    Hi all, I'm currently a part time keeper running parts of a shoot . My current employement requires me to start at 3 pm in the afternoon. I'm woundering does anyone also have to feed there birds/poults morning and just after mid day , and how do they get on with birds holding and wandering due to this early feed in the afternoon . this is the only times i'm able to feed , early morning (6:30am-7am) and just after mid day (1:30pm-2pm). any advice / people with same situation be great to hear from.

    Hi all , i'm writing this concerning my 11 month old golden retriever X coker bitch . Shes my first gundog and all was going brilliant until lately she refuses to retrieve any dummy, plain , covered with rabbit skin, pheasant skin etc... i've even just tried with a ball and she refuses . Soon as i throw the dummy and give command to retrieve she cowers down and runs back off to the house or if out back to my motor. Her training upto this was brilliant retrieving from launcher , dummies thrown or hidden. She even had few days picking up on my shoot over xmas and was brilliant. Whats gone wrong

    Well after walking round some my permission last night i've decided i need get out with the ferrets today knock some numbers down , don't care what anyone says about seasons for ferreting , rabbiting etc... they are pests and on this particular piece of land i have control them all year round as it's mainly crop land , had the farmer on to me saying they all over eating the seedlings. So thought i'd pop down and see for myself , and it was like watership down they were everywere. So bag packed , dog and my little 410 at the ready , wish me luck . Will try get some pictures for you guys.

    Get yourself a bedlington whippet , dam well fast , but good decent size , great for around the sets for marking and helping watch the holes , but also well fast enough for open fields .

    Thanks everyone for your opinions, i no there not the greatest but for my first go at it and knocked them up in a hour a didn't think they were too bad, and the tap is just try stop the cut ends of the wire from rusting its not holding anything together, just a cover really . All joits etc... are done with steal wiring and won't come loose trust me .

    I went down the local gun shop to get some fox snares , they were £3.50 a piece but still i bought 2 as well needed. But after having a look at them i thought i could have ago at making some myself with few lengths of wire from work , well spent a hour in the garage and i knocked 3 up. See what everyone thinks , going to try them this week at somepoint .
