Hi all Does anyone on the forum know of a easier way of getting that slimey membrane off rabbit portions ? When you have got 10 or so rabbits to skin and portion up it can be a long winded process sitting there pulling it off one bit at a time I find the rabbit cooks much nicer with this membrane off if anyone knows a quicker way me and my finger tips would be very gratefull to know it please

No touch wood never had any probs with badgers We seem to incounter a fair few mink over the years one of our permissions is next to a long stream and although plenty of rabbit holes we have put the ferret down and a few mins later the fert is backing out the hole with its tail and fur spiked up hissing like feck then you see the big black bas**rd down the hole hissing back Pick the fert up and give that one a miss BUT WE DO SHOOT THE SODS IF WE ARE OUT WITH THE GUNS

Looks good mate well done -
The ferts do seem to be a leaner in the summer even the hobs go a bit thiner sometimes its the time of year also with there summer coats make them look a bit rough so to speak Just make sure they have got plenty of food fur or feather preferbly but keep an eye on the flies or dry ferret food if not clean fresh water and they will be fine come the winter when they are not in breeding mode anymore and they have there nice thick winter coats they look like a different ferret
-
Same hear hope all goes well with her We have had 6 of our jills spayed now with no probs thankfully
-
Only use the metal ones now they are a tiny bit heavier but the extra weight is worth it coz they go in any type of ground never snap or rot wouldnt use anything else If you do prefere wood hazel is quite good and most hardwoods are good for making pegs everyone has there own prefrences

It is highly illegal for this cricket club to spread myxi though very hard to prove Why anybody feels they need to spread this sickening disease is beyond me when there are plenty of ferreters out there willing to control the rabbits humanly ????????
