    Canada Geese

    ZacB replied to selvey's topic in Wildfowling

    Naff all to do with your question - sorry, but have to ask as I've been told all sorts in the past. Do Canada's make good eating? Some say tough as old leather forget about them. Somebody else said take off the breast meat, treat like a good piece of steak and don't over cook - this I like the sound of. As already said, sorry for hi-jacking thread but you seem to have an interest in Canada's so assume you must do something with em.

    Charging somebody to control pests / vermin for them ! Let the buggers drown in their own greed. Wouldn't even consider this - if nobody paid then they would come running when rats & rabbits were giving them grief. Then you could have the pleasure in telling them to sod off! Rant over - bye bye, have a good day :-)

    Brings back memories........ On a journey home from school I had "what's a dildo dad?" As a responsible father type I answered "ask your mother when we get I home son"......

    Makes the price of a snip for a hob seem very reasonable

    Great to see the photos

    Bit of a trek but... http://www.shootingshow.co.uk/index.html 14-16th feb

    Ferreted / clean head shot - £1. gutted. If Shotgun / not clean kill, 90p gutted (def ferret grub). Somebody around here buys to supply a local zoo and will pay £1. guts in, skin on for a ferreted / rifle shot bunny. £2.50 seems a good price. Rabbits around here seem to be getting a bit scarce so supply and demand etc may see those prices I've quoted on the up. Enjoy the experience of ferreting and shooting so really thinking about laying off a little just to let numbers come up a bit......everything should be in balance I like to think and for £2 now I would rather leave alone and have lots

    We found by being up front with our FEO did no harm. Told him what and where we wanted to shoot, similar to yourself a fox problem around us at the time. He advised on a calibre for fox that he would be happy granting. This was a first time application for FAC - no problems and granted

    Search out a local beekeeping association and see what hives are being used in your area. We use commercial hives (have a top bar waiting to be filled though to have a play with), lots around us use nationals. Have had some experience with poly's but think my cedar hives will out last so greener / cheaper / more indestructible in the long run - land rover springs to mind. Search out your local association for some guidance

    Recommend better shot placement next time.............I'm thinking you wouldn't need to gut if in the right place Very humane, don't think they would have felt much.

    If only closer - always the way. Good luck with the sale

    We only cold smoke. Old fridge plus ProQ smoker. Works a treat and not too pricey www.macsbbq.com

    Time to be honest.....ferret slipped a collar, not a place where we have had to dig much so this was a bit of a bugger!
  23. ZacB
    Glad you didn't have to dig as deep as ratsmasher (new Andy Kelly nets post), like the photos
  24. ZacB
    Decided to invest in some Andy Kelly nets - thanks forum for the contact. The Tom Daley specials, Pretty in Pink very eye catching Andy - I thought you would have tied the pegs on for me and also are they colourfast at 40C or should I use an eco wash Anyway, nets were great can only echo what has been said already. Joined by Ratsmasher (fellow forum member) who says we need a new spade or somebody else to dig in future, may need to look at that thread about spades. Four warrens worked, 3 bunnies from the first, nil from the second, a manic 5 minutes with 1 runner and 4 in the nets fr

    Hope all goes well. Make sure you post amusing tales of runaway terriers, bolting rabbits and general chaos later please
