Lucky b*****d
-
Probably just a guy who's stuck a hob in with 5 different coloured jills and hoping to make a fast buck, it gets done by loads of people every year.

The only time i'd keep dogs together is if they were pups. If you have 3/4 dogs in together they might not kick off but if/when they do its gonna be messy and probably leave you with a dead dog or two. It always surprises me how many people leave a load of dogs in one pen for long periods, they all need their own space at times. If I got stuck in a room all day with a load of people i'd probably end up chinning one or two too. Beddies can be feckers for scrapping too apparently.

If your feeding raw then I think they say something the size of the dogs head as a rough guide to its daily intake, like someone else said if they get heavier or lighter adjust it accordingly but i'd rather give a pup too much and have it a bit chunky personally.
-
Are they not a bit younger than that mate?
-
Most of the time i've left hobs and jills together the hobs knock the jills out of season and then leave them alone and allow the jills to drag them around etc when the mothering instincts kick in.

First time? I thought you said............ im cart kings girlfriend, i have no idea what you going on about he has been in jail and i have been using his account to keep in contant with his friends,

Are they not blood feathers???
-
not a problem mate i do enjoy handrearing but in this case i wish i wasnt,ive had the hen to these chicks for 5 yrs and she is by far the best hen ive had,she rears 8-10 chicks every year and hasnt lost a one so for her to leave this clutch makes me a bit worried,i love this bird but summat tells me alls not reet Hopefully she'll be ok mate. I've just had a canary hen kick the bucket just after her first round fledged and it was touch and go wether they'd make it without her but I think they will be ok now fingers crossed.
-
Brilliant mate, they'd be ideal ones for me next season
-
That was a really nice thing you did inviting him down to go with you mate but I bet the missus wasn't happy you gave him her ticket
-
I'll swap you for this pied greenie
-
Whats this one then?
-
I'd say its a cock too mate. Looks like this one of mine except mine won't let anything feed with him
-

gnipper replied to FerretPete's topic in Ferrets & Ferreting
I've had it in the past ending up being stuck with a load of near full grown hobs and it is not easy feeding them all. As for keeping a load of hobs for working its a lot harder to house them come the summer when they start fighting and bumming each other and having to get a load of cages or getting what could be a cracking worker castrated whereas jills can be housed together all year round. -
Probably just because he's in season mate, a lot of ferrets feck about when their hormonal.
-
Even if he's never heard a canary cock?
-
I've never used a snipped hob but i'm pretty sure they have phantom pregnancies after being serviced by a jaffa so don't count your chickens till they hatch mate.
-
me mate from liverpool got a direct son out ov pie called pike very good working dog No mate, if that dog is SG's, I bred it and told him how its bred...! It's Pie alright, bout as close as you'll get, but never direct! that pike dog s/g has got is a yapper i have been out with it and it yapped on every course it had Was it the dog ,or the owner who wouldn,t stop yapping
-
Catch a carp over 10lb and get this goldie to shag a canary.
-
Leave the fecker be there lad, for all you know they could be feeding it or it could be someone from nearby's clapped out old tiddles that looks feral because its 16. If there out in the sticks then do what you gotta do because they are a pest
-
Is he showing any interest in her mate? Its looking like i'm gonna have to pick my favourite pair of hens and over winter them with my goldie and hopefully he'll bond next year with them. I've even got a goldie hen which he doesn't show any interest in
-
I've got the double of him in my shed but the little sod will not show anything affection, if it goes near him while he's eating it gets battered too
-
Shavings all through the cage and straw or hay in the sleeping box in winter and the summer for nesting jills. People have kept ferrets on shavings and straw for donkeys years and its never done any of them any harm, the amount of 'safe' rip off beddings there are now is due to all the bunny hugger brigade imo.
