[Lost ferret, near King's Lynn, Norfolk]

Hi all,

 

Out ferreting yesterday and my sandy jill went to ground and didnt come out. She was wearing a locator collar but i couldnt get a mark on her anywhere.

 

Ferreting box left out for her if she reapeares.

 

This was in Middleton, near King's Lynn.

 

If anyone hears anything let me know please, it wasnt more than 100 yards from houses so she may have wandered off during the night.

 

 

thanks

[Free Ferret Food]

Shame i've got no room left in the freezer or i'd have had them all off you, do not think mum would be too impressed if i chucked her food out of the freezer to fill it up with dead rabbits

 

Well you could feed what the kits I shot on the same day!

Ah good point, drop me a pm when you've got some and i'll come pick them up, got a friend who'll have what i dont need.

Mine are on ferret food ( biscuit stuff ) and whatever meat i can get my hands on, they usually get biscuit in the morning and meat in the evening.

[German Wirehaired Pointer]

Hi all,

 

Im thinking about adding a German wirehaired pointer to the kennels.

 

I'd be using it for retrieving, flushing from cover and marking when out ferreting.

 

Whats everyones opinion on them? From what i've read there a nice alround dog.

[Frozen water bottles]

I attatched an old ice cream tub ( one of them short ones expenwsive ice cream comes in ) to the wire of my cage so they cant knock it over, easier to fill that up and just pull the ice out and refill every day.

[Good Quality Nets]

Cheers everyone.

 

Is there any difference in usefulness between the ones from sheet netting and spun poly/nylon or is it just preference?

 

I shall be looking to order some in the next few days.

 

Cheers

[Keeping the ferrets warm through the winter...]

Just checked on mine, seen as its warmed up here they've dragged 2 of the blankets out of their nest box and are tucked up in just the coat. Still nice and warm in the box though, they deffinatly know how warm they want to be

[Keeping the ferrets warm through the winter...]

Mine just have a pile of blankets and old coats in their nest box, keeps them nice and toasty
