Raymond 618 Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Went out with the youngest son to catch a couple for the dinner. Bringing on a couple of pups this season. Starting grand, green as grass. Look forward to seeing how they come on over the few months. Done a bit of ferreting, a bit of bushing, a black bag of fat hen and redshank for the birds and home before the day turned into a summers day. Had a good and enjoyable couple of hours. young lad with his dinner Yes the burrows in there somewhere, listening for the ferrets bell to go quiet before I get the locator out. The pups Im bringing on as bushers and ferreting. The 2 russels should get a chance at some digging by the end of the season. There about 12 months now. 9 Quote Link to post
