WHO FEEDS JACKDAWS & CROWS TO THEIR FERTS?

[Guest Frank]

Does anyone feed jackdaws, crows ect to their ferts?

 

I was feeding my crew them in the summer, but stoped and now feed rabbit. Looked up on the internet about the parasites they get and was alarmed to find that they have some nasty things.

 

As some of you know, my albino jill died in the summer and im begining to think, prehaps this was the cause.

 

Anyone have any bad experiences feeding them?

 

Thanks,

 

Frank.

iv'e been feeding rooks in the summer with no ill affect on the ferrets and my mate bullet has been feeding a few .what nasty things have you found out about them frank

ive fed magpies and rooks without a problem

[Guest Frank]

Apparently, they spread biting lice, ticks, variouse worms, blood sucking lice ect ect.

 

Prehaps im jumping the gun, as it seems most of you are feeding them.

 

As someone said to me, freezing them for 2 weeks, kills most things, might try this and see.

 

Cheers,

do any of you lads feed your ferrets rats :whistle:

[Guest Frank]

I use to feed mine, years ago, rats from reptile selling pet shops, boy did they do good on them.

 

They were dead and frozen, domestic ones, might get some more, as they are good fodder.
