  1. Half day from work, wee stoat with the dug… -3°C outside
  2. No bother Jok keep me posted same to you and yours ????
  3. Out this morning, just a wee wander with Jess out the back fields and through the woods, she was content hunting squirrels through the wood, cut through a field on the way back and I “see” a set of lugs about 100 yards away, getting closer and it’s no moving get to about 50 yards and realise it’s a rotten jaggy nettle still stood up. In my defence it was a funny light and the field was a funny length! Anyway few photos of the dug
  4. To be fair it was one thing after the other today, I was 200 yards up the road before I remembered I hadn’t packed the ferrets, the lid popped of my greggs tea and burnt my mit, and I got lock jaw when I grabbed an electric fence… ?
  5. To be fair speaking to the boy he’s probably gonna keep him, the dog was in a Kennel for 2 years and he took him away from that life and has showed him a bit work and the dog is showing potential, he was fair chuffed with him today… apart from when he shat in the back of his pick up ??
  6. Nah not yet, that’s him there
  7. 3 hours this morning with The ferrets, Jess and her litter brother, six accounted for, done this bit twice in the last month, it’s a clearance job, still holding a few but that’s close to 40 from it so far. few photos
  8. He’s not long had the dog and can’t bond with it,
  9. Boy I know is selling her litter brother
  10. Dam - Beardiegreyxbeddygrey sire - 3/4grey1/4deer
  11. Moved house back in July, decided this is my new daily walk from the house ?
  12. She’s been ferreting since she was was a pup, with regards to lamping I fell out of love with it when I lost my old dog a wee bit to be honest,
  13. Only 2 rabbits but it’s better than I expected if I’m honest ??
  14. At the grand age of 2 and 2/3rds Jess caught her first rabbit and second. She’s well honed on the ferreting front which is what she primarily will be “but” itchy feet found me trying her on the lamp about a month a go and to put it bluntly she was horrific not watching the lamp and seeing nowt… tonight was a different story and you’d think she had done it for years. Conditions were shite nae wind and relativity light but I thought f**k it let’s see. Into the field and picked out a bunny and off she went, to be honest I don’t think she saw it and just went down the beam and stumbled across it,
  15. I’m of the opinion feed them every day and make the wee fuckers fat so they’re too slow to catch and kill a rabbit underground as I hate digging… ??
  16. Am happy to travel to be fair, I was at a bit not too far from you the other week, a small holding with 5-6 warrants , usual “it’s moving” but the boy had failed to mention he had filled all the holes in, locator went on blink and ferrets kept killing in coz bunnies couldn’t bolt, ended up coming a way with one rabbit that was not for bolting easily.
  17. Was 200 round miles and over the border the other week for 18 bunnies… mind missed about 30 odds!! ??
  18. It’s a 96 mile round trip but if I’m getting rabbits I don’t mind travelling any distance to be honest ??
  19. Managed to get a wee bit permission on a sports complex where the rabbits are digging up the pitches etc, took 16 off it the other week and another 9 this morning with still a fair but to do. Fair keeping the wee freezer filled, done a banging rabbit chilli through the week
