WHEN TO STOP FERRETING

[woodchip 2]

When do i stop ferreting?

[Rabbithunter 456]

should have stopped by now, its pitch black out there

Depends on weather, young rabbits emerging ect.

 

When i start to get baby bunnys apearing on a regular basis and the weather is gone balmy, i stop, around March time or before.

 

But, this year it seems, things have gone a bit a wall , as young coneys, are popping up everywhere.

seasons are a changing. If your ferreting for sport, you would usually stop when you started bolting more young rabbits than old.

its very likely. but digging is par for the course with ferreting.

[Guest Frank]

If you feed him before you go out, he should be sound. As you have a locator, yiou can dig to him if he lies up.

 

See if you can get to go out with an experienced ferreter, who will show you the ropes aswell. :thumbs-up:

A dig holes he better have bolted some rabbits before then otherwise he may have to get used to a rural life
