The All Rounder Ferret


Recommended Posts


Ive heard stories of people ferreting holes in the bottoms of trees for squirrel, also heard a few folk say theyve bolted foxes from rabbits warrens, like said rats are another. Is there any other small game that nest underground that a ferret could tackle?

If your doing squirrels you may need to give the dog a bunk up to get a mark. :D

I remember that day :laugh:

 

Remember when we met that group of lads squireling on the hill?

 

Hahahaha.........it was quite a popular pastime years ago up here, proper laugh doing a bit of dray poking.

A ferret is a ferret, it will enter a hole and bolt/kill whatever it finds in there, that's about it! :laugh: Some may do it better than others but they are all still pretty much one trick ponies. Don't think you could really class one as an 'all rounder' like you would a dog that can run a lamp, find, flush and catch/retrieve game, locate quarry in the ground, etc, etc..

 

..unless some's planning to release a new super line of super do anything all rounder ferrets for when the EU poley/micro/greyhound markets get saturated! :laugh:

And if there's rats in there she works them like mad which is a pain ,
