I'm very lucky I'm a nightmare for not shutting them properly when I've been down and it's quite rural where I live behind the house is a dyke and acres of fields they even got in with my chickens before but didn't kill any some highly trained ferrets
-
Both back no idea where they go but they've gotten out a few times now and have got themselves back
-
The chicken coop hasn't held up so well today just got in and they've literally broken out, put some food out hopefully they don't go far it's not the first time these two have escaped
-
I've never liked the idea of hutches mine have always been in converted sheds or chicken coops hate working at people's houses and seeing rabbits stuck in hutches that usualy never come out of it
-
Might do yet if I find another one I like to buy I got rid of loads and just kept that one a while ago as it was the only one I used and would rather someone have them and enjoy them than sitting in my kitchen draw
-
Anyone up for a catty trade had this made by Martin whippet real nice steel core with orange and black it's very well used with no fork hits must be about 6 or 7 years old now is but grubby as it lives in the van and is used daily will give it a polish I'm after a nice pickle fork ideally

How manys he got there
-
What temperatures is that for you there mate
-
When I just had girls it was fine I've got a big hob we got from a rescue place in there and he's a right stinker got nuts bigger than me aswell would swap him for another jill but my little girl loves him
-
Does anyone else spray there hutches This stuffs nice and keeps the stink away clean out poo every evening at feeding time and give the corners a little spray a must now I've rebuilt the bigger hutch too close to my patio
-
The bottom ring does seem to be the trickiest part everything's quite neat until I tie it on at the bottom
-
That is different to how I've been trying
-
Thankyou made another one last night going to go for a bigger one tonight
-
Is that for a castration or a vasectomy though
-
I was just going off the booklet that came with the stuff but I was supposed to get from 11 the 16 meshes then carry on and go back to 11 I only done one row at 16 so it is abit short will try again tonight and go abit bigger
-
That's a good idea with the band's I've only ever gone out with out 12-15 nets though I know some people take hundreds I've never been luck enough to go anywhere with that many holes
-
I think I only did one row at 16 when I got to it and started going back down will try again
-
First time making a purse net started after dinner and just couldn't stop till it was done about 5 hours in between other jobs but well happy with it Criticism welcome I can't test it there's only one rabbit in the house and think she's gone to bed with it whilst I've been sat in the kitchen for hours
-
The smaller size stuff might come in a roll if you can't find sheets
-
I've never had one bite there way out of anything I always try to get the thin welded mesh sheets I stead of wire though it's easier to use and looks alot neater, doesn't sag or go bouncy

Advice for keeping ferrets outside in summer
James broom 1994 replied to Joeboe2000's topic in Ferrets & Ferreting
Frozen water bottles, and bowls of water instead of drinkers and keep in the shade -
Friendliest ferrets I've ever had the kids have them on the trampoline and down the slide, I've dug around in the shed and found my locator and what nets I've got left so just need to get out now
-
At least will be a good excuse to get some more ☺
-
I have only one place to go so far so will go drop them in when I get a chance, kept ferrets since I was about 10 and never had one that wouldn't go down a hole
-
Hi guys starting again after about 5 years, had a ring round and got a few places to try after the summer I've got two ferrets that have been pets for me and the kids they've never seen a rabbit hole or a rabbit for that matter my only working one died last year these are about 4 should instinct kick in and they'll get the hang of it?
