looking at the picture "he dont look to happy does he lol" Just wish this weather would ease up i can get out on the bunnies then,im sure hes more than fit for them has ive been out almost everyday with him getting him fit chasing phessies,chickens and tree rats

Any basic training done with her mate whistle etc thanks

Alright mate the rabbit was taken by following on,he follows a treat now he was going a bit too far in front has i was training him ! but i guees he knows now that im his partner and he waits on great,i was due to hunt him again this morn but the wind is Way too much so il hang fire a day see what happens... Im debating to get hold of some ferrets or a dog to work under him but im just not sure to be honest,has most of the lads that hunt "reynard "with me have no interest in hawking or ferreting and i think ferrets would be hard work on my own,so im swaying more towards a hawking dog..Time

Il travel down ferret and hawk ?

twenty years ago we had to put down a litter of 7 ferretts very simular to what you described in you post..it was DISTEMPER..hope you find another ferret and have a good hunting season

Well after a good few weeks getting "Rico" fit and manned down to a tee..i eventully had the wind down and ready to go. We arrived at our venue about 9.30 ish,and after about 10 mins off just the usuall mooching around the braken,a bunnie bolts and fast on his tail Rico......the bunnie was jinkining left and right and my lad had him a TREAT the rabbit made a fatal error of breaking cover and running down a nice strip of grass. After prob the best part of an hour we had put up 2 phessies and a few more bunnies but i only managed the one,but what some good decent flying,cant wait till
