1 tip of intreduceing them if u havent already just left her in there with him, is to do it in a place he dont consider his own for a bit, then clean the court out and put them in there, keep an eye on them over the hour or so and then just go with ur instinks, he'l just be getting used to new smells and sorting out the pecking order tis all wont go for long, but rememeber what time of year it is and keep an eye on his balls and her vulva unless u want babys that is.

that looks cool man, i have a simuler set up but without the slope, mine are in there all the time, just cut a peice of ply the same size as the opening on the bit that u would lift to get the eggs out of and drilled a 4" hole with the hole saw in it to let the ferrets get in and out dose the trick a goodun, oh and meshed the floor too, altho im changeing that soon as cos its a pain to get in and clean under the indoor bit. keep up the good work atb Danny

not the best of pictures but heres my two vinnie and panda when i first got them at 6 and 8 weeks old, they are working just like my albinos and my poley colourd ones did at their age and are comeing on just fine, its not the colour its the time and effert put into them that makes a worker, u can pick up a none worker and get them to work just good as anyother with time spent on them.

nice one Gaz glad they come along so great already, they deffo takeing after their mams and dad, glad they are tameing down loads too shows u must be doing something good with them and spending loads of ur time on them. 5 is a good number first time out and free fodder for the ferrts great stuff.

kobi2k4 replied to goose123's topic in Ferrets & Ferreting
hi goos and welcome to the forum, If i had just taken on board a 12 week old I wouldnt be working her till maybe end of november if not a little later like december or jan, if ur happy with the size of her and u think shed be ready then go for it around them times, shed be around 6munth old!!! atb -
I thort we disgused most of this while u was here, but then again i was proberly ramberling on eh lol ... ul need a fair few more nets for a starter id say 10 aint really enough just incase, a little bit of food a hour or so beffore u take them out should stop the lay ups, they will be ready to be enter later this munth if u feel comfy enough doing so (they are big enough to take a kicking if it comes to it), like already mentiond dont expect too much all at once, if they are owt like their parents then they will catch on in a few trips out, do the treat thing like i told u and a noise to attr

thanks for the info guys, I think im going to be looking into the korthols griffon some more as its going to be a year or two beffore im ready for one, but i like to read up on things for a while too, and im also going to look into the gwp they look to get to about the same size of a lab too eh by the looks of pics, and il do some research on both for now. thnx again and atb Danny
-
dam id of thort if they are bred to work then anyone breeding them would want them to go to working homes, and y not breed from them ur self, that aint upto the breeder, not that id be intrested in breeding unless i wanted a new pup when mine gets older. thats also a lot of money eh, but if u get what u want out of it then price aint everything. would i be right in thinking and saying that the wirehaird pointer is th same dog, or are they diffrant? I was intrested in the korthals griffon because i heard its only ment to get to about the size of a lab and that size is just about right for m
-
Hi, just after a little bit of info on this breed of dog the korthals griffon, is there anyone on this site that owns them and works them? are they any good for pointing flushing and retrieving? most of all do they get on with kids well and other dogs and are they easy to train, I have seen a program about them that said yes to nearly everything, but theres nothing like a honyst answer from a owner. also dose anyone know of any breeders of these and a rough price? thnx ATB Danny

welded mesh u buy at wickes for aviarys, the squere stuff, its great and harder for them to get threw, like said tho use plenty of stapples, like ul already know eh. if u need loads of it then i found a big big role on ebay way cheaper than in the shops but thats waitin for delivery too eh. atb Danny
-
my best is 10, we dont go out for the numbers plus dont have ma own freezer yet lol, we go out for the fresh air the sport and to give the ferrets a run around, mind tho twos ma first season last year so mighten go for a few more this time ound seens i got a few more ferrets to play with.
-
should be alright to start going octobour time mate, just small warrens mind tho, wouldnt be expecting much out of them eather, if u have an older experianced ferret to go with them then that would/could be a bonus. atb for ur new ones Danny

I got my bew jill of some guy up in middlesbourgh, shes whiter than white altho i did get told by some old timer that theres no such thing as a white white one and they all had/have some sort of black hairs on them, she will be getting put into some light work this winter seens she will still only be young, theres plenty of folk out there working all types of colours of ferrets, its not the colour its how they work and where they come from that counts. forgot to put check preloved and petsclassifide theres loads and loads on just thos two sites.
-
let me get this right, u bred u jill this year and she ate the babys? then right away u bred her again?
-

Panda Vinnie and Panda

What dimensions would you need for 2 ferrets? What diameter pipes would you use? 4" pipe dose the trick, but u would have to eather use land drainege pipe as this is ridged inside and out, or do something to the inside of the smooth stuff for grip on slopes, as for the size of a court, it all gose on how much space u got and want to use or can use, but id say the smallest is atleast 4ft x 2ft, but i wouldnt bother building that out of block or brick.
-
i was thinking of building my nxt one out of block for the first 2-3ft then wood frame on top, then filling in with top soil and sinking some pipes and drains for beds in to this then turfin it all, but the cost would be so high that would have to wait a long time for sure lol, can only dream for now ( unless someones got a spair cpl of hundred block lol )
