Countrykid 1 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 few more out with half and half Uh..I know this sounds stupid..but what do you do with the carcasses?Sell them as Bird of Prey food or something? Quote Link to post
pointer 543 Posted December 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Its upto the farmer what happens with the bodies,they get rid of them. I wouldnt feed wild rats to birds of prey or ferrets because they are manky critters and most farms i go on have poison about the place even if its just a small quantity so you never know if a rat has eaten any.

pointer 543 Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 a pic from two nights ago,i couldnt stay long and couldnt get a few of the bodies out of the small cracks in the walls.it was raining and i dont want my gun to get rusty Quote Link to post
pointer 543 Posted January 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 i havent done much shooting lately due to the weather.we got a few the other night but didnt see many.time will tell if this is due to us having killed most of them or if it was just the conditions on the night.i think weve done a good job and numbers are low but ive done enough ratting over the years to know that a place can look as if it dosent have rats but go out on another night or go earlier or later and its suprising how many are about.

pointer 543 Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 cheers lads, ive just come back from another farm after seeing plenty of rats but only getting two.the dogs didnt have a good night and after id put them away and brought the gun out i couldnt get a safe shot even though the rats were often just sat there.i get nights like this when nothing goes right and every rodent seems to be sitting comfortably infront of a cow,chicken,farm dog or machinery,electric cables and pipes.
