  4. accidental breeding

    in Lurchers & Running Dogs

    Posted

    Adams advice is probably the fairest thing to do as Chilli says theres more than enough unwanted dogs allready. If its too late for the jab, have the pups humanely PTS and let her rear one or possibly two and find them good homes. She will dry off quicker and get back to work sooner than if she had a larger litter :good:

     

    I agree, if the pups are moved on once they are weaned who knows how many homes they will have by the time they are adults, & bad owners teach dogs bad things, i do hope its a false alarm though

    my lass is spot on :good: I was into lamping ferreting etc... before i met her (two years ago)

     

    So since i was into it before i met her, she has to put up with it, and is she tried to stop me it'd be "c'ya" She will never try stopping me though.

     

    She has seen all sorts being killed, shes been lamping, ferreting,, trapping, snaring, She's even been bit by a ferret.

     

    Only one thing i can complain at her about is she cant climb fences very well :laugh: especially wobbly ones.

     

    my mother doesnt mind what i do, as her dad used to go lamping so she gre up round lurchers, my dad used to be into ferreting wildfowling roughshooting, so she has seen plenty of dead bunnies, pheasants, geese, etc.....

     

    I would love to go rabbiting but he sayes i am useless, cant set nets, crap over fences & i talk, oh and i cant smoke so sod him :laugh::laugh:

  13. UPSET JILL

    in Ferrets & Ferreting

    Posted

    I’m from just beside Ellon Jock I take it your a north east lad as well,

    The jill came into season early on ferret love and I got her the jab that was before I got the albino I thought it might be because the poley has never had young herself and she's not quite sure what to think of them coz the albino has certainly had litters in the past and she just mothers them, hopefully she will come round though.

     

    The reason i asked about the poley being brought out of season was because i thought it may be hormonal behavour, if she was jabbed she could be having a phantom pregnancy as she is guarding the nesting box, the poley & the albino jills probably have a mutual respect for each other, but kits being kits need to be schooled by the adults as to whats acceptable & not within the group you have.

     

    I think as long as she isnt in kill mode i would just watch the behaviour & act accordingly, if you need to move her out then do so, i personally wouldnt let it get to the point where they are all snapping at each other, that just means 4 unhappy fearfull ferrets who may never mix again if you try to introduce a newbie in the future.

     

    hope this helps a bit

  21. UPSET JILL

    Alright guys Meikle here, just joined the site n just getting back into ferreting after a few years of doing alot of wildfowling wondering if any of you had had any of your ferrets get upset by new arrivals. What the problem is is that I got ma first poley jill about 3/4 months ago at the age of 9months and she was good as gold never bit once or even offered then i got another a month or so later an albino jill at 3 years n they got on fine. Now i've just got 3 8week old kits on tuesday night the albino just mothers them but the poley is totally out of sorts she's started biting n guards her nest box apricate some advice.

     

     

    Cheers Meikle

     

    Has the poley jill been brought out of season this year, either vacectomised hob, jill jab or litter ?

    Similary, I've heard that 70% of vasectomized hobs are able to produce kits after the 2nd year due to severed sperm-ducts rejoining.

     

    Has anyone had this happening??

     

    Cheers

     

    Eggy

     

    there has been loads of cases of it hapening this year i know to 3 litter born in my area alone :no:
