    Last year we managed about 60 under Broodie’s, they all went wild, and have seen two of the hens with a brood each, I agree they seem a lot better under the hen.

    Agreed, those pics had the organs in, but most if not all the carcasses ended up with no organs, and usually the rumen not too far away from the body intact. i never got a picture of the rumen as until we had a chat about it I never realised it was of any importance, but as per the conversation at the time, it was nearly always there near the body. So again, I don’t need to read the post, everything has been covered in the recent posts, or the posts/messages with you from the time it happened. Unfortunatly I’ve not had any shot foxes to leave there for some time, but next time I get

    Got this today, someone may be interested.

    Yes you did say instantly it was not a cat, and that’s my point, it was done by foxes, yet it was hollowed out and the intestines pulled to one side, just like how you said “big cats” do it, my point been (back to my original post) that it’s bollox that if you see a carcass, guts pulled aside and eaten in one night it’s “big cats” and in fact foxes do exactly the same thing. And you can assume wtf you like, I never once said it was a badger, I said I had trail cam footage showing foxes doing it.Try reading the f***ing posts properly, I also said when I get a minute I will find some bette

    I’ve already posted the pictures, and you obviously can’t remember but I got in touch with you at the time about it as well. it wasn’t corvids or badger, it was fox every time. There had been a cat sighting less than half a mile away and I was hoping it was a cat, hence the cameras went out Also it was not over a day or two, it was in one night, and it happened on quite a few occasions, not once, or every now and again, it was two or three times a week. heres a couple I can lay my hands on instantly, will look later see if I can find some better ones

    Am afraid I am going to call ‘bollocks’ on this post, because I also have trail cam footage, of not only a deer been eaten in the way you describe by ‘big cats’, but also several foxes, and every time I caught foxes doing it. Im not trying to rubbish the theory of cats as I do believe ? just saying this post is nonsense.

    So, whenever I get the nod, first thing I do is set a trail cam up, they are creatures of habit, and rather than sitting out for nights on end, I get an idea when and where they are moving, get out an hour earlier and it’s usually job done in two hours

    I build all my own now, all the bought ones were either too flimsy or too small, usually both. bigger is deffo better when it comes to fix traps, mine are a minimum of 6 foot long, sometimes 8. And 2 foot high and the same wide, makes most economical sense from an 8x4 sheet of weldmesh., still striving to get the perfect door mechanism though.

    I like them, mate used to own one and was a cracking rifle, don’t know much about them other than the few times I shot it though.

    A site called Canadianaffairs.com, clicked on last minute deals, one person in cattle class, £160:65p that was leaving in three days time.
  11. Rabid
    Wow, perfectly do able, and the exchange rate looks very favourable, last minute flights for £160, what’s not to like ?

    Agreed on all points with the exception of numbers still steadily growing, ive not seen the same amount of them around for a few years, no large flocks, what I have seen is lots of smaller flocks more widespread, before we were getting large areas hammered, one, two, three acres or more in one sitting, now it’s 20 square yards here there and everywhere all over the fields, the flight lines are broken up as well, I think a lot of that is to do with the weather been so mild and no long harsh spells of snow and frost, lots of natural fruit and berries available to them in the hedgerows.

    Nice pics, thanks for sharing them, looks a superb way to spend your days. out of interest, when you get a good one, what happens to it, can it be skinned with head and feet left on for the trophy, would make some rug on the lounge floor, now I wonder if it’s legal to bring one back to the uk ?

    It’s not just about stopping damage, you also have good reason to ‘’prevent damage’’ However you still wouldn’t be covered by GL as you must have tried (and recorded) all other non lethal methods first.

    As above, but if you only want to fill the freezer why bother with a lease, just book one or two days a year and will work out cheaper with the desired results.

    Don’t do it, your posts are interesting and you will be missed, need more decent fellas on here, just keep on the right side of the law mate.

    I’ve dealt with them and Ian is superb, no bull, and if he thinks your better with something he doesn’t sell, he sends you in the right direction, now that speaks volumes to me that his main focus is you getting the right bit of kit, not making money. However, the stuff he does stock is second to none, and his pricing is perfect, you have to speak to the guy personally, I would always try him first before I buy anything elsewhere.

    The problem with Honda, there are so many different models overlapping so many different years, some model changes were simply an additional letter added to the model with very few changes to the bikes themselves. you really do need the serial number to be precise on the model and year.

    Nice, fancy sticking some pics of the parents up. what are they like working around the ferrets

    Who was the guy who had a kids shooting range and had a few air rifles from off here ? mate of mine has mentioned she has found an old air rifle in her cupboard (family were hoarders) and did I want it, I have no doubt it will be in a right state, and I’ve got enough, but she may like it to go to the kids.

    Exactly what I thought when I saw the news last night, we have played right into their hands all the way along in this silly pantomime, talk about negotiation skills...................

    I sell mine for £3-50 and could easily double what I do now, think everyone else around here is a little bit more.
  24. Rabid
    It’s funny you should say that as I’m currently looking into the slaughter trade, not much available around here (limited to two, one is a dirty filthy hole and the other is an excellent setup run by the most awkward and miserable gits going). everyone I speak to wishes we had another option.

    Great read, I enjoyed that, some nice grub in freezer and a happier farmer, can’t be bad.
