    It says free postage on the website! You must be really tight if that's still too much! Only joking thanks for the reply

    was looking on their website at the quickset longnets, they seem reasonably priced, has anyone had any dealings with them? recommended?

    I was told recently about a small electric deterant that can be fitted on to or around the springs on feeders, that deter rats but don't deter the game birds. Has anyone else heard of this? Not sure if it exists or if the guy was making it up!

    I have a hushpower 410 and I use it on rabbits pigeons crows rats. I am introducing my girlfriend to shooting and she is using this on clays and she is hitting them no problem! If she carrys on improving I am going to start getting worried. Only downside is the price of cartridges.

    Just wondering when it is safe to let the new hob in with the jills? Obviously when they are out of season, but didn't know when other people did?

    I was in France last week and they were in the supermarket for 9 euros skinned and gutted.

    Hi there, I am playing with the idea of getting a springer pup. However I have an 7-8 year old lab rescue, do you think that I should wait for the old boy to pass on so he doesn't pass on any of his bad habits, or do you think that a new pup would be able to be trained just as well with him still about? Cheers Dan

    You should ask ferretertom off here he is in north buckinghamshire if he has any kits left. I had a hob off him this year, very happy with it.

    The digestive systems of carnivores are too quick for lead to react and poison the animal, however animals like cows which have longer digestive systems it can cause problems. There are scientific papers looking into lead shot being collected in hay and siledge and causing problems.

    I tried breeding with both my Jills, they are sisters, one at the start of the season, and it had a phantom pregnancy along with all the other jills that the hob was with so I presumed that the hob was dud. I then bred with my other Jill with another hob, and she also had a phantom. Is this just chance ? Or could it be something to do with the jills? I thought it could be something to do with fertility of the jills, but maybe they wouldn't get a phantom pregnancy if they were infertile? Just wondered what people thought?

    Hi all, This may sound a bit stupid but I was interested to see if anyone uses hound types for anything other than the traditional sport they were bred for? For example I didn't know if they could be used for their nose to mark rabbit burrows? This is just a stab in the dark as I am not to well versed in working hound types. Will be interested for any replies though. Cheers Dan.

    I learnt with just a book, made a few mistakes, worked it out in the end though. Would have been more usefull to have someone to ask though.

    Hi all, A friend told me that a quick spray and rub of vinegar can get rid of ticks. Has anyone else heard of this or used vinegar for this? I have got front-line spray I was just interested to see if anyone had used it.

    And if you are a student you can go with the ngo for free for a year.

    My ferret has a tick between it toes on its hind paw, I have the tick remover that is recommended in the pinned post but I can't reach this tick. My question is does the spray for ticks also remove ticks that are present or does it just repel them?

    Got a new Hob to accompany my two jills, nice albino, he is similar size to my jills, looking forward to seeing how he works this season.
