omg the guy is selling his nets ,if you dont want them dont comment my old man use to have a saying, " better to keep your mouth shut & let them think your a fool " " than open it & remove all doubt" its a for sale section, get a grip man, sorry but cant beleive people can give so much hassle just for selling nets , hemp, spun poly, nylon some one will say each is crap thats why we have the saying "Each To Their Own" !!

Phil am interested in 2 polecats, but too expensive, i have had to cut my season short as i only have 1 hob & 1 jill, he is in a rut at the moment so i can only work 1 at a time , i paid a bag of ferret food for mine £7.50 , can guarantee they will be going to a good home & worked reguarly,if you are expecting that type of money people would probably like to see them work first, if you decide to lower the price , please pm me regards john

have caughht a black bunny few weeks ago, apparently there is another on my permission which is full of bunnies, there are a few tales regarding the black rabbit, maybe some of the old school lads will know more, but the one which sticks in my mind is farmer releases infected ( mixi )rabbit which is black ( dunno if this is true ) another 1 is farmer used to release black bunny & if the farmer/gamekeeper didnt spot it on his rounds he new it had possibly been poached, also meant to be unlucky to kill a black rabbit,i always backfill after i leave the sett, but if im still working it i

nice one matey , team talks great shot of them all , are you still using a mk1 ??

can you elaborate regarding future breeding ?? & what age do the manufacturers reccomend the implant ? it seems to me my vet is singing the prasies of this implant for reasons of finacial rather than welfare ?? maybe wrong but mine are only 8 months old & according to your post too young to be implanted , yet the vet didnt mention minimum ages & i told him mine are only young & i dont want to breed from my ferrets, my hob is in a season & my jill came into season in december ( now out of season ) does that mean she is ok to be implanted or is she still too young any in

nor would i breed something that i dont have a clue about not being funny but if you are asking questions like you are , you should have done more research before getting your ferrets, what happens if you cant sell them, no one wants them ?? jill dies at birth , kits get eaten etc not as simple as you may think ,this is how rescues end up with unwanted kits , sorry for being harsh but please re think before you commit yourself, thats me being honest even if it may offend a.t.b john

top result & the wee lad looks like he enjoyed himself , caught a black rabbit myself the other week, let it go , then my hob backed it into a stop end in another sett then i had to dispatch it , heard so many tales about black rabbits, but wasnt letting it go twice , happy hunting regards john

kay, since posting this i have trawled the internet for as much information as i could find, seems tests are still ongoing & found some intersting articles regarding castration & chemical castration,just googling came up with all sorts of results , i have also managed to get a few peoples dissertations on this subject, intersting read regards john

I uncovered this link about these implants & it looks like males can still be fertile for up to 3 months AFTER its been administered http://www.stlzoo.org/downloads/Deslorelin.pdf cheers kay have been looking on other forums regarding these implants, i need my hob sorting asap ,i will get as much info as i can from the vet but i think they could be pushing for the implants & we are the guinea pigs, apprently they are making claims that implants reduce the possibilty of adrenal ( having surgery before a certain age is meant to have links with adrenal)from what i understa

cheers for the replies ,will let you know if i decide on the implant, maybe get him implanted & her done, wouldnt mind breeding him in future, regards john
