  1. Sherlock Holmes got nothing on you mate! Lol
  2. They will be fine inside your court mate just pop couple of boxes in there if you can with nice bit of straw and they be snug as bugs in rug!! All the best cannyboy
  3. It's not just driving the fields that's f*****g it up it's the damage caused by driving through fences..damaging crops..scaring the livestock.. And I've found that the boys who do drive the fields do it for the jolly up more than the actual running of their dogs.
  4. Ok cheers lads, that's the thing I love about our sport I never stop learning something new, all the best cannyboy
  5. normaly start mine around 6 months mate on nice easy small warrens, but all ferrets are differant some mature quicker than others so you just got to try and judge them yourself when you think their strong enough
  6. what a nob, and makes it worse he must be proud of himself to make a video of it!
  7. no mate they have both had a seasons work behind them and both come from a strong working line but i just wanted to see them work for another season for myself before i even thought about breeding them and only then to keep the line going and to keep for myself or maybe couple of close friends but now it seems its not the the thing to do to breed half brother/sister so its not something im going to do now anyway.
  8. Good news bud all the best for this season
  9. Joe 14 ive had and worked ferrets for over 20 years so I'm not a novice it's just that I've just collected 2 from a different line and just wondered if it would be ok to breed that close to keep that line going, and if it was none of them would be sold just kept by myself and couple of close friends.
  10. Ok cheers lads I just thought it might be ok if they was only half brother/sister but il give it a miss cheers
  11. Just collected pair of silver ferrets half brother and sister out of same father different mother, just wondered if it's ok to breed them together next year if they make the grade this winter?? Cheers cannyboy
  12. Well done mate nice to see people still out there putting the time into the sport without being on the take. All the best with the bitch for the future
  13. Sorry mate but not sure what having a trust worthy dogs got to do with needing a stick??? Think your missing the point mate
  14. Hemp or 10/12 oz nylon mate, can't get on with the 4 oz nylon gets tangled to easy on the ground and cover I work..
  15. Gloves are a bad idea mate cause that won't get them used to your hands handling them, you should be able to hold them in 1 hand so they can't spin and bite you then you can offer them the knuckle of your other hand and just try what I said, they should soon get the idea that biting you is uncomfortable for them and slowly but surely get used to the idea of being handled
  16. Same advice mate plenty of handling and I've always offered my middle knuckle to a ferret that nips and when he trys to bite you gently push the knuckle into he's mouth not to hurt just so it's uncomfortable and he try's to pull away keep knuckle there for few seconds then try it again they normally don't nip 2nd time but if they do just repeat, ive never had ferret that this didn't work on, all the best mate happy hunting
  17. big difference in breeding a litter of pups for your own use or to keep a line going or to just churn em out for profit
  18. . there's nowt wrong with the pic mate it's one of my favorite's lol only joking great dog pal atb
