How much of a problem do stoats cause you
Ideation replied to donny D's topic in Gamekeeping, Conservation & Shoot Management
My point is mate, that on the land where i kill them, they are causing a problem, and hence i get to enjoy carrying out a useful role of keeping the population in check. I also eat the rabbits (in winter it is a large part of my diet) and feed them to the 11 ferrets and 2 dogs that are here. I don't enjoy ferreting in summer, but do it where needed (but dont make a song and dance about it). Most of my land does not need it as i hammer the f**k out of it for 7/8 months of the year, and then keep it ticking over with the gun over summer if needed, which is rare. There is nowt wro -

How would you stop one getting in your pen without killing it then mate? I know what you are saying mate, but i meant that laying traps about the pen, in tunnels, and ensuring it's well fenced, and if needs be shooting them around the pens, is one thing. Shooting any stoat on the shoot on sight is another. We have them, they kill rabbits, don't ever really lose birds to them. Fair enough mate, if you got a good reason and a healthy stoat population thats fine by me. It's where folk hold onto the old idea that they are on the 'vermin' list and actively hunt/shoot -

mate atb on rehoming the 2 hob kits Cheers mate, i'm in no rush, i'll keep them here until i come across someone sound who will do good by them, and get enjoyment out of them, and where i can keep tabs and see how they work etc. Worst case i will get them working this season and then won't have any problem finding a home for them. I got the space so it's all good.

Aye i was happy with 5, but would have prefered 3 jills and 2 hobs rather than the other way round, but thats life and i cant complain. Nice kits SR. The ferreter - Cheers mate, aye they have come on well, the jill has been a good mum for her first time and they are munching rabbit non stop, think the hobs are gonna be large. There is an albino hob in the litter i'm gonna keep with a head like a bread bin. Need to rehome 1 possibly 2 hob kits.

We have them here and they mostly kill rabbits, if they got INTO a pen of poults you might have a problem, but that is generally your fault. -
Thank you my good man, i think you might have a good shot at thickest skin / best sense of humour.

c**t Come on mate, don't be offended, i didn't single you out, i nominated those other two blokes as well.

Why thank you sir! Devils advocate. . . moi?

You sure it's all those countries? It's a common practice (and f*****g wrong) in parts of Africa, such as Sudan and the horn of Africa in general. But it's more a cultural than religious thing.

Think it's just a body type mate, although i guess that feeding in those cases must have an effect. Thing is, although lean, i think of the greyhound types as strong and muscular. I have an albino, greyhound type jill here, but her sister (poley) is much stockier, although weighs less over all. I put the albino to a hob of mine who is similar boy type, lean etc, although also a big lad. I am keeping kits from the litter and it will be interesting to see what size/shape they turn out. Yes be very interesting , you got any pics of the hob and jill ??????? Not any good

CHeers guys! SR - the very bottom pic is one of my hobs (the father to the litter of kits), pic above that is a hob kit out the litter that has thrown to him. Top two pics are the jill (mother) and a jill kit that has thrown to her. Glad to hear your litter is doing well, 9 is a decent size, i only had 5.

I believe your right mate but they should've been named Whippet ferrets if it was because of the roached back.Never had a roached backed Greyhound and I trained plenty over the years.No doubt there will be some out there but I've never came across one. A greyhound should be ,-“ headed like a snake and necked like a drake, backed like a beam, sided like a bream, footed like a cat and tailed like a rat”. I know what you are saying mate, and agree. I love that description, it's always been to me, how any running dog should be. I think the "roach back" thing comes rather, from th

That bottom one is how i like my ferrets.

So it's very small aye? Well then it's NOT a "greyhound" type ferret is it. How do people find it so fecking hard to grasp?
-
"Greyhound" type have been the only ones i have ever seen, and thats just more a body type, long, lean, quite large, with a roach back, hence looking a bit like a greyhound.
