    EXACTLY!! we get £2 a rabbit now but i wouldn't even think about trying to do it for a living rabbiting for sport or pastime is one thing but doing it as a job is a whole new ball game all the rabbits we sell help pay for the 4x4s petrol and up keep and any left overs gets paid into my grandaughters bank account

    Gey yourself on the ladder mate by knocking some doors and the rest comes by word and mouth When we started with the one bit of ground years ago has led to thousands of acres of ferreting and shooting permission we now turn it away because we just dont have the time to do any more land and we dont want to promise the land owner something we cant acheive due to no time GOOD LUCK with finding some permission mate keep knocking doors and you will get some

    We are with the n.g.o and have been for years 10 million liability insurance which covers you for most including ferreting But i think there is a clause that it doesn't cover you if you are charging for the service you provide ? i will double check but i sure this is correct

    feral pigeons carry more desease than rats so we tend to avoid them ive feed the ferrets on feral pigeons loads of times seen the dogs eat them and ive even ate them with no ill affect Maybe i will give em a go then we regualy shoot a load in the barns and normaly chuck them on the bonfire we have just always avoided them due to the desease they are supposed to carry

    It cost us £90 in sussex for a vasectomy and that was the cheapest we could find or it's £60 to have a hob castrated and £60 to have a jill spayed It's no wonder why vets can afford to drive round in fu*king great motors

    All you can do in a situation like that is do the best you can net purse net whatever poss then longnet or trammel net round the cabin and go for it try and stand as still as you can so the rabbits hole hoping dont see your feet moving about if the ferrets put enough pressure on them they should bolt away from the cabin good luck with it mate

    They don't want to kill them there selves they want somebody else to do it. Sorry it was the way I worded it there not bothered if I ferret them use the dogs or shoot them so should be ok if it comes off Good luck with it mate hope it leads to some more permissions for yer
