darrren 414 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 ok so over christmas while i was home on leave i got 2 ferrets,kitted them out wiuth everything they need,and my mum and dad has been taking care of them for me while ive been away. Today at about 12oclock me and my mate went to a location and his little terrier marked a hole. (i sent my ferret down a few holes locally over xmas but nothing around due to mixy). About 2 minutes after sending the ferret down BANG we had one in the net,i didnt realise how exciting it all was lol.withing the 1.30-2 hour session we had 5 bunnies,which would of been six but the rabbit fell out of the net when i went to grab it,but 5 is great for the first result.heres a picture! ferreting_resized_2.bmp Quote Link to post

Magpie 102 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 That's great pal. It's really infectious stuff. The more you do the better you and your ferrets will get and you never know you might want to get yourself a lurcher in the future to accompany you. All the best pal and happy hunting.

COMPO 54 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 (edited) Personally when i feed my ferrets a whole rabbit....it is exactly that whole including all the guts, the ferrets get all their vitamins and minerals from the insides, so they will eat part of the stomach and the partially digested greens etc....as well as the heart and kidneys, lungs,heart etc....and then top up with meat and bone. I have 5 ferrets and a whole rabbit this time of year lasts them 2 days, during the summer obviously it would go off after 12 hours Edited to add good going Darren!
