Ideation 8,216 Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Aye if you can't tell your ferrets apart then you don't handle them enough. You sure its not harmless for ferrets? Quote Link to post
Hob&Jill 258 Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 What kind of an example would that set to the public about ferreters? Just treating it like a play thing, abit of a laugh. You wouldnt do the same do a dog (and dont tell me you would) so you shouldnt to a ferret. If you turned up ferreting with a ferret like that my first thought would be messer and second would be 'piss off home'. Permission is hard to win easy to lose I think its important to look and behave professionally and that ferret just makes you look a complete and utter amatuer. Quote Link to post
scothunter 12,609 Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 (edited) im sure there were a lot easier way to identify similar looking ferrets without dying the poor bugger mate.stick a collar on one if you find it that hard to identify it.imo that looks a bloody mess mate.

canis lupus 1 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Fecking joker just snip abit of hair of its tail....or better still get to know your ferrets.......... I have to that are almost identical, but I can tell them apart when I give them a good look, but to sav time I have snipped a tail, helps if one does a silly poo or is fighting to know straight away who it was. over did it this year though, everyone took the piss and said he was half a ferret now LOL Quote Link to post
