  1. I thought I had something special ? but Jacob says they all have a good nose and hunt well.
  2. Pups looking really well mate, good to hear he’s had his first kill. Is he hunting his own stuff yet ? ( rather than with the pack ).
  3. If you hear of any pullets this year Darbo give me a shout ??
  4. Cheers pal, I know what I’m looking for now ??
  5. Yes I was taught with the grass sod and it definitely works, Goldtops are something I’ve never had but Id love some.
  6. This is what I use , I put soil in the bottom ( helps stability and gives moisture which in turn helps with humidity) I then put shavings on top, I have very good hatch rates using this method, one thing... two days before the eggs are going to hatch throw the Broody off the have a crap, when she goes back on turn the drum around to face a wall that way she won’t try and take any early chicks to feed leaving the others that are due to hatch.
  7. Hey Greyman, can’t find the sanding scout tips you were talking about... you got a link ?
  8. Always fancied a colt, like the look of them ??
  9. Charts, the duck eggs take 28 days to hatch so should be put under for five days before the hens eggs which take 21 days and they should all hatch around the same time.
  10. Thought the op were talking about 3/4 greyhound ??
  11. Yeah there is one squirrel who heads for a small three hole rabbit warren it jumps 20 ft to the ground every time, he makes it by the skin of his teeth . The pup is so close to nailing it, but hey it’s entertaining to see. I’m taking a good mate out this coming weekend and we should have a laugh. I make the tubes myself.. easy enough to do ??.
  12. Cheers Fred, pup put a squirrel up a tree and I missed the shot, it then jumped 20 ft to the ground and set off across a paddock with pup in pursuit , he put 3 bends in it before it reached the opposite fence ? the good thing about it was he cleared two fences to try n get it, I’m happy with that.
  13. Can’t wait for the dawn chorus and bluebells, love this time of year.
  14. Out at 05.45am this morning, birds singing and lots of different wildlife to see. Only chasing squirrels from now on... ended with two to the scout Lt 1745 looped dankung and 11mm steel. Pup put a lot up but they know the crack and in a 50yrd stretch of trees he put 4 into the same hole in a tree, they make me laugh with the chattering noise they make when they reach safety. They will be there for another day.
  15. I know we all like a bargain but buy genuine if you can , like already said the Chinese copy’s can be nasty , seen some bad injuries with them.
  16. Look forward to seeing the pics as they grow ??
  17. They look as tho they know the score, that heavy red lurcher is a nice sort ??
  18. A good dog can bump up the numbers when your out with the catty ??
  19. What sort of ratio do you get (catty kill to dog).
