Jills in season, in need of vasectomised hob
tony d replied to moocherboi's topic in Ferrets & Ferreting
have you looked in the owners of vasectomised hobs in the pinned section at the top of the main page of ferrets and ferreting mate? cheers tony -
well lads tried the chinning method today and it works a treat. the rabbit had just bolted in to the net as i picked it up it started to scream just as some dog walkers were walking down the trail that goes through one of the fields, i thought please bloody work!(thank god i was not about to do the karate chop!!!!!!!!!) and it did first time i laid it on the floor and then the walkers decided to try to give me a lecture about animal cruelty etc etc so i explained to them politely that its not cruel etc then another rabbit bolted so said my goodbye's(yeah right) and proceeded to chin another

afternoon guys just got in from a trip out with the ferts(chaz and dave), we had 11 rabbits so not a bad result. when i was necking the rabbits thought it would be a lot easier to chin them(stop ripping my nets!) so could any one please tell me in detail how to do it please. done a search but not quite got the right answer. i have seen it done on some clips and it looks very quick to do. cheers all tony

nice one guys, thankyou for all the replys, much appreciated tony

i pull the net tight using both rings, fold in half, half again fold the line up against the side of the net then use an elastic band. when setting the net i always put the elastic band around my wrist then when it comes to "nets up" when all the elastic bands have gone of my wrist i know that i have all the nets up. cheers tony

i got my mk3 finder last week and after posting on here and asking questions and having a good play around with it i have finally mastered it, i think! i found out if the batteries are not in the right way and fully in you do get odd readings, so make sure its fully working before you put one of the team down. sounds sad but i put the collar in the other room, close my eyes and use the finder to locate it, using the sound of the bleeps and using the pin point switch. i can now find it quiet easily. all the best tony

thankyou for the replys, i'll keep chasing the little beggar away! how do the ferrets contract cat flu? would being in the close proximity of cats be enough if the cat has the virus? cheers tony

morning guys, i got my ferrets this week and i am keeping them in a large hutch in the garden, i went out this morning to check the water etc and there was a cat at the hutch, i got rid of the cat but i know he'll come back,(its not my cat) do i need to worry about the cat trying to get to the ferrets? cheers tony

well done mate, you done well with the digging. me and a mate went out this morning we had 7 but had to dig 2 out! still its all part of the fun. cheers tony

thanks for all the reply's chaps. i was just findind out really for the future for when and if i get my ferrets( please look in the wanted section ) it was more expensive than i thought like a lot of you have advised ring around and see what the price range is. another question if i can. if your ferret has had the snip would there be a reason why you would need to get them castrated? cheers tony
-
afternnon guys rang a locall vet today just to querry how much to get ferret spayed/neatured? £85-£100 pound they said! is that expensive or about right? just out of interest really. thaks tony
-
i get mine from jbs nets mate, nice quick delivery. i could send you a couple mate for you to practise with if you like? cheers tony
-
are you doing it the same way as in the tutorial on here mare? if so i found my first couple of nets had a "slack ring" but then i found when i was doing the ring just make sure that i was pulling every knot and keeping tention in the net as tight as i could, i was also keeping the knot as tigh to the ring as i could when i was tightening the knot. so now they are a lot tighter and look better cheers tony
