Good chance its a wild polecat Going off a similar scenario in the past

Sound doin it at leisure Like the stamp of the hob cant see him getting messed about much
-
Its the actual hunting that i enjoy The dog never gets pissed off. i just follow and go off him. Half a dozen is probebly our average
-
A good dog is the key Although i avoid those were a maize is right up to the hedge. Takes a bit more time but usuually find the dog becomes more attuned to what is needed if working alone

Know the area very well Theres a set of holes just under that oak tree and that bridge is a real give away. Lot of ferreters/lampers operating locally Always fit for a few rabbits when you really knuckle down though Good luck

Had a collar given to me Not sure what kind it is and what batteries it takes Two batteries are needed to make it function. They must sit on top of oneanother by the length of the housing At a guess i would go for a mk1 15ft micro Can anyone confirm this and what batteries do i need THANKS

not big on ferreting where there is a large rat problem. Bolted rabbit and rat out of the same burrows. In your case sounds like the rats have multiplied and taken over. Is there knowhere else on the shoot where you could have a crack at the bunnys. Preferably away from feeding areas
-
Theres more than one way of killing a rat. Its probebly on his to do list.
-
The rats need clearing You kill many
-
Somthing with two wheels that you pull rather than push is ideal
-
I use a trolly. Like the ones that are used for shopping. Carrys all my kit including the ferret box with the help of a bunjee tie. The only draw back is boggy ground as the wheels are not the inflated kind. Saves lugging kit and rabbits around. It was cheap as well - came out of a skip
-
got to give them credit where its due. How does a well brocken and socialised ferret know not to bite a hand smothered in rabbit blood. Yet any other meat is dealt with in the usual manor. They must beable to differenciate between ferreter him being part of the hunting team and that which is prey. My ferrets seem to know when im going ferreting they get very excited when im rummaging abut for my gear. Im pretty sure they are aware that i take them hunting. We keep them close to the house .you can watch there antics through the window when washing up or preparing a meal.

Re kindles a few memories. You must be as keen as i used to be
-
Lurcher x lurcher bit of collie whippet and grey hound in the in the melting pot I will pm you when a litter is available. From working stock. When we having that walk around with the ferrets

Cut what you can off thebone fry it with home cured bacon. Chuck some plum jam in You will be back for seconds
-
Wouldnt surprise me if the dog became a good pot filler. Some dogs dont look the part. Yet i seen enough to know that they can keep the whole street fed. Dogs to big dogs to small etc. Got one here- on the heavy side 25 tts. Not my first choice for what i had in mind - ferreting mooching and yet now i wouldnt like to leave home without him. Sometimes its whats going on under that skull that matters
-
Nice honest read Sounds like you were enjoying yoursels

Them two jills are something else.
