    Which is nuts, go to the doctor for depression and be in danger of losing you cert and probably lead to more depression or don't go and get treatment because you could lose the cert............

    Same here, was planning on trying out other brands but this seems the only one close to me though I did get a box of Winchesters last week to try out.

    Pretty much same apart from different make of dry food. Country active ours is, from Cornwall farmers, we feed it all yr and not change to the maintenance one, £10 and pence I think per bag. During the season we feed that chicken mince, very handy stuff comes in blocks and shove in freezer taking out what you need, also got my father one of those towelling jackets for his springer as he often out 4-5 times a week and that helps keep condition on him, shove it on at end of day and at dinner time, makes a hell of a difference during busy times.

    Am not going to reply to that and risk being dragged down and beaten by experience.

    Can I ask if you make so much profit on a small scale then why aren't you doing it on a large scale ? Simple fact though is no one makes that much profit off any type of farming unless very niche and then it's not the farming but the adding value which makes it not the produce.
  9. Paulnix
    An the cnuts say there's no money in farming 15k in stock doesnt = 15k in profit... breeding stock are a large part of that so take out 5-7k, vets bills, water bills, feed bills also have to be paid... there will also be normal losses (sheep love dropping dead without warning) )probably only 5k of this will end up as profit If you can make £5k profit from £15k of stock, please come and run my sheep operation! i could make 30-40% profit on a small scale so cant see why its not feasible on a larger scale You aren't counting in fixed costs. You up scale and only do sheep then see i

    I thought the same watching the match about the eye rake until I watched it again and you see Tomas Frances look right in the ref's direction a split second after he did it, generally you can by a players reaction what the intent was and that didn't look too smart. Racial thing is nonsense, overblown by everyone wanting 15 mins of fame and not even abuse, in fact could be said Marler and Lee set a very good example of how grown men should act after saying something out of place, how many footballers would of just done a twitter post to make themselves look good a day after so all to see but

    The comment was picked up on refs mic I think, certainly not heard of anyone in the Welsh camp complain apart from Rob Howley who seems to be the designated Welsh whiner. Of course all the pundits had to jump on the bandwagon saying how terrible it is and get their column inches.

    Indeed,Shay Clipson, the founder of the National Alliance of Gypsy, Traveller and Roma Women think that it's wrong to call someone a gypsy......... If he used a derogatory term for it maybe, but to use a word they use themselves to describe themselves whats wrong with that ?

    You're biased........

    To add topics in this section, requires you to be in the Donator member group. This be my guess, at the top of the classified pages.

    Well went off HMR shopping on friday with a reasonably open mind, came back with the T-bolt in target varmint ticked more boxes than anything else I handled but being a Lefty and having up to now a shotgun background did swing it to the Browning. For me the CZ felt too agricultural and didn't come up very well, felt like needed a bit of work to get it as you'd like but fully aware it shoots well and for me was mostly a looks thing. Anschutz was nice but I wasn't so impressed as i'd thought i'd be but if I was right handed I would without doubt stretched the budget and gone with a Weihrau

    Good job
  17. Paulnix
    Yet you still had the balls to show your ignorance on the subsidy system, hats off to you sir, good job I say.
  18. Paulnix
    So David have you got the HMR yet and if so which you go for ? Rather interested as am looking at the target/varmint myself, I know I should go CZ ( cause everyone says so ) but T-bolt top of the list for me atm.

    Partridge?

    While to say fly would be a stretch we reared Partridges from eggs a few years back and about a week old a handful got out of the brooder, the shed brooder is in is a agricultural shed 60X30 and would guess 25 foot high and they went halfway across it and up to the trusses and landed on them. b*****ds to catch as well, would def say too early for a brood start of feb though.

    Lads shooting them is a massive contributer to their decline, same as the fox population, getting slaughtered by men with their big guns and their bigger ego's. Sorry but that's rubbish, the numbers our grandfathers used to take night after night and send to the markets by train would make your eyes water and they never made a dent in the numbers, farms used to be bought by the rabbits those guys caught back in the pre-mixy days. Alongside Mixy and RHD I got a feeling it more to do with the weather over the last couple of decades not supporting a healthy population, is just too mil

    If you see enough rabbits when ferreting and make sure she not moves for sitting she should get used to not chasing them, I wouldn't be tempted to let her retrieve them though. You would have more control over the day and no outside pressure, you could spend time doing as you wish rather than say sitting behind guns on a pheasant shoot to make her steady, where there a lot of other distractions both for the dog and you. As for when beating and chasing rabbits, I've not been ferreting since I was a kid ( I hope to get back into it with my children ) and my spaniels will look to chase if t

    I wouldn't personally use just a hand signal to release a dog but combine it with a voice command, seems you lining yourself up for a fall in the future if you imagine what happens on a shoot, let alone what would happen if or when you get a second dog to work at the same time.

    We had maybe 3 or 4 mornings with frost so far to ice up a windscreen, not enough to put ice on drinking troughs more than once, this is on the Lizard peninsula in Cornwall.

    I've never used one on a dog but i used one on myself ( no idea the make ) once to see what they put out, first 2 settings couldn't feel anything,3 was a very slight tingle, my 4, 5 more tingle and 6 like a pulse given out by a electric fence when battery run down or the line is shorting out, nothing as harsh as a mains fencer or a charged up battery one and not be enough to electrocute your dog although they would feel it more than a person would. People who do use them need to use them responsibly and not as a short cut to proper training, the buzzer will often be enough to do the job.
