I think I saw some thing earlier on fb it wasn't even aimed at him and just burnt out and another truck was just down the road. Nothing to do with hunting folks despite what he says
-
I made some pigeon was like iron even the dog gave it a swerve. I need a proper dehydrator I think they only 30 quid
-
Basically this but I pressure cooked it as I didn't have time for slow cooking. Important to trim the breasts too I think get rid of silver skin and tendons
-
Well you want 100% bagging so you want 10 yards of net to over 5 yards in distance so I think 90. Double check though cause my maths aint the best

Walk up a hedge into the wind with the dog and an indication can be very subtle. This was mine this morning marking and he didn't even go near the hole and he was bang on. His on a long line because there is dual carriageway hundred yard a way. This is him telling me there is another one up the other end of the holes but it wasn't easy on my own so I left it. If your on your own get some bells for the ferrets collar I would never go with out them. I locator I manage with out but not bells. Though the dog will tell me where the ferret is but tied up like this they are

You have the ideal dog if you can sort with ferrets and sheep and to be honest so long as it is not going nuts trying to get a ferret you can just work off a long line and tether to the side once you get some sort of indication. Let it check out the first netted dead rabbit and I think you would be on a winner. Plus on a long line you can work around sheep safely and sort that as well and get focus on rabbits.

Yea the hardest part of starting a young ferret is if you don't have a dog to mark. Constantly putting a ferret down empty holes at least a young one they just start messing. So do your best to find holes with some thing in assuming you don't have dog. Good luck and enjoy. Another thing that will happen if you don't have a dog after putting the ferret down numerous empty holes you will get sloppy with the nets or not even bother and that will be the time there is some thing at home lol

Do gooding bunch of wobbles getting sick of them all cant do this cant do that no end to it

Scout it well for few days. Around here they might hit a field hard for a week every day and then gone. But up north I think you have it better
-
No he air scents a lot. He will stand down wind and just suck it in. This was close but there was a fox just down in the valley He will hold a line across field full tilt like a hound. As a pup he would bolt across a field like a bullet and blank me and I thought what a noob but when he got other side he would flush some thing
-
His a collie grey x bull grey. Best nose I have ever seen and goes at stuff like a bull at a gate. Like having a 27 inch terrier. Bright as a button which means he runs rings around me. My next pup is on order and will be a mix of collie,kelpie grey so that tells you some thing lol
-
Easy to live with factors into it. Also a full on type won't care if your down the park or in the woods if some gets up its going in. So consider that too

Since I stopped aiming my shotgun with one eye and just pointing it with two open my shooting has improved no end. Even now though I some times fall into the trap of thinking about the shot and start aiming and miss. If I just concentrate on looking at the target and forget the gun I do ok. Also find if for example a pile of birds turn up I can miss unless I try and really focus on one bird then I am ok. Just my findings

I rewaxed me old wax jacket and sat in hedge last night lashing rain and was dry as a bone

Sorry to hear charts but she had a good life that is all that matters
-
but but there is a big difference in a bunch of idiots doing damage and causing mayhem compared to some chap who keeps well away from any homes and live stock and you don't know his there or been there.

STick a cage trap up against the side of the bank on most streams or rivers. Have a look in the mud for tracks to see if any about. Don't even need to bait it just cover it up a bit like a tunnel though bait won't hurt lol. Legally I suspect you have to kill it no clue though as not my thing now days. But back in the days of cobbledick you could get 5-6 quid a pelt. They scream and let off right stink

This came out too last week Shooting them selves in the foot. Soon be moaning when people try stop them shooting which is in motion now. The guy that had his kennels ram raided implied it was coursers when really it would be some random dog thiefs
-
What Phil said about the squirrels rings so true. The dog marked one up a tree in a hedge row once and what ever side I went the squirrel shuffled around the other side . I could only ever see a bushy tail. We kept this up for an age as I was determined. I turned around and the dog had gone and then ten minutes later he came trotting back with his own squirrel as if to say your pretty shite at this so this is how you do it. Bloody smart arse dogs hey
-
