Better drinking it out of the bottle
-
Can you get someone from your neck of the woods to do it matty? That way they get scouse and welsh rolled into one
-
Yup coz if you'd read some of the stuff available on here you'd know why your wires were knocked or pulled tight without catching and would know what to do to stop it happening and improve your catch rate, read through the stickys by snareman
-
Mate of mine reckoned that poleys could jump better than albinos etc until i pointed out that you get poleys and albinos in the same litter
-
I'm withyou there mate, not 30 yet but I can see it coming
-
I'm on it too, feck knows why coz it just annoys me getting sheep thrown at you and all the other silly shite and all the c**ts I couldn't be arsed with and never spoke to at school sending me 'friend' requests???
-
If they are stripping all of them to the bone then i'd be tempted to put another in, you can't feed young animals too much imo and i'd also give whole carcase rather than just bits of chicken.

When I tried to get a litter off my bitch the dog (v experienced) couldn't get it in so after a few attempts my mate got his finger lubed up and had a feel and she was too tight. Two days later he flew in.

Cheers Duckwing. I'm gonna give them a try tomorrow i think, they might not go in on the ground i'm doing at the moment though thats why I thought about tent pegs as they might take a bit more tapping. Cheers, Gnipper

I'm using wire fig 4 tealers at the mo and wooden pegs to hold em but has anyone ever tried a galvanised peg of some sort? I was thinking if it was 9 or 10 inch long with a loop twisted into the top for the twine it should hold with the rabbits pulling it sideways and not upwards??? Might not push into hard ground too well though nut then maybe a converted decent quality tent peg might work? Cheers in advance, Gnipper

They don't make em like 'im anymore, legend. I've got his autobiography here my mum bought me and the lad who he nearly drowned in a boat made of wheels and a tarpaulin was doing a spraying course at our work last year and he could tell some tales about Fred.

Feed them biscuits for a day and I bet you'll see them at the bottle. Don't worry about it mate they soon learn, i've seen wild baby rabbits learn to use a bottle without a parent to show them.
-
Don't tell me, you've got one of those bloody stupid auto feed screwdrivers that jams all the time! no just a cordless, not so bad doing walls but ceiling are a pain, i was gonna look for a autofeed but if there pants too The auto feed I used to use wasn't too bad, bit easier than rooting around in yer pocket for a screw while you've got a 8x4 on your head.

Cheese Shaven or natural?
-
Buy Woodgas DVD mate and all your questions will be answered. Good pointers on there for making and setting fence and peg wires.
-
I'm saying nowt about mine coz she'd kick my arse
-
Bad news that mate but i'd imagine it happens with any breed as it does with any creature. I've heard of rabbits dropping dead from a heart attack while being chased.
-
Feed him lamb ribs or something a couple of times a week and i bet you'll see a difference in his teeth.

I can't wait to read my Biography, dimples! When Are ye going to write it ~ from ye encyclopaedic knowledge of my life and times? Only may I suggest ye run it past Me first? So I might correct ye chronology? I was There, sunshine And what, pray, is the difference between the rabbit and its habits of today and twenty years ago? That should make almost as enlightening a read as ye forthcoming book. Only, what we did " in the olden days " was catch rabbits. I fail to see why such methods as we used then should fail to work with todays rabbits. In fact, the only reason I see for you lot bei

Good luck with them mate, i'm having to sit watching the sheds over night at the mo coz some tw@ nicked about 6 shed fulls. Its not good working days and night at the same time especially when you aren't even the keeper, i'm knackered. -
Shame the dirty b*****ds can't be baited out, brag about a dog and then wire up its kennel to the mains or lie in wait or something. Its a shame the dogs are so good natured and they don't rip chunks out of the tw@s, I wouldn't advise picking my terrier up the little c**t'd ave ya

Get one mate it'll save you hours of time and loads of missed rabbits that you wouldn't know about. I got 8 from a stop end the other week. Your ferret might not be one for coming away either so you'll waste a full day near enough waiting. You might get some high and mighty old dinosaurs dismissing their use but what they did in the olden days and now 20 years on since they last ferreted a rabbit are a world apart, locators are as essential in ferret work as terrier work.

I got 32 on my new permission last monday which is as you say like a bowling green. 28 out of a ten hole burrow in the middle of a paddock with 8 out of a stop end . The ferrets minds were on other things though.
