Cheers for the replies.. Your right Sirius, it couldn't have gone any worse in the morning, I made the wrong call on the first hedge so was glad the last one held a few to pull it round....... The joys of ferreting...

I lost one last week mate, exactly the same symptoms.... She was fine but seemed a little thin, I put extra food in, chicken wings + rabbit, but the next day she was shaky and really weak just not right... I bought her in and syringe fed her milk and egg mixed and she drank well then she slept for a day nearly, but the following night she seemed to get worse and died.... I was gutted mate, my little lad cried his eyes out and cried again at bed time ( the whole family get attached to them) she was only around 18 months old and was a good little ferret, I planned to breed off her in the future.

Nice one lads....... I'm struggling to hide my jealousy of your nice open buries lol....... Loving the bike too...

Great read Brimmer, and as been said well done your dad, ferreting a far from easy so hats off to him...... Interesting ideas on the ferrets mate we work different amounts up to 4 or 5 at a time... Although these are big thick hedges generally and I've found 1 can be given the run around although other days 1 determined ferret does the job... Depends on the day, conditions and terrain and the quality of the ferret.... Atb Kev

No, I don't think we grow up..... You have to stay childlike to enjoy crawling on your hands and knees through, brambles, nettles to catch the humble rabbit lol Enjoy your day mate.....

Cheers Baz, yeah he was an ugly git that's for sure, think the ferrets were more frightened of him.....

had trouble twice ferreting once when I was about 14, my brother his mate and me decided to ferret the back of a paddock that backed onto some fields near us ( the draw of the rabbits we seen there regularly was too much). Nets on ferrets in rabbits pooping out, we were having a great time....... Then we heard a shout, and saw a bloke marching down the paddock with a shotgun, next thing he's shot the gun in the air above our heads... We all hit the deck and possibly shit ourselves..... The bloke knew my dad but still told us to bugger off, I never mentioned it to my old man as I would of had a

Cheers for the replies lads The one: It is rough in the hedges but as always thats where they are, we just crawl in and cover what we can, the farmer asked me at the end of last season to do this bit as they realy damage the crops in the bottom half of the field, so you got to show a bit of willing.................. but I'll be some where easier next week

Well done lads, good writeup Malc

The plan was a 2 hr trip to Falmouth and some new permission that Mick had picked up, which was crawling, or so we were told. Six o'clock last night and it was all change, Mick couldn't get hold of the lady owner and we didn't fancy a long jaunt to find for some reason we couldn't get on the land, so we decided to go local on a bit of mine up the road. I had walked it yesterday morning with the dogs and seen a few sat out along a hedgerow between 2 arable fields, the plan was to start there and end up at the bottom of the farm where the new crops are just starting to come through and I've seen

I'm really busy, took some big risks in our business over the last couple of years and it could pay off........ Me and my brother started our business in 98 and have recently merged with another company we design and build steel frames and cladding packages, we've got a small fab shop for staircases, handrails etc. The main thing I've noticed is you've got to price tighter to win work but there is work out there........remember my dad last recession saying we were going to lose the house the lot, said he never had a job come in for nearly 6 months....... I agree that the big companies can man
