Ferreting Spades

[Country Joe 1,411]

Looks like I have lost my Bulldog Rabbiting spade, had it 40 years, are there any other spades out there with roughly the same size and shape of the blade,

are there any of the draper spade. with the exact blade shape?

if not do you lads no the cheapest firm to buy a bulldog rabbiting spade.

I found a 20 yr old bulldog spade in my Grandads shed and believe me the difference it made to digging was unbelievable. Light, not too long and smash through anything. Dont sacrifice for anything else there well worth buying another you wont regret it.

Used bulldog spades for years. Wouldn't use anything else! You get what you pay for.

Do you know anyone working at B n Q Joe? My youngest brother worked there a couple of years ago and got mine for about £23 quid with his staff discount...

I left a ferret box once,,, compleat with a brace of jills,,, had to drive all the way back,,,luckily it was still there,,,,,

 

And about 25 year ago I left a ferret locator ,,,on a stone wall after diggin out a rabbit up in Westmorland ,,,, I eventually went back for it,,, about 4-5 month later,,,it was still there ,,, and what's more it still worked
