  1. Do stoat crosses exist? Never seen one before.
  2. Theres some brilliant footage on youtube try freedomofabird.
  3. Jamie pm sent please check your inbox.
  4. Take a look at landmark ferret films website. only £8 each if you buy 2.
  5. I enjoyed fistful of ferrets and a few ferrets more. Usualy just watch ferreting dvds for entertainment during the summer but I picked up a up a coupleof good tips off these.
  6. Im not saying it should be done but if the males are sterile I assume they could be used in the same way as a vac hob?
  7. Try telling them your favourite part of the bible was the end when theyre all up on the crosses singing always look on the bright side of life.
  8. Thats the way I was doing it last season. Next season I plan on using 2 jills and 1 strong hob for backup.
  9. I had an S16 it was extremely accurate but very unreliable so Id never touch another Logun.
  10. Don't see the problem with people calling them micro? Its just a way of describing a very small type of ferret.
  11. Have you never tried a bow back box? Theyre so much more comfortable to carry.
  12. I picked up one of my jills once and thought she was stone dead. Took about 20 seconds for her to wake up.
  13. I remember someone on here saying quality street wrappers work well as filters on the p7. My p7 is as bright as my maglite realy impressive for such a small torch.
  14. Im praying theyre phantoms I could do without 40 odd kits to feed lol. You will feel the Kits around week 4 of pregnancy, with a Phantom it is hormonal and obviously there are no Kits to feel. I have a Castrated male (no nuts) been told by several in another thread on here, he won't want to mate.....nobody's told him though. I was advised a castrated male, done at two years old and one which has mated a few times before. With castration there can be no mistakes, but don't know about an unmated youngster. I have seen a rescued castrated Mongrel Dog used on a female before. This was done be
  15. Like most people I prefer light coloured ferrets purely for the fact that they are easier to spot when Im working cover.
  16. I dropped my ferret off at 9 picked him up at 3. Waited the full 6 weeks before putting him in with my jills. All four look pregnant with fur loss and weight gain but Im assuming this is phantom pregnancy.
  17. Huntersvermin is brilliant. Also huntingfps is well worth a look.
  18. my question was a genuine one but a castrated hob is useless to you for bringing a jill out of season. please dont tell us youve just had the wrong operation done You are right BPR, I think it is down to a hormone that is still secreted when vasectomised in their Hob errr... goo that brings the Jills out of season. I am not sure but I think that this is no longer produced when he has the full-on chop, even if he has any desire left.. That has always been my understanding, if I have got the wrong end of the stick so to speak, I am sure someone will put me right on here . I t
  19. They don't have the same result. A vasectomised hob will still mate with a jill but wont get her pregnant but a castrated hob wont have any desire to mate.
  20. You mean vasectomised? Castrated wont do the job.
  21. I use a snipped hob. Had him done in February cost me around £70. I used the jill jab a few times years ago and found on a couple of occasions it didn't even work.

    I saw a couple of episodes of storage hunters cant figure out if its scripted or not? Anyway I like The Sopranos The Borgias and Dog The Bounty Hunter.
  23. Last time I checked - 82 shots from a 200 bar fill. Had it serviced since then though but I'd expect it to be around that anyway. So 8 mags - plenty enough for target work and then hunting. 82 shots sounds good. my rifle gives me ample shots in the sweet spot for hunting but having to keep charging it when Im practising annoys me.
  24. Good shooting. I see you have a tench regulator how many shots do you get? I have the scorpion 177 single shot and Im thinking about geting a reg at some point.
