improved stockmanship is to be applauded days of a shity little hutch & being fed on bread & milk i hope are long gone but i think we are talking about the attitude or working instinct ,before ferrets where common as pets an ify worker would have gone the way of the dodo now people are breeding for colour, size & showing never having seen a rat or rabbit hole. Now if you new this up front ok its a chance you take but why are silvers, chocolates & Christ knows what other colours being bread its a long & slippery road we tread. YIS PRITCH
