hOW MUCH DO GAMEKEEPERS GET A YEAR?
farmer-alex replied to a topic in Gamekeeping, Conservation & Shoot Management
How much do gamekeepers get a year ? NOT ENOUGH ! For a full time, Head Gamekeeper at a sucsessful shoot about 20k. (+perks, tips and side earnings) But under keepers and that 10k+ You cant go into gamekeeping for the money. -

Here Here "Ferretman22" ! How are we ever going to encourage youngsters to hunt and be apart of the countryside, when you have people like that on these forums. We should encourage and advice younger generations. NOT Mock them.

Nice to see a newcomer! What got you interested in ferreting Paddy? And do you already have ferrets? As far as the locator is concerned.. I dont actually use one, but to buy one, is not cheap. Unless you can find a cheap one maybe on this forum? Good Luck. And if you need any help what so ever, just PM me.

Yeh, sorry maybe I wasnt specific enough in my Post. (First Topic Starter.) She has been getting worse and worse, biting, for the last month. At start I gave her extra handeling, I tried everything I could. All my ferrets are fed on a mix of Meat, and some dry food. They all live in a Courtyard design, with a large run of shed and side bit. The last straw was really when it bit my Dad very nastily on the finger, taking off half of his finger litteraly. It was more his desision than mine, seen as he helps alot with them. It wasnt an easy desision. But a needed one in my situati

Well to be fair, I didnt just decide to get rid of the jill.. Everyone I asked around advised me to put her down. It was the best thing to do in my situation.

You got a nice looking Polecat!

Well this particular one escpaed twice.. She was determined. I got her when she was 10months, she was found wild. But her biting got out of hand and the problem is, it only takes 1 ferret like that, to influence 'em all.

Nice to see young Blood in the Sport.

Yeeh, I agree you have to expect to be bitten some, while handling ferrets. But there comes a point of no return with a Ferral. They are non workable.. and worth nothing. Unfortunately.

Ferral.. means went completely wild. And they are all handled daily.
