Hey, new to ferreting myself, very good idea to tag along with someone, i,ve got a hobb and 2 jills, went out with an experienced ferreter a couple of times and last weekend went it alone for the first time (with husband) and got 3 buns from 1 bury, excellent day and all ferrets worked well for newbies (or seemed to anyway!). It's very easy to get bitten by the bug but a brill way to spend time outside! Have fun, I am!
