    Ivamectin is what you need pal purple spray Is more of a antiseptic spray

    Watch the ivermectin it has a huge effect on fertility
    You learn something new everyday cheers for that alimac

    I certainly does what it says on the tin, but you get a lot of single whelps or very small litters of 2 or 3, it seams to right itself after a couple of years.

    Yes! They had fun. But we never had many rats mostl up to 20 and the complet litter running around. It is so funny.

    You could have said 4 litters & I'd still say your talking utter donkeys piss !!! 8 weeks & killing rats my arse :-)
    That you got rats in your arse is your problem and i am not intrested in what is living in your arse.So please keep it for your self!Its a hunting forum not a fetish-forum.

    Yep your right, my bad, but on the flip side it isn't a place for functional story telling either, actually hold on, it's summer time!! of course it's silly season, my bad again.

     

    Would you say it's recommended to work a 8 week old puppy on rats before its even had its first jabs? Or is it more like your not bothered?

    looks nice mate!! how much does it cost to fish there???

    I'd guess a half pint of sweat & a blister or two

    Exactly that mate, its a wild loch you just need to put abit of graft in getting there but its free

    That's what it's all about, never could understand them southerners driving round a lake to a peg, rolling 400kg of gear out & sitting there doing frck all for 3 days..

  23. Great Huntsmen

    in Hunting With Hounds

    Posted

    a great huntsmen needs to know each individual hound inside out and of coarse know the land (too date)...........he must have a plan of action for the days hunt and a change according too factors such as weather or farmer not wanting stock disturbed............he / she must be very co operative and let people know his plans for that day ,............and try and position followers in suitable positions such as roads or keeping an eye out for any antis.............obviously you would think with exspereince they should be getting better but it does make you wander sometimes..............they should be easy too get on with and very confident and have good manners to build good relationships with land owners..........obviously a good rider and good controller of the hounds who draws cover accordingly ,...........knowing with the wind and direction of which way the drag is going to be hunted.........he must have good contact with the field master and tell him of how he wants the field lined up to help the hunt....................his knowledge of hound work must be second to none and bringing the hounds back on line is essencial..........he must be relaxed and let the hounds work accordingly giving vocal commands to help there drawing and finding...........he must have great respect for his quarry and the countryside and always do his best too give the hounds the best possible guidance to get results ...................he must be patient on marks,...........let the hounds mark until help is there ,..........keep them keen and know the hounds pitch of voice on different scents.........for me if a day is planned well with the rest of the field and masters and of course the terriermen ,..........(I mean nobody knows which way the drag will head),......but drawing scheduled places as a planned effort will no doubt have some great results as every person is involved ,....it may be very little but very effective as a hunting pack and followers will know how they can help..........

    Back in the good old days, we would only let them mark till most the hounds were present, if left too it for too long you'll have alot of problems with toes/nails, country depending.
