Went out this morning at a new bit of permission ferreted for 4 hours along a hedge, ma head is cut and scratched with the thorns and i'm all stung with nettles and ended up with 2 bunnies, but i enjoyed it all the same, had my 7 year old grandson with me for his 1st outing He expected rabbits at every hole and he wants to come next time so maybe he's got the ferreting bug as well lol

Earlier on this year a mate borrowed a young albino hob from me to lend to a pal of his to breed with his 2 jill's, he put the hob in with the jills at night and next morning the hob was dead[bitten around the neck by the jills] has anyone ever had or heard of jills killing a hob before.
