Recommended Posts

Here we go again whin same shit different day. :cry: :cry:

What's your problem Para mate? So their isn't a special breed of ferret called a greyhound ferret. No one's saying that they're a seperate breed, it's just a name for a small thin ferret. People call ferrets with polecat markings, polecats. It don't mean they're polecats though does it? How come you don't pop up every time some one talks about their polecat hob, etc.

 

A greyhound ferret IS special ferret with great working ability and should not be confused with the pathetic small ferrets, misfits normally produced by breeding brother to sister.The rest of the litter being culled at birth having visible deformities. Yes small ferrets do work if you have all day to wait for them to bolt strong rabbits that don't want to bolt :bye: :bye:

You give them all that information and they still don't know what to do with it .You must admit though it's a good laugh. If i could spell i'd write a book :whistling:

maybe fu bar but when youve learned from out in the feilds rivers for decades why should you open up too strangers , what i know about game makeing al sorts of nets dogs ferrrets will die with me unless there very good freinds , i wouldnt give some people the time of day unless i thought genuine and realy game for the chase, to me dogs ferrets catching fish and game is what its about not silly game fairs sillly books internets, if i was realy rich i would hunt instead of in between tiol all the time , some people have a high prey drive and live on exitment some can settle down , i still get the same feeling when i pull a roe, fish with a gill ,net, rabbit bolting, dog chaseing hare etc lobster potting any type of game and fish and i fyou make money all the better

Can I ask why you bother posting on here then whin, if you don't want to share your experiences? Is it just so you can make yourself look good by having more knowledge than the newbies & inexperienced guys that come on here for some advice off genuine guys?

Well me personally i dont contribute a great deal to the questions being asked about the working side of keeping ferrets , basically because its the area i have least experience in, but i do read the posts & try to take in whats being advised , so that i can then put the ideas into practice.

 

I think we all have something to offer, in my case the experiences i have had over the years regarding the ferrets them selves .

 

We all pick up ideas & tips along the way & i do think this forum in particular has the best in way of good basic ferret knowledge as well as the ins & outs of the working side, i dont think theres anywhere else to match it as a whole :thumbs:
