    i took a big one down in 1964 ,it was at a brewery in Leicester ,i knocked it down a brick at a time till it was about 50 feet high then the crane finished it off ,i got 12 quid for a weeks work and me and the crane driver weighed the lightning conducter in for another £4 each

  3. He knew what he was doing ,he should be banned for life , end of .
  4. thats a mean looking bit of net
  5. If your killing them whats the problem,? just carry on .
  6. They are being phased out in New Zealand ,they say that they are inhumane.
  7. I think Charles Darwin would argue that the minority would have to become the majority by natural selection ,however how many people must have seen rabbits hit a long net and bounce off, time and time again or be out lamping and seeing them hit a rabbit proof fence till there to stunned to move, it would be nice to see some night vision film of rabbits actually going through the fences just to see what is happening
  8. But why would a rabbit avoid a snare?
  9. these two died for mothers day dinner A very noble act
  10. i agree with you Ian but why would a rabbit avoid a snare? whats the threat? is it the tealer? ,to me ,rabbits like wire ,they are jumping through it all day long, look at the picture ,surely from there point of view there is more to fear from a BG than a bit of wire that probably looks like grass, if a rabbit will push through the trigger of a BG surely they would be less uneasy about a fence snare.
  11. Rabbits love these BGs, they will jump through them all day long ,night time too,now from a rabbits point of view ,what would you try to avoid the most on a galvanised mesh fence? i think its placement every time ,not colour.
  12. This is a great oppertunity to get your foot in the door,i know this area well i've been ferreting around there since 65 and have had some very large bags of rabbits,some of the older ones on here might remember Co co the clown ,i built a house for him in 67 near Apethorpe and used to take some of his family out.
  13. i know the fellah ,theres a bit more to this story
  14. like Ian says ,it costs nothing to weather them so why not ,these were set last night and they are brand new ,five of the seven set caught ,though mrs fox had two and they were all young rabbits ,i don't think weathering would have made any difference
  15. t this was set an hour ago ,its a new snare and the picture has been taken from about 3 feet.
  16. painting them is a silly thing to do , in fact why bother doing anything ?
  17. the bodygrip has to be stablized or you will catch nothing
