kurtrog70 6 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Me and my mate found an area of land local to us, which was riddled with holes and had an abundance of poop in and around the holes. We put the ferret in everyhole we come across to no avail. Are we doing anything wrong? is the ferret not pulling his weight? he is out of last years litter Thanks Kurt Quote Link to post

gnipper 6,543 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Most of the time round here the holes that are full of rabbit shit don't have rabbits in they must just play in them. There will be some other holes around that don't look as promising and will be holding rabbits. Quote Link to post

The one 8,511 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 They could be play holes ,they might be empty ,shit outside the holes count for nothing as youv'e found out .Your ferret might no be going deep enough as it young you will only know for sure if you have a marking dog Quote Link to post
