Anybody tried V12 boots? been looking at the clothing post on this site and other places for no frills tough black or green wellies. i don't care if they don't look good just do the job. Its confusing does not seem to be a consensus on which is best. Thought I might try cheap jack pikes or Dunlop as I've had hunters and others but most seem a rip off now and no where as good as they used to be.
cheers Arry
Guys
What do you think are the best wellies for the money?
I don't really want to go for £100 posh jobs. Jack pike and wetlands both do some reasonable priced ones but are they any good.
Cheers Arry
Looks like you can get them from this site http://www.ba-bolts.co.uk/steelrnd.html
supplies model engineers. Sorry its not a link not sure how to do that, but copy and paste the address into google think that will do the same thing.
I think the screw was 17p

Good fix mate thanks for sharing with us.
Does anybody have or know where I can get the trimer resistor that has 100 written on it. it is a adjustable resistor there are 2 on the board and are different values, these adjust the distance but it is tricky.

Forget the last post! Think I was looking at terrier collar! Its 394 as Chelsea said and they are 1.55 volt so if 393 fit they should be okay. sorry guys.
Cheers Arry.
Chelsea is right the batteries supplied with the MK3 are CR2032 and they are 3 volt the 393's are only 1.55 volt. The collar would be under powered with 393's in it.

I wondering if the vets gave them a jab of some thing as there seems to be some thing called "Vaccine Reaction"

Sorry BGD I don't know what it was, just that it was prescribed by the vet. Thing is he thinks it was the treatment but the vets say no. I use spot on for ferrets and small animals or front line for cats and kittens but just put a couple of drops on each and keep them apart till it dries.
This happened at the end of last season, I only found out because he was look for some working ferrets for this season. Managed to find him some a lady who used to work a harris hawk with ferrets was giving up.
Its odd because he has had ferrets all his life and likes breeding them every year, would h
About a month ago or a mate rang up ask if I new of any working ferrets going any where. I was surprised as he always had half a dozen or so. Turns out at the end of last season after a trip out his ferret became infested with fleas to the point where he burnt his hutches and took his ferrets to the vet, the vet prescribed some treatment. He told me all but two died and they were in a bad way with bulging blood shot eyes and lesions around the groin. He went back to the vet he told him it was nothing to do with the treatment. So what do you guys think?

Been training a couple off rescued gills then run my gills thru after. Nearly got caught out when doing a lane in a wood on a hill. While doing the lower hedge in the lane i realised the burrow had crossed sides under the lane I heard the rabbit rattle across and go the higher side. (shit are we in trouble now) 40' of bramble new ground we don't know and holes evey were. Broke in with the hedging hook tilled every thing i found. One poor ferret in, this has gone from a small six hole burrow (berry down here) to a fifty hole warren covered in brambles, we are in deep shit. Finder readings her

Agree with rabbit demon mate. you might have a little buddy to teach in a few years. Fortunes change and you might find a better job. Any way good luck and congrats on the little one.
