Nice that mate. Cheers Arry

Taken back in May so it might be a moult, we don't get many with mange as this is hunting ground and they take out most of the rough ones. I was in a green lane when I spotted a fox being chased by sheep, watched for a wile as it started to walk off thought I try calling it, came like a dream. Took a lot more shots but auto focus picked up on nettles and grass, ended up about six foot away the other side of the hedge. Cheers Arry

Out with the camera thought I would see if I could still squeak one I spotted. Cheers Arry

Yes mate it could fleas or mites. Have a look at this site. https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/ferrets-skin-disease I use some thing called "Ferretone" for their skin and coat especially when their changing coats about now. Cheers Arry

Well done Doug, Wound me right up for the coming season, can't wait to have a go. Always green with envy seeing them lovely clean open burrows. What a bit of country side. atb Cheers Arry

Hate the things but as said there somebody's pet. So I use a paint ball blow pipe which i've got quite good at over the years, unfortunately the balls don't break if you hit them. So have aim a bit short then they burst and get sprayed, rarely come except one. I bought some 6" long screws with an eye on the end from farmer store put one on each fence post a 2" piece of bamboo on the shank. Then ran some thin wire through the eyes then came back with another strand took a turn round the shank just above the bamboo witch stopped it from dropping, this has worked really well so far. Cheers A

All working now mate, love watching the kits giving each other hell, nice set up. Got two kits about the same size I could watch them for hours, I have a run on the lawn with pipes boxes hammock etc and they bomb around like a couple of squirrels on speed. Cheers Arry

only my opinion but may be make up some small collars and keep taking for a walks on a lead in wide open spaces(middle of a field etc) , nowhere to hide. Worth a try. Cheers Arry

Give some treats by hand and loads of handling, don't worry it won't run off. Cheers Arry

You can not buy those experiences, he will remember that trip for the rest of his life and the bonding is great. Brought back loads of memories for me, taking my lads floundering mid winter and cooking sausages on hazel sticks. Thanks for jogging the old memory. Brillant that, atb Cheers Arry

I have a separate run on the lawn they spend a lot of time in and put some blank collars on the kits so they get used to them. As the other guys said the more handing the better especially early on, I don't believe you can handle them to much. Also keep mine locked up. Cheers Arry

Its heartening when you hear this kind of thing when there is so much crap going down these day, good on you both. Did the same bought a little sandy jill last month but had a hard time choosing between two all most identical jills, well chose one and went home. Two days later went back for her sister and well pleased with them. Another really nice bloke he was. Cheers Arry

Well said, if only I didn't have to work very true so well put my idea of heaven. Though I skip the mushroom bit as life is going fairly well don't want to end it abruptly I so agree with you mate if you are not sure do not eat it. I started slowly may be one sort each year, But things like giant puff balls, Hedge hog mushrooms you can't go wrong, safer than field mushrooms, and horse mushrooms are great as long as they don't bruises yellow. Worth getting into I promise you, For years I bought books on mushrooms but never had the nerve to try. I'm an old bugger now but wish i'd

I always can't wait to start but it all fits quite well for me, at the end of the season I start fishing. Then about now I start foraging for fungi and mushrooms, this is a good one as you can look around your perms have a chat with the farmers show your face ask whats about etc. Then get home have a mix of mushroom and smoky bacon on toast an cup of tea talk about how many rabbits we think are there and what burrows their in, or if we should have a crack at pigeons on the stubble. Cheers Arry

That takes me back to when I was a kid, we used to snare them on an old tip on the runs that when from one bramble patch to another. Had a rat I'm my green compost bin for about a week put a baited trap in tried assorts, nothing. then baited it with one of them blue rat bait blocks, bag job done. Some thing in them they can't resist, smells like chocolate. Cheers Arry

Posted this photo before but this was my last JR. The wife won't let me have another as when she passed on it broke her heart but still working on it. Might have to take one home and say the farmer was going to drown it. Lol Would be nice to see some follow up as she gets on, atb Cheers Arry

She will save you hours when she starts marking and she will hold them quicker than you will get to them. Nice young team mate. atb Cheers Arry
