Ferret will work the same, you'll just get soaked..................good luck!

Its not the best weather in the rain not many rabbits will bolt but go out and see how you get on and let us know how you got on

Wind is more of a problem, often slows bolts as they can't hear/smell outside. . . . but they still come out eventually.

[Lab 10,979]

Of course they do......choosing between getting wet or a ferret hanging of your arse is not much of a choice for them....

[rob190364 2,594]

just leave a few little brollies near to each exit so they can grab one as they run past

 

seriously though, I've never found either wind or rain to be a problem, the only problem I've found with wind is the ball ache of it blowing the nets about sometimes but even that's not that bigger deal.

 

If anything I prefer ferreting in the rain because there's less people about to mither you.

Wait until Sunday and I'll hold a brolly for you so you don't get wet.

Thanks,fooked off after your reply lab,that was some rain!

 

Thats me just back,all my luck ran out today lol..lost 3 and got one young yin,normaly its the other way about as the young yins get through the net.still a decent few hours out,cant win all the time

Normally you say wait till its frosty ,but you would never get out you have to take the good with the bad get out there and try it .

They bolt when its windy and raining

it's said there are no stupid questions only stupid answers,you got out and had some ferreting,fair play,you learn best by doing most of the time,i would go rain or shine(and everything inbetween!)

[B.P.R 2,798]

Stick to some high ground and you should be sound, never seen rabbits sitting out in the rain for fear of drowning, only draw back is the amount of mud you take home if you have a nice dig, but they say its good for your skin, good luck
