chartpolski 23,068 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 HI JUST WONDERING DOES ANYONE ON HERE HAVE THIS CROSS,AND ARE THEY GOOD FOR RABBITS FERRITING,AND ON THE LAMP,WOULD THEY HAVE MORE SPEED THAN THE FIRST CROSS,IF ANY COULD GET PICTURE UP IT WOULD BE GREAT THANKS Just to answer your questions in order; yes, they should be good for rabbits and ferreting; yes, they could be ok on the lamp for rabbits; and I would say a 3/4 should definatly be faster than a 1st cross ! Personaly, I would rather go for a Beddy/Grey as an allrounder than a Beddy/Whippet, as I find them to small to be good allrounders, but many people will disagree with me on that one !! Cheers.

Yer i agree the few people who i no who have beddyxwhipps always seem to say they wish it had a bit of gry init, plus a fistx beddy gry aint going to be much bigger than 23tts Quote Link to post
brunty29cdo 5 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 this is my 3/4 whippet 1/4 beddy,hes just gone 7 months old and 20" tts.he may have another inch or 2 but not really bothered as im more than happy with him so far. hes only going to be used for rabbits and is coming along brilliantly. if its rabbits you want it for than you wont go far wrong had a beddy/grey when i was a kid(well my dad did) he was also a good dog and made 23" tts Quote Link to post

lloyd-holmes 15 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 two of my friends have got beddy crosses , one is a beddy/whippet/grey and the other is a beddy/grey , they are both cracking dogs that will go at anything day or night and i wouldnt be able to pick one over the other workwise but for my personal preference with a bit of hight id have to go for the beddy/grey 1 Quote Link to post
chartpolski 23,068 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I will be only using it on rabbits,I only hunt rabbits,what size do they make in around 23 I'd say a Beddy/Grey 1st x would go about 23/ 24"; a Beddy/Whippet 1st x would go about 17" to 20", of course, all the Beddy/Whippet owners will give me shit over this, but it is true !! Forget Beddy/Whippet 1st cross if you want a real "allrounder" !! Cheers. Quote Link to post
