    We tried a few burys in a valley we ferreted last year with good success but turned out to be a waste of time we managed 6 but even they didn't look that clever spoke to a lady on a horse she then confermed our suspicions 3 weeks earlier the valley had mixy rabbits and dead carcasses laying everywhere going to try another place next week hopefully we get there before the dreaded mixy Has anyone else got bad mixy on there ground this season ??

    Personaly mate i wouldn't use any of them 10z nylon isn't too bad but them 4z bisley things are cheap for a reason they are sh*t have a look round and see if you can get some polyester ones that someone is selling cheap due to packing up ferreting etc poly may be dearer but as said they are dearer because they are better you get what you pay for if money is a bit tight at least go for 10z nylon they are a better quality nylon net good luck with the ferreting mate hope you enjoy yourself

    We normaly do a bit with the shotguns near the end of the season personaly we use 20 bores with 5 or 6 shot it seems to work for us The golden rule with ferret and shooting is 100% trust in the guns dont go with anyone who is trigger happy and make 100% sure you both know who is shooting where so no accidents to human or ferrets happen also only shoot when the bolted rabbit compleatly clears the warren personaly when shooting we leave the dog at home or in the 4x4 untill we finish each warren HOPE you have a good time mate it's good fun but if shooting with idiots can be deadly

    So will a brace of decent fit jills. Feck carrying 6 or 8 ferrets and all the gear to the holes and then the same and all the rabbits back again. If it was a 100 hole warren then fair enough but theres not many working warrens like that week in week out. dont carry anything we drive round all our permissions to much gear to lug round on foot

    we always take a minimum of 6 but do sometimes take up to 10 depends what size burys we intend ferreting and rotate them through the day

    Years age mixy was illegally spread by farmers and landowners and it proberly still is by the odd person but as already said mixy fleas are carried and spread by so many other ways that it doesn't need any help from humans spreading it does a good enough job on its own with the help of nature

    Well made made well done we cheated and bought all our's

    All ferrets will work to a degree just some work a lot better than others All our jills work well but i do have a couple of exeptional workers and these are the only two we breed from if you want the best breed or buy from the best and this gives you a better chance of keeping good working stock why people chose to breed from any old ferret is beyond me

    Always use a bulldog rabbiting spade found these to be a good allround spade but they dont come cheap about £30

    The old boys i started ferrreting with 30odd yrs ago would turn it there graves if they could see what colour nets we use now but you have to move with the times and bright coloured nets are hear to stay THANKFULLY

    Makes no difference mate also have some spayed jills they work fine
  25. max abell
    As said mate rabbits see in black and white so the brighter the better rabbits quite often get back netted in these bright coloured nets so if they were scared of them they would run away from them get yourself a few bright coloured spun poly nets mate you wont regret it
