Gooner 143 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Well now i have my two kits, been thinking about what type of box to use. Looking through the shed i came across one of the kids old fishing boxes Do you think this would be okay? I would drill ventilation holes around top, but thought its waterproof, light weight and could act as a seat. Any thoughts more than welcome Quote Link to post
8shot 192 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 sure why not but the size is an issue its not that practcal to carry it through hedges over fences just for 2 ferrets maybe if you were taking 4 out then maybe atb Quote Link to post
ferreterni 29 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 If you section it off, you got a ferret box, net box and place for you flask. Not to heavy them boxes either, as said could be awkward through hedges. It's free though so give it a go and let us know how it goes. Quote Link to post
BennyS 1 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 It might be light the first time you lift it but put ferrets and nets etc and carry it around for a day and it would be a ton weight id say. Worth a try I suppose. Goodluck with it. Quote Link to post
