  1. Had a mooch local with REW of here, we only account for 1 or 2 on our local spot but I need to get me young ferrets and lurcher out as much as poss before we start on some decent ground. Before I met rew I ferreted a little warren with my 2 young ferrets 1 hob and a jill. I havnt caught non in this warrenfor some time however this time I accounted to two. Shortly after I met rew and he had already caught 3 rabbits with his experienced jill on the way to meet me which meant we had 5 in the bag. The next warren we ferreted produced 3 healthy rabbits, its the first time we've ferreted it this yea
  2. We get 2 quid a rabbit just gutted, sometimes we leave guts in them as we provide a reptile centre with rabbits for their snakes, and other places we get 2.50 - 3.00 per rabbit skinned. Its all good and well when rabbits provide petrol sometimes more
  3. My old dog yapped once or twice as a pup but as he he grew older and his catch rate picked up he never made a sound since. As I say my pup is young so she should grow out of it. The whiopet I owned that yapped I gave back to were he come from. Yappin bein 1 reason but jus not makin the grade I wanted.
  4. Had a whippet that opened up alot whilst in pursuit of game. At the mo im bringing on a pup whos let out the odd yip on a chase or two but that should be down to youth hopefully lol
  5. I did but still failed lol. Fitchet has gave me some handy tips gunna try them and if all else fails I will order from ebay. Ferretman can you put a link to the page mate as ive browsed ebay and can see none for no less then 12 inc p+p. Cheers
  6. Spot on that video is, a perfect example of how you want a dog around the warren your working.
  7. The ones ive attempted have fell apart lol. I think ebay would be best but is there anywhere else that maybe cheaper?
  8. Anyone know were I can get a rabbit skin dummy from for cheap? Its to help me bring on my lurchers retrieving. Cheers
  9. As you named above, do your dogs ever come face to face with any of these? Risky buisness for the dogs I meant pal, I take my hat off to you for what your doing, looks a good crack
  10. Spot on that, but be risky buisness mate is there much predators round your way
  11. I fed my pup raw chicken mince with the odd bit of puppy dry biscuit, I started with little and often with mine and started her at 4 meals a day and after a few weeks stayed at 3 meals a day, she's big and strong now and at nearly 9 month shes on 2 meals a day
  12. Rspca and police dont understand our way of life what so ever, but there is no excuse what so ever to keep a dog in that state. I can picture a few muppets hammering fox's for fun, especially with them being under 18, it gives rspca and police the reasons to think we are all like it, im only 20 years old but find myself a responsible person whilst in the countryside and the locals could back me on it, hopefully this puts some of the badun's off so us that set examples can have a relaxed hunting life ahead of us.
  13. He has a different number Tomo i will tell him to PM you mate.
  14. if anyones selling or giving away any albino ferrets, hob or jill in nottingham, could you pm me please. cheers guys
  15. Alot of people say the younger the better, i will prob have a go with em end of september and hope they do as well as yours. Cheers
  16. He was the first whippet ive ever owned, and what you say is right he also had the turning of a bus, at first i thought he maybe a bit of a slow starter but after sevral months had passed there was no change so a pet home was the best option for him
  17. Cheers bud, i ment to put they are 11 week not 13 so still some time to wait for me. Cheers again
  18. Another good day out we had rew, we got abit wet but we got some sport its always a pleasure to work with your bitch, shes a well experienced bitch that knows the ferreting game well now, i look forward to next season mate
  19. Its a good vid well done rew we had a good crack that day and my toes were fecking frozen lol, unfortunatley as you know the whippet never made the grade of dog i needed and after a season with him he went back to his previous owner. Cheers
  20. I received some kits a few week back they are now 13 week and as we all know the season is approaching fast, what age is the norm to start young ferrets of. Cheers
  21. some good stories there and i did mention bolting foxes heard it sevral of times cheers for replys
  22. Ive heard stories of people ferreting holes in the bottoms of trees for squirrel, also heard a few folk say theyve bolted foxes from rabbits warrens, like said rats are another. Is there any other small game that nest underground that a ferret could tackle?
  23. is there such a thing? e.g rabbits squirrel etc
  24. My missus tells me my wellies are stuck to me feet lol just a habit of wearing them everytime im walking dogs and you sure do suffer sore feet from it, hope she does well in the future buddy only time will tell
