Belfasthunter 12 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 You boys are crazy.. I wouldnt put a young ferret down a hole till it was at least 6 months for the simply fact.. If there was a milky doe or a buck rabbit down the hole a few kicks to the head an the ferret could be either put off or killed.. Simple 1 Quote Link to post

The one 8,579 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Maybe I've been fortune it I've always had enough adult ferrets ever too need to rely on kits doing a full shift ,till three years ago I lost a load of elderly Jill's and that seasoning started six kits off together and there second outing was in a burrow hundreds of yards long and loads of holes and while rabbits bolted I always thought there was more in there and the two adult Jill's I had couldn't work it themselves I don't think they did badly bad I would of prefered them to be started in small burrows as working the same burrow I there second season was like chalk and cheese Quote Link to post
