  1. Sorry about the setup and background. ha.but I'm sure you can imagine that setup tight to a ditch or hedgerow.just to say lads,john orr is the man behind this.great professional rabbit man
  2. That's the knot used the whole length of net,I tend to leave the loops a wee big big as too much wind might unravel a shorter loop
  3. I tie in the bottom line to the top line using shoelace knot.tie in near pole,then middle and pole again,continued the length of the net using the same knot.takes a bit of time.making sure you have enough line to finish out to end of net and beyond to a bit of cover.as you pull on the cord,the knots unravel easily and the rings fall down the poles right to the end.
  4. Rings attached to bottom lines so they can easily slide up and down poles,keep bottom lines a bit slack
  5. Keep an eye on what product's your using.phenol based cleaners can poison your ferrets.rinse with plenty water afterwards. Kenny.
  6. Mine won't look at them.bad news with lungworms too.best stay clear. Kenny.
  7. Very mild winter and the humidity this summer has served the little feckers well.rats and mice have all benefited from the mild winter.was on a golf course ferreting 2weeks ago and had to run out of the place with flying ants! Hundreds!
  8. Always liked that hob with the white bib!
  9. Jeyes fluid is supposed to be great for sterilization. Make sure it gets everywhere in the yard
  10. She had 4 bitches and 3 dogs.all go in well thank god busy little feckers
  11. Ah jasus ,don't throw away a golden opportunity to own a thru wild polecat,put in the work with him,and definitely get him to cover your jills when he's older
  12. What the fcuk has ferreting become!
  13. Get them up now soon, I've bred springers and terriers before and never seen a more active bunch of characters ever or hungry.lol Kenny.
  14. Best of luck houndog with your new pup.he looks very smart.I've breed from my own whippet bitch recently and the pups are 6 weeks now!.dam is 21"tts and a great lamping and ferreting bitch.the sire is a racing whippet at 21"tts also.I'm keeping a pup to bring on for myself.some cracking pups there,can't wait to get started Kenny
  15. sorry mate,a few lessons learned though.kits will be crackers.look after them!
  16. braided shark line .real tough.wont break.keep lure ahead of the chase thru an eyelet in front of the machine to avoid tangling. shouldnt be a bother.havent seen it yet
  17. Cheers lad's, I checked them again a half an hour later and she has the ten Busy times ahead.
  18. Got up at 4 this morning as I could hear some wimpers coming From the whippet bitch.She was just giving birth to the first pup. I had nothing to do only watch and reaferm her on how well she's doing. Last count at 7 o'clock she's feeding 8 nicely marked pups.not bad for her First litter and 3 days early.couldn't be happier. Kenny.
  19. My whippet bitch is in her last 2 wks of pregnancy guys and I'm like an anxious father in waiting. Any tips or advice on making the last hurdle as comfortable for her pups. Thanks in advance
  20. Grey bitch ,you might say a small grey sire to an equal size whippet, but that sire could have lineage of bigger siblings which could cause Big probs at birth I'd imagine
  21. Have a lot of contacts in racing greyhound world and unfortunately a lot of smallish bitches are deemed to be undervalued in the high end stakes of racing,but a treasure IMO to the lurcher folk
  22. No harm to give the rest of your team a shot of suralan also ,if they're sharing the same hutch
