RIP.JD 21 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 As above really, I went out with a pal today and picked his double d&d ferret box up and it weighed less than half my home made box.. D&d seem to have stopped making boxes.. Where else sells good lighter boxes.. Cheers Quote Link to post

RIP.JD 21 Posted February 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Joe1888 I've had a look on the web site and there are no prices or contact details, unless it's just my iPhone that doesn't work on the site... Have you any ideas re price.. The suggestion made by Terryd doesn't have a bow back which I would prefer.. The other ones on EBay look ok, but nothing stands out... Regards Quote Link to post
