cdo_karlos 30 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 hi i have just got back into the sport and have got myself a 14 week old jill about a month ago for £10 which i thought was a little steap but it was the cheapest i could find in my area (Emsworth, Hants)i am now looking for a ferret with experience in working to show her thw ropes at the end on the season and so i can work it at the start. i have found one in my area 2 years old and been working for just over a year however the onwer would like £25 for him (Albino)or an offer. is he pushing his luck for £25 if so what would be a good offer. THANKS KARL Quote Link to post

longnetter 32 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 I'd say look around £25 is steep even for a "proven worker" google Ferret Welfare Societies....you can do better than that,mate ATB Quote Link to post
The one 8,484 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Divide £25 by over ten years of graft you will get from him thats pennies Quote Link to post
stubby 175 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 crazy that fella's will pay ££££'s for a dog, yet moan at £25 for a ferret, Quote Link to post
scothunter 12,609 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 £10 to steep ,and they say the jocks are tight c**ts lol Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 You don't think a working ferret is worth 25 quid? How much would a working ferret be worth to you if someone asked to buy it? Think about all of the far less worthy things you've pissed 25 quid away on. Quote Link to post
The one 8,484 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Weve just bought in four ferret kits a ten spot each but they first two where two hours away by car and the second two further away if you want it pay for it Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 It's also interesting to say 'cheapest i could find' as if price is the deciding factor, i wouldn't pick a kit from a litter i was less than 100% happy with, just cos it was five quid cheaper. I picked up a few kits this year for the first time in ages - the guy said i could have them for free (a member off here) but as they were such excellent kits and obviously a lot had gone into rearing and handling them i gave him some cash for them, just a fiver each, but it's just a token.

jonnytraff 8 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 for a working ferret id say thats cheap tbh all depends on what you want from it... Quote Link to post
lurcher2020 285 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) ive never had to buy a ferret up my way we just give them away or if sells them its about a fiver Edited August 22, 2010 by stubby watch text talk Quote Link to post
romany52 313 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 What's a rabbit worth ? £2 ? 13 rabbits you've made a profit. I've always believed ferrets are worth far more than you can sell 'em for. Quote Link to post
