chay 0 Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 i finally managed to get my first day ferreting this season .due to work commitments and the like. I decided to head out .The weather was dry and mild with no wind so i put on my light trousers and fleece.I had to drop off 3 ferrets to a mate all out the same litter a poley and 2 silvers so the plan was id give them a sneaky try on the way to drop them off.My companion for the trip was to be my terrier bonnie.I left the house at 1030 after dropping off ladders to the wifes mate who i cant stand and to top it off her delivery burned up 2 hours of my time so it was a late start.Anyway i got to my permission and had a quick drive round and noticed a fckn spanking new warren well dug out so i netted up 12 holes in went the first ferret it took about 5 minutes before bunny one was in the bag but as soon as it was it poured down so the other 2 ferrets went in id say it took about 40 mins till i had another 8 in the bag and lost 3 out the nets the thing i noticed about these ferrets was they didnt skim through the burrows but i felt they were checking the whole place not just the top tunnels they were ace they are from CARRA'S ferret i got from him in march and he actually had the two silvers for new stock,but his terriers tried to do them at any opportunity so i got them back.So by this point im fckn soaked clened the rabbits and sliced my finger with the knife.had a quick look round the permission nothing else looked different but the whin bushes look like they wont die off for the winter for a while.so off to drop off the ferrets already working might i add !!!!the boy was well chuffed and he got a rabbit for their supper. all rabbits were healthy with no signs of disease on their livers either.i saw the first pinkfeet geese on their way up to strathbeg today aswell and all my harrises tail feathers are right in now so il get them out asap.nice to get out even if it was only a couple of hours and soked to the skin Quote Link to post
