its a bit like if u put salt on a pheasants tail u can kill it

I was told flowers of sulphur burnt below roosting pheasant will stupify the sleeping birds and they will fall from their perch :blink:

The worst was a spurred gamefowl released into a field containing cock pheasant will engage them in battle and lay them low :blink:

hi just been out shooting then went into my local and we got talking to an old poacher who told us about an old trick to get rabbits! you get a few bricks and set them out side the holes then put a LOT of pepper on them so when the rabbits come in or out they have to sniff the brick first then sneeze and kill themselves or get knocked out by hitting ther heads, has anyone tried it ?

 

I was told this many years ago by an old countryman as well - I was about 10 at the time and I was ferreting with him and even then I about pissed myself laughing at the thought - the thing was though that he believed it 100% and was quite pissed off that I was laughing at him. I wrote a short story many years later and included this in it. Still makes me laugh when I think of it and this must have happened over 35 years ago. :laugh:

      Have not posted for a long time now, but there is a probing interest within the animal bloody rights group to out right ban the snaring of animals and I state within Wales though not as yet in England, how do we as a collective argue against this?
      I can understand the argument that traps are more use than snares, but we have to invoke the use of snares when dealing with foxes in certain predicaments, or am I mistaken, please somebody tell me whether I am right or wrong, I do not want to look as though I am misguided but the latest snares do not kill but restrain the animal which is a good thing and is being responsible towards the animals well being!
      We as a responsible trapping society have to abide by the rules so why are we as a responsible trapping society always covering our backsides.
      Is it getting more difficult to apply our trade?.
      Personally I do not use poisons so the cost of job does increase, though I do see a better job satisfaction.
      At the end of the day its not all about money.
      We as a collective can not allow our sheer existence to be erased like a rubber. please fight for our rights as it will not stop at snaring it will escalate towards the usual trapping and eventually shooting so if you care about our rights think first.
