Does the hawk ever make a mistake if the ferret pops up instead of a rabbit?

Is that no how they use white ferrets over polecats ?

In the early days i fly them from the fist they soon learn that the ferret pushes the rabbits out for them and after a while will show no interest in the ferret they accept them as part of the team accidents can happen tho

I have posted another vid of my female taking a rabbit which the ferret had as well I slipped her then realised ferret was still attached to the rabbit

Very smart, I also didn't think they would be in as much brash as it was.

 

Whats the catch rate when working like that ?
