    i only used to bolt the rabbits i never dug for them i thought it was only illegal to disturb a badger sett by digging on it which i never did. i was only after the rabbits i had no intrest in the badgers that lived there. It would still be classed as disturbing the sett mate so yeah its illeagal and the fines you would get are huge plus the confiscation of any animals and tools you used Yup, doing anything to a badger sett is a no no in the eyes of the law, and i think netting it up and running stinkers through it probably counts as 'disturbing'. i e mailed a hunting solicitor

    Is your dog used to ferrets mate if so just enter the ferrets and dont put no nets down let the dog run them or if you can put nets down get the rabbit take it in to the middle of the field with the dog and let it go and see what happens mate atb Thats the main prob fella, they vanish into the wood and theres no holes in sight. and on another part of the farm they live down a Badger set, doubt my ferrets would come out there in 1 piece. cheers hello pal a few years ago i had some permission where all the rabbits used to live in a massive active badger sett and i used to ferret them a

    hello pal i normally start my ferrets off ferreting at 6 months old i wait till i see a rabbit going into a small set then enter the ferret i start on small sets and work up to bigger ones as the ferret gets more experiance. when there young i put pipes down for them to play in to get them use to going down holes.

    one of my mates had this problem what we did was got a dead rabbit put it on to a dog lead and pulled it round in front of the dog till it started picking it up then praised the dog every time it picked the rabbit up it soon came right and he's never had a problem with the dog since. good luck hope the dog comes right for you
  22. simonrocco
    all kits gone now.

    hello pal just have a go at the rabbits now or you might loose permission the farmer wont want baby rabbits or adult rabbits on his land. if you do a good job it could lead to more permission.

    bulldog spade perfect little spades for ferreting easy to carry miles better than carrying a big spade about with you.
