Always worth a look, if you have any wooded roost areas then you are in for, in my opinion, the most fun form of pigeon shooting there is. They will be on the rape in the next few weeks right through to spring. Tabs

Stealth, Mushroom, Scothunter & Heritage, nice to have constructive and positive input, appreciated. Dogsn', whilst i dont have the experience to comment, my pm inbox highlights a number of people who disagree with you, Some people will work them, others claim it just is not possible. I have spoken to 2 people who claim to work 100%ers and hybreeds of varying degrees, your experience suggests the opposite. What I have taken from this is that some have the time, character and experience to work them while others for reasons unknown fail. This is a valid discussion which will probrably

What you really mean is it bites & behaves like a ball of fury when you try to do anything with it , spits , hisses & is generally antisocial ? You related to my missus? What I mean is he is a polecat and behaves like a polecat (something I was unaware of when I acquired him), no hissing or spitting but antisocial I will give you. Im not looking to fob him off on some unsuspecting owner, you have a suspicious mind Kay. Tabs Oh come on what did you expect it to behave like perhaps a little research before was needed , i dont think its you, it will behave like

Ok here we go, I have kept and worked ferrets for several years, I handle all my animals every day but due to work/ family commitments etc only for a very limited time. The opportunity came up to take this Polecat and I made a snap judgement without the information of the handling time Polecats require. Yes I find the animal difficult to handle, unlike any ferret I have experienced which is why he requires rehoming after a very short period with me. The easy way would be to ignore my mistake and keep the animal in an unsuitable home, that way I would have avoided judgemental c

I have a 16wk old Euro' Polecat hob (J McKay bred) which needs a new home. Having been mis informed about these animals i dont have the time or experience this animal requires so he needs a new suitable home. Will swap for 1-2 young fert jills to add to my team, prefer coloured. Open to alternative offers. Anyone considering without experience of Polecats please read the forums here first, these are hot handling animals, dont make the mistake I have. Bedfordshire

Hi Waz, I have kept Light Sussex as dual purpose for the last 4 years, we have a good strain which produce 4-5 eggs a week and we also rear a few for the table each year. They are not fast to put weight on but reach a good killing weight without too much fuss. Take care to get the right stock whichever breed you get as many have been selectively bred for the show bench rather than production. Tabs

TY Fezz, will wait and see if any closer available, she (Mrs) is due in next few days so prob' shouldnt go that far. Tabs

I must tell all, imagine a young courting couple out for a new years walk in the calming bedfordshire country side, warm weather, Robins flitting through the hedgerows...all is good in the world. The foot path meanders passed a paddock with frolicking horses, but hold on.. thers a rustlinging the bushes.."..dear what can that be?.." enter Markieboi from stage right.. a six foot cursing monster shatters the peace by falling through the hedge (for the second time that day) almost taking an established ash with him.. "F%*$ing stoopid fu%*ing place to pu a fence...argghhh f*$&ing nettles.

Chub - liquidised bread and crushed hemp in a cage feeder with flake on the hook - dont be shy to put a decent lump on (if water coloured just flavour it) Perch - Lob lob lob Pike - why bother? Simple link or running ledger, tight (real) up to features for Perch, Chub will be stacked up so keep moving until you find them. The forecast looks real good for monday. I might pop out myself. Tabs
