    agreed ... Tricky one this .Part of you wants to put across the truth and dispel myths but the other half knows that judging by the beebs past coverage of fieldsorts,they will edit the interview to suit their own agenda. Good luck on this one mate.

    One problem you will encounter with the jills all giving birth in the same court is kitten stealing with 1 or more jill ending up with most of the kits in her box.This can be fine if the box is big enough and the other jills are allowed to share the rearing.Jealous mothers can be a pain at this time and stress is what drives a jill to kill her offspring.Best to seperate jills near to the birth time .

    Only my opinion but I suspect its something to do with them avoiding the mange mite ,which must hang about underground in badly hit areas.Mange has been absent around us this season.Rabbits did the same to avoid the ravages of mixie.

    gman-Personally I agree with the lads -hold the dog back until its at least 11/12 months.The dog will work at this age but cases of the dog becoming overmatched and possibly sickened are more commen in early starters .Allow the dog to mature mentally and muscle up before being put to work for good.Good hunting mate

    The fox is a true surviver.Ive seen some amazing recoveries from injuries that should have seen them off.Ive also been witness to how adrenaline can drive on a wounded fox.I was out lamping a while ago ,we had the .222 and the lurcher with us .A fox was called out from some forestry and sat down on the edge of the tree line about 1ooyds away.I lined up for the shot on the bipod and pushed the legs into the soft mud we were stood on.The shot hit home but I saw charlie spin round in the scope and disappear into the trees.I believe the bipod sank further as I pulled the trigger.Took the lurcher o

    Big up your own dogs why dont you.Dogs of this size would not be dead,just a bit scratched.

    Right tagwag ,pay attention-open your hand as if to shake someones hand,stick your thumb up and put your mouth in the soft skin where thumb joins fingers.Suck ,making sure you create a seal with your lips. Practice this before getting to the fields as a bad squeal can be just as disastrous as a gun shot in the wrong direction.To be suck-ssesful you will need a good range of calls all done on the hand.Generally speaking ,if a fox is a long way away then a good loud call should get him on.As he approaches ,soften the call as if whatevers making the squeal was moving away from charlies approach

    Rooks carrying twigs.All this is not unusual for time of year.Any snow or prolonged frost will stop any further plant growth until spring is really here.Keep a diary and check it next year against what s happening now.It just seems earlier every year.

    SHAUN WOULD NOT PREFER TO GIVE AMOXICILLIN ORALLY ,MEANS YOU KNOW THE CORRECT DOSAGE AND THE ANTIBIOTIC IS WORKING FROM INSIDE TO OUTSIDE , AND THEN USE THE TERRAMYCIN SPRAY ON THE WOUND AS THIS WILL GET STRAIGHT INTO THE WOUNDED AREA ON THE OUTSIDE MAKING SURE THERE IS VERY LITTLE CHANCE OF ANY INFECTION EVER SETTING IN ,IVE TRIED THIS WAY AND I CAN HONESTLY SAY THE HEALING PROCESS WAS EXCELLENT . Heres another spanner in the works-powdered antibiotic like this does not enter the bloodstream from external contact ,It has to be taken orally then it is broken down by stomach acid and absorb

    CHEERS MATE THINK IT MUST BE DIET ORRIENTATED WAITIN ON BLOOD RESULTS 4 ALLERGYS Sounds about right to me.Is the dog constantly licking the sores ,if so this needs to be stopped as it can become a habit.Bandage the paws up for 2 days after applying sudacream to the sores[nappy cream]Hope you get sorted.The dog will have forgot the licking and the cream will take the red sore away.

    Pulled a fox out once from a drain that was half slain by the terrier.He looked dead to me so I touched his eye and charlie nailed me across the hand and was chewing for a better grip,until I reached for the .410!

    Good hunting to you sir.

    Pre bait a few areas with corn and then wait by them.We used to do a pigsty years ago and by laying out a run of corn down the passage ,on the way home from work,we used to sneak up to the door with the 12 bore and let them have 2 barrels of 9shot. Pigs soon got used to the noise.Most killed with 2 shots was 42 if I remember right.
