  1. Look at the back of each pack there is no difference in vitamins and minerals between the two,they put ferret on one pack cat on the other.
  2. Flesh fed for 7 months,will you put me up for a weekend,in the winter not into T SHIRT hunting,feed flesh in summer you have to be there even when they shit the blue fly will lay eggs on that.
  3. No thats the dogs name,evening and morning walks and cleaning out ferrets every morning,does work fit in any where,milky.We got the topic hot for the chap.
  4. Just shows you can't control the problem,you must be the only one ferreting around the dales need to cut down on the amount you feed them in the winter their falling a sleep in the burrows,bolt one or two and you think there the best thing since sliced bread,milky doe.
  5. Won't be extinct, but need summer to recover,thin out a lot of farms, then give it rest for few years move on to other farms,I actually let live rabbits out where I live,I'm sure you are killing a lot of milky does,young blind rabbits dying in the burrows.
  6. Ferrets are in lovely condition, coat shining cat nuts with fish in it they love it,have 2 chest freezers still won't last till September,How can it be over run with rabbits if you ferret the place, a season or 2 would leave a few farms fairly shook,you top up when needed milky does.give me a season over their, leave it very shook,farmers must love you.
  7. Have a big freezer,how many rabbits can you freeze?stop ferreting in February,you must have a lot of freezers to have rabbit till September.
  8. Rabbits 7 months,then freezer is empty,dry cat nuts and pigeon when I can get them,how can you feed rabbit this time of year like to see the size of your freezer .If I did like some lads on here kill rabbits this time of year would have very little for the winter.Just cruel killing rabbits this time of year.Very easy to fill freezer with rabbits.One ferreting trip.How do you still have rabbits left from February,Shooting 3\4 rabbits is bull, there is not enough meat on them to feed an army of ferrets.
  9. You should try a German roller,they would be great singers.
  10. Lovely dog,is dog first cross,next dog for me collie hound and maybe a bit of whippet in there too.
  11. Have you tried working the mark 3,what a load of shite it is,after all the years they bring out noisy piece of shite, I know u can mute it but it is useless, only problem with the mark 1 was the wheel were always loosen,the mark 3 is like a little ambulance noise and lights,had mark 3 but sold it,know a lot of people don't like mark 3,so when is mark 4 coming out hopefully mark 1 with better whee.l
  12. 5 or 6 months in small burrows.
  13. You would go in any where for rabbits .Dogs always on form, right little pot filler you have there .
  14. I call them after old rogues that live nearby,Nancy and so on won' t say too many names they might have relations on the site,but have a good laugh ferreting naming who is going to ground.
  15. Starting a young ferret let him come out to the field a bit before picking him up, spit on the back of your hand and when he is getting a drink pick him up with the other hand,put ferret to the mouth of the burrow let him go down himself,put him in the deepest part off the burrow first.
  16. Never ferret near bullocks.Only put ferrets in burrow that are housed together.If not housed together they often fight in the borrow or will be looking for each other instead of rabbits.
  17. Hope they turn out good ones mate.Ferreting is some addiction.
  18. When are you breeding?I will take two off your hand,great dog on them rabbits.
  19. Day old chicks,no nutrition in them.Ferrets need high protein food.
  20. That was me who posted that, its also posted on here somewhere. Glad you liked it Fly! R.I.P. Jim !!! It is brilliant,reminds me when I used to ferret with me granduncle,would be a lovely poem under a ferreting picture,you can relate to every thing in the poem.R.I.P. Jim. The Dubs love their hunting,some land in north county Dublin.
  21. Great pictures,what cross is the landing net or I mean dog?how did you teach the dog to land fish?very good.
  22. Great at the back of the Protestant Church in Rahan,Biggest I ever caught was 3 1/2 lb on worm early on in the year you would be sure of a couple 1lb or little over every time ye go to fish,and some times 2 plus, they just love the minnow.May onwards great for fly fishing a lot of flys going down the river.But if you want really big fish ye have to go west.And always see a mink they would rob ur food.
  23. First pine martin I Ever saw was 25 years ago out in Ballyboggan dogs chased it went up a tree,I taught I had found a new species.
  24. That is one hungry fox,didn t care about the polecat really.Dug down to a ferret one day when i was very young,the ferret was in and out with big bushy tail,broke through no rabbit only big hob ferret,got piece of stick shoved it further up the hole and a small vixen bolted from a very small hole with plenty of rabbit dropping and tearings,I learned what the bushy tail means that day.
  25. Breed her,house her with the kits you are keeping, she might not fight with them she will be with them from day one,its hard to get a deadly ferret. The good ones must be breed,best to the best hope for the best.To many pet ferrets around.
