terrier410 53 Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 cos you use ferrets the same as you would with terriers once they mark a burrow .are you new to hunting. or just realised you may be taking the piss i hope not. Quote Link to post
ben0777317 0 Posted August 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 No not taking the piss. Not new to hunting. I don't hunt with beagles at all it was just out of interest. I thought beagles tracked thier pray until they caught it, I didn't realise they just waited for the ferrets to bolt them. Quote Link to post

Fair play to you. I just had the idea a pack of beagles worked the same as the fox hounds, careering around on the scent of rabbits and it always puzzled me that there would be any rabbits above ground with all the baying etc. Cheers!
