I showed my jack russells for twenty years and missed out walking round shows and seeing stuff and ive no intention of ever doing it for my ferrets ,I wonder how they can judge ferrets when the jill are in or have kitts and the hobs are in breeding mode .

i show and work..

 

and got buckets and buckets of ribbons etc sitting in boxes lol

 

nothin to it really.. just quality ferrets in good condition...

Im affraid it's a big NO here

 

I dont need someone to tell me Ive got a pretty ferret, it bolts rabbits, thats enough for me

 

maybe those that show, need that assurance in life

I havent been to a show for years .. at best i simply found them to be about the '' faces'' on the scene at the time .. not really to do with the ferrets

 

I doubt its any different now .. they seem to have any tom dick or harry judging .. when i first kept ferrets & had a dabble at showing the shows were quite well attended & they didnt have a colour class for every imaginable colour .. have had some good days out but then in the 90's it got silly ... the bitching was pretty spectacular as well

 

i think todays shows are a far cry form days gone by when you had people like lez White & brynn wall judging .. it would be nice to think people like that still judge the odd show rather than some clown who just happens to have kept ferrets for a few months

You got a rosette or a small cup years ago .. they seem to do huge cups & christ knows what else now & a lot of shows have sponsers for each class so i imagine the money is just to buy the big cups & rosettes

be more practical if they gave you something you could use.maybe a bag of fert feed or carrying box something you could actually use.when i raced greyhounds they gave trophys for winning finals and such.ma old man used to throw them in the bucket "cant eat a f*****g trophy" lol
