T78 4 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 took the ferret i bought the other day out today for an hour to see how it worked... first bury,netted up,put it in and nothing..............15 mins later we decided to enter my mates hob,bolted a rabbit within 1 min! started to worry a bit. my jill came out just after with fur in her claws... didnt use her again til last bury, bolted a rabbit within 2 mins and another 30 secs after that and came straight back out. so all in all,pleased with her.think the first set,she had one backed up and the hob maybe managed somehow to get it moving because she managed the last bury brilliantly on her own.

T78 4 Posted January 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 it was good to get out,not a bad day when it wasn't raining! not the biggest bag in the world but i know she's a decent worker at least now! Quote Link to post
pigeonphill 69 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 sounds like you got yourself a proven worker there do u know how old it is and did the person u get it of work it before. lucky to get hold of a ferret this time of year Quote Link to post
T78 4 Posted January 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 got it off a lad on here who was thinning out his ferrets to enable him to concentrate more on dogs. not sure how old it is but it was the mother to two more(full grown) jills he had,think its a yr or two old. nice calm steady ferret!
