Hi can any help either locally to me (im in kent) or can pay via paypal. im after a locator preferably 2 collars but 1 will do for now and purse nets. i can collect. please message me if you can help. cheers chris

As the above title says finally found someone locally to me that is willing to let me tag along and show me the ropes. He is even going to give me two ferrets as well! I'm sure that the guy will tell me everything I need to know, but seeing as im just sitting in as its piddling down thought id ask you guys. What type of nets do i need for ferrreting? Is there a ferreting net or do i need to use purse nets? and how much should I be looking to pay for these? Thanks in advance Chris

That should say hobs not hods and I see your in Gillingham Alan so that answers that.

Hi Alan, im in Strood. yourself? Bunny boiler, that's why I joined the forum, so 1; I can get advise, After watching videos and reading about it, it sounds like something I would enjoy and 2; to meet people that already do it so I can tag along and they can show me the ropes. Plus I have been advised to get a young ferret and handle it regularly and not take it out ferreting until its 6 months old, so in that time I would hope to have learnt enough and made enough contacts to have some idea that I like it and I know what im doing and if not at least I will have a lovely hand tame fer

Thanks Jamie, not sure if I can contact members until I have 5 approved posts. But as soon as I can I will.

I no we aren't in the same area but in general are there ferreting clubs? Or would it be a case of asking someone I no to tag along, which unfortunately I don't no anyone that does it. Thanks for the reply.

Hi. I'm toying with the idea of getting in to ferreting. I just wondered what are the basics? (apart from a ferret). Also what equipment would you say is essential? Will ferrets automatically want to go after rabbits or does it require some guidance? This might be a daft question but can i use a dog and a ferret on the same hunt? Thanks in advance Chris

Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum and also new to hunting. In fact I haven't been hunting at all. I'm looking at getting into it, was thinking ferreting, or wild fowling, or even just air gunning. I've only ever shot my rifle at targets and to my surprise im not a bad shot. Now I want to take the next step. Any help or advise or even just a hello are more than welcome. Thanks Chris
