Kye 77 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I swear to god, i lost two ferrets in the same warren one day..i was out with Royston and a young lad named Nath...stopped all the holes and put the box at one entrance, next day one of the jills was in the box..the other was no where to be seen.. The NEXT season, about one hundred yards from the warren i lost them in, i put in a Hob...i was just bolting them for my old dog to catch, no nets or anything...a few minutes past, and i hear this shuttering and screams, like ferrets do when there getting a bit fruity... ..."Feck me, we got a weasel" is what i thought...the jill i lost came trundling out, a little bloody...i just walked over, and picked her up, she was just as tame...she was covered in ticks, and was as thin as a razor, but i new it was her, because she had chipped her upper front right canine, and i checked to see... A whole load of months had gone past from when i lost her and when i got her back...i fed her up, and in about three weeks, i tried her out after she was healthy...she bolted 16 rabbits in one day single handed, and Royston will vouch how good she was on rats...a feckin demon is a understament...she lost half her tail, her right eye, and a back leg to rats!...she was still keen for them, but i was scared i was gonna loose her, so kept her just for rabbits after that...best ferret i have ever seen...i line bred to her, and she bred me some great ferrets, i think HOTWINGS still has that line, i also think Royston gave a few of that line to Jordan...
