FightTheBan 1,147 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Couple of boys local to me got half a dozen hounds when the local hunt packed up. Think the lasted 4 or 5 months and were out hunting once before they were all done with the .22 lol Its not something you can do halfheartedly. FTB Quote Link to post
terrier410 53 Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 i hunt my own pack of 5 beagles and only hunt small cover most farmers down my way are sound so theres no bother there you realy would to be takeing beagles out twice a week as for feeding they dont stop eating mine gets 1 big feed every second day no good feeding every day i think and no matter what you do these dogs always smell bad i clean mine out twice a day atb buster100 sorry to ask buster but what do you gain by feeding your hounds every other day.? mine get dry every day plus all the scraps and the wife gives them a touch on a morning they are'nt going out as well. i know we all have different reasons to do what we do but i think the keep em mean feeding is more likely to make them pick up shite in the field.? i am not questioning your methods i just don't see it myself. i remember a lad up the alley telling me he missed a days feeding every now and then because a bloke in the pub told him it would be good for his pet terrier ffs i soon put him straight.atb t410 (i am not judging) and as for smell,my hounds fckn stink but its a smell we all know and love its in our clothes and in our hair (not that i have any hair) .

Is there any strains of Beagle that carry a Rough coat,like a Welsh Hound? not without crossing them.tough little fckrs beagles i'm in n wales and the past couple of years we've had -16 but not phased them in any way when out or in the kennels and they will push through the tightest cover on a scent thick skinned hounds are comes from hundreds of years being outside don't think their coat could get better.can't see any benefit in crossing different sized hounds use one or the other cos there is no way the size of the crossed litter can be forseen.atb t410 Quote Link to post
