  1. Set mine the other day and caught a Jay, left it in for 2 days to see if it would catch any more or possibly a magpie that might try to chase it off its food (like hyenas do with cheetah) but bugger all so I let it go and re set the trap for a maggie. Fingers crossed
  2. I've shot a rabbit with a broken snare on it and my old bosses cat came home wearing one once.
  3. I keep getting 12's might have better luck tomorrow.
  4. There is thousands of hatching eggs on ebay mate, pretty much anything you can think of but pheasant and partridge wont be available yet, april time they will. Lots of different types of pheasants on there too. I hatched some Shamo out off there last year.
  5. I got some off ebay too and they are shite, the ends can be moved wherever you want and they stay there, no twanging back into position.
  6. The vasectomised hob will still have all his urges including the fighting one so the castrated hob would be in for a rough (and dry) time of things, the V hob might be alright with the jills after he's mated them and leave them alone but then again he might not. I've also heard of castrated hobs knocking jills out of season too. Did your vet compensate you? Its happened to a few others, i'd be kicking off personally
  7. My first task as an underkeeper was bagging up decades of shite from a roadside wood, full bottles of wine, nodders, wank mags, mcdonalds wrappers, kids school books, purses you name it it was there, bin bags full of the shit so now it really makes my piss boil. Fly tippers never seem to hang around when they see you coming but i'll catch some fecker one day and make them pick up all their tyres and gas bottles etc and more and f**k off home with it. Where do all the single shoes come from though? And do you girls not notice you've left your bra or purse or one high heel when you've been ge
  8. This little fellers balls are out and ready for action
  9. What time was it when he died?.................... well apparently the big hand was on 12 and the little hand was clutching his chest Police investigating his death found a glove by his body, they believe it could have had a little hand in it
  10. I'm after a pair of Goldies or just a cock if anyone has one spare in the north west, i'm not after paying silly shop prices and only want bog standard as they aren't for showing or owt. PM me if you have/know any Cheers, gnipper
  11. I reckon Horn Beam (Carpinus betulus) would be a good tree if you can find straight sticks coz its fecking hard, Tilias are all a bit soft, Aesculus (conker trees) are all a bit snappable too, Salix would probably be a bit too bendy, Fraxinus would be ok seasoned I reckon. Privet i've found to be good and you can near enough always find a straight stem if you root in the middle of a hedge. I know a bit about trees and what snaps and what doesn't, we have to tie the branches in to fit them on a wagon and its a pisser when you snap a main branch and have to dig another.
  12. Hazel ( Coryllus avellana ) is rare as rocking horse shit round here so I planted a fair few in a few different places, you can buy the whips for about 30p or less, grow your own and some extra for the wildlife
  13. Looks like you could do with someone to help you carry there mate

    poaching

    Nothings illegal till your caught
  15. Good going mate, I took my two tiddlers out today and had 6 rabbits and 1 we couldn't dig to that my ittle hob killed. What size are your tiddlers? My jill is on the smallest hole on a mk3 collar and could probably do with another one making.
  16. Aye and every keeper i've ever met has done a bit too
  17. was told mine have dissolvable stiches, thought it would be a bit tricky taking stiches out with a wriggling ferret unless a sedative was given, as mine are in a court system, there was no way of controlling the food intake of each ferret, so am going to keep them together in a breeding pen for a week or two Were they born this year mate? I find some ferrets put a lot of food away and put the weight on to get them through their first winter like they would in the wild if the opportunity arose, next year they might not be so bad. Like when kits have a big fluffy coat but not as much
  18. They get some old bloke bringing them toast but he makes them do tricks, its true I seen it on the green mile.
  19. Come on then spill the beans
  20. Advanced Netting is a good place, cheap and quick delivery but the fecking knot 20 yard down the line was a pain in the arse when we were trying to set it up just before dark. If there was someone from advanced netting there at the time when me and my mate were doing it they would have had to run
  21. It must mark, a chihuaha would be useful if it marked. The dog doesn't have to be able to catch, thats what nets are for.
  22. Perhaps the smell of piss and shit trickling out of your trouser legs put him off eating you mate
