niall_b73 41 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 hi all, i have just came across the site on the net so am basically sayin hello before having a good ole look around. well i have recently got myself 3 male (all brothers) polecat ferrets born on 8th of may this year and i have them as pets but am lookin to take them hunting for rabbits as well. i had ferrets as pets when i was younger the i never took them hunting (tho i wish i had) but i now want to take full advantage of what i have now, and take my son with me. i have 10 purse nets so far but really i suppose i am looking for the age that i can start bringing them out to hunt ?? also if anybody knows where to purchase quality, cheap ferret finders even second hand (if there is such a thing) that would be a great help well im of for a look around so thanks for taking time to read this and for any help, tips niall_b73 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

coursing mad 5 Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 try them on a few easy sets when they are ready to work.. build them up to the bigger sets & dont make the mistake i did last season by putting ferrets in a set with out a coller & box you will be waiting hours for the little feckers to come out. happy hunting.. tom!!

niall_b73 41 Posted September 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 thanks all for the warm welcome, i have been looking on ebay for the ferret finders (& sweating) they dont half cost a penny, guess i'll have 2 put them on my christmas list. 1 other question/debate i have had on another fourm is about the distemper jabs ?? should i or should i not ?? as of so far i am not convinced about it as the con's outweighed the pro's this is a link to the thread: (mods delete this link if not aloud) http://www.ferretsforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?tid=12757 please let me know what you think and if you get them for your ferrets thanks again, niall_b73 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
