budgie123 163 Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 I was speaking to a friend on boxing day who is involved with the running of a shoot and he asked me if I wanted some partridges for ferret food. I thought he meant a few but said they cant give them away game dealers haven't taken any all season or pheasants. He said I can have the whole bag between 50 and 100. I will take them and share them with my ferreting mates and de breast some to eat. This seems to be a common theme among shoots speaking to people I know with one chap reporting they just burry them with a JCB. It seems incredible the waste. Quote Link to post
