OneManAndHisDog 513 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Went out on Saturday morning out for 7 got there for about half 7 got the 2 ferret my Jill and my hob also the lurcher. Qwick walk to the first warren that was only about 8 holes, netted it up put the hob and Jill in a different ends about 2-3 minutes the hob bolted one out, one in the bag, took him out and not seen the Jill for a good 10 minutes located her a about 2 half foot, got about 2 foot in and she came out with out her coller on great had to find that, got it then moved on to the next set about 5 minutes after putting them in the Jill bolted one after that they both came out so moved on to a small set that the dog marked I told my dad to go and put the Jill in it while I take the nets of the previous set so he did he was there about 5 minute till I came over then the locator said 2 foot so I started digging then one bolted of of a hole but the net was folded over the top!? Apparently it was my folt somehow? But he put the ferret in so? Then moved on to another bit of permission that we've got in some horse fields did a big set but we can't do the other side of the fens Which it goes under. Put the ferrets in 30 seconds in to it one bolted in the net then another one drone under the tree then 2 minutes went past and 2 bolted from the other side of the fens! Desided to get of home 4 will do. Then my dads mate asked if he would be able to come out with us so went out yesterday we thought that it would be easy because they were bolting easily the day before so went out with my Jill and the dog and he drought his dog and his 2 Jill's so the dog marked a bank that we thought that it was separate sets no it was all one big one. The ferrets were down for 10 minutes so tryed to locate it and couldn't get a good mark the rabbits was giving them the run abouts wasn't bolting at all so waited for about half hour then got them all out on are way to the next set his dog marked a set with 3-4 holes so we thought we would do it we shouldn't have done it we ended up having to dig 7 foot was there for hour digging then I had to go down while my dad and his mate held my feet got the rabbit and the ferret and walking back dog marked another set and another 7 foot dig great same again dangling down to get then it would be alright if I wasn't 5 foot 9, after that we were just happy with to don't ever want to do a 7 foot dig again!!!
