Drop me a pm when you have decided what you want to do with them. Thanks I reckon just box them up and courier them to you. Then you can decide where they are going. I'm guessing you can access the original listing of all the titles and authors. If that's the case let me know which ones are of interest. Anything else I can take down St. Giles. Jok.

toolebox 1,546 Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) A ferret can NEVER have too much air flow ,they over heat and can cook in a few minutes very much the same as a dog in a poorly ventilated box .I'd much rather have too much air flow than not enough as the ferret has its very own coat in the form of fur to help keep it warm .

That's what I use & even go one step further ...I use a all wire cage during the heat summer,its in play now ,filled with plenty of straw so the ferrets can burrow down to keep out of the wind as it just sits on my flat deck behind the dog boxes. Yes atm new Zealand has in parts ALOT of rabbits in fact Id say populations are at a 20 year high.In the dryer areas of central otago its not uncommon to see several hundred rabbits feeding in the fields as dusk sets in .Its a huge problem ,we don't have seasons ,we don't have limits ,the hubble rabbit is regarded as a super pest 1 Quote Link to post
Aussie Whip 4,101 Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Good idea,your one lucky bloke,here atm rabbits are only in small pockets in the central tablelnds nsw.Everyone hunts pigs here apart frpm a handful of die hard ferreters and there running dogs.Rabbit populations have been decimated by myxi and other viruses.Unlike pig doggers its easy to get permission here to ferret but just no numbers.Years ago we used to get 300 odd for a weekend now lucky to get 30.

Try telling the ferret that when the box is on the floor and the air temp is 2c with a wind chill of -5 and they got that ice cold wind blasting through the front of the box. The box design that jok has pics of is good for Summer ferreting. But no good for winter ferreting. I would say it has it's uses to the payed pest controller who is out in the summer. 2 Quote Link to post

Arry 21,931 Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Its all horses for courses our winters can be cold wet and windy, i try and keep them dry and warm. So just a few holes is fine for mine. But for you guys in warmer climates its the opposite, so each to are own and customise are boxes to suit. Atb Cheers Arry 1 Quote Link to post
