trapper25 0 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 i posted a few months ago about my ferret losing her collar 12ft deep, was on my own and pissing down resulting in me leaving the collar behind,and put it down to experience! well none of them have slipped a collar since, until yesterday infact same ferret, same area, same 12ft deep but this time i had two mates with me, and no way was i leaving another collar there(£50 quid a throw) so this is what happened after15mins gary in his spandex digging uniform! lee hoping it will dig itself! me after 30mins only another foot to go! the culprit! well i got my collar back, although at first the locater said 12ft it was actually only :search: 6 to 7 ft the rest of the day went well the dogs and ferrets worked hard and my new spade had a work out all the best T25 Quote Link to post

Guest Magwitch Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Was it the nylon strapped MK3 by any chance? Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 That works out at £7.1 per foot to retrieve your collar, good work. Quote Link to post
hickso 0 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 thats a nice bit of digging, good on you worth it for £50, lucky it was nice and sandy. Quote Link to post
Brimmer 220 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 No way you git's! Sands the worst stuff for falling back in when you get down! Nice work, showing that depth though I'd be reluctant to make a start for a bit! Quote Link to post

I find that with the MK3m collars, after they get wet they seem to ware out, and set rock hard. Quote Link to post
