[Nettles]

Yes you can, but I would rather  just have a tea  caddy full of dried nettles, so I can  simply  make a cup  each morning 

[Free permission]

I do a fair bit of  ferreting  and air rifle  rabbit control  in the  North  Yorkshire area,  I am  retired  now so have a  lot more  time  on my hands, you  are quite  welcome to  pm me  if you don't get sorted, many thanks, darkwood

[Nettles]

Thanks  Paulus that sounds simple  enough, my intention is to  make asort of half rosehip  half  nettle  dried mixture for  making  tea,most suggestions  for drying  rosehip  involves dehydrators or 7 hours  in the  oven being  a cheapskate  I would  like to try alternatives 

[Nettles]

Hi folks, I've just found out  about the  benefits  of nettle and  rosehip  tea,I would like  to store  enough  to last until the  next  harvest, any suggestions  would be much appreciated, thanks 

[made a start]

Thanks, it wasn't really  my intention to get that many rabbits,so I've invested in  one  of those food bag sealer things and half filled  the wife's freezer  with jointed rabbits in various  marinades

[made a start]

I was out a fortnight ago, I know its  early  but I was short of ferret  food,anyway  I ferreted a big Warren on a steep bank in a sheep  field  using two 50yd quicksets and finished up with  15 rabbits, a couple  of days later I was asked to  use the quicksets  on a field of  rape while  it was being  harvested and got another 26, freezer is full now ,happy days

[my ferrets]

I've only had 2 rabbits in the same net twice in over  50 years  of ferreting, and both occasions  they came from the  same  Warren  and the same hole!!!

[Couple of Qs]

I freeze rabbits whole,gutted of course, I then half them with an axe and put the front half in with three ferrets, and the next day the back half, they do very well , they occasionally get trout and mackerel heads ,eggs pigeons , crows ect.

[Lucky bunny]

I once got one with a Brocken snare round it's neck, 15 shotgun pellets and 3 airgun pellets in it , a gin trap on its back foot ,bLind in one eye, both ears missing. And a severe case of myxymatosis and totally bald

[RIP Old Girl]

Yeah it's a sad day when a faithful old worker dies,I have a Jill that is at least ten years old, she is blind now and very doddery, but she still comes out of the nest box every morning, although in slow motion,she's been retired now for four years ,I will miss her when she goes.  ATB

 

[End of the ferret finder?]

You would think the Chinese could knock out ferret locaters at  a tenner a go,

[Rats! Help]

I don't think ferrets droppings bother rats,when I clean my ferrets out the waste goes into plastic sacks,and in the past rats have gnawed into the bags and removed rabbit skins ,egg shells etc,,,
