Flying Ferrets 0 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I'm glad the prices are the way they are in Denmark. I don't know about hunting ferrets here in denmark if they are cheaper, maybe they are. Quote Link to post

rosspti 2 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Trust me! I am Cornish - and there is no way you could get away with selling ferrets down here for £100, unless to some rich townie who had moved here from London or something, and wanted a handbag-ferret like a trendy version of a chihuahua. Mind you, us Cornish could sell clothes-pegs to gypsies, and if we spotted someone looking to part with some cash - then I am sure our "pedigree, organic, free range, local Cornish ferrets" would be worth every penny of £100, infact that would probably be a steal!! especially as they would "open the door to a fantastic rural world of traditional, eco-friendly, green rabbit catching, with a low carbon footprint, and fantastic wild food thrown in!!". Seriously though, if you are a country boy like me, chances are you'll have plenty of mates with ferret kits to give away. Maybe they'll cost you a fiver, or a pint or two, or a couple dozen eggs. As most people breed from their Jills in order to keep them alive, there has never been a shortage of kits. Quote Link to post
will.f11 24 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 I agree and as a cornish lad myself I would never need to pay more than 20 quid Quote Link to post
andyfoster10 0 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 i would be happy paying £10-£20 each no more than that if your asking for more for a kitt its daylight robbery although supply and demand is an issue juring the season so its up to you if some bodys wanting to pay more you carnt argue really Quote Link to post
rick12345 181 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Went to see a local bloke today from the Cambridge Ferret Welfare and Rescue Society he quoted me 20 quid each. There was a bloke advertising in a local pets at home store free to a good home, with other people asking a fiver each. I took a litter of kits to the CFWRS years ago and had to pay 20 quid towards food for them, which i thought was fair enough. I still think 20 quid each is a bit steep. Quote Link to post
will.f11 24 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 dont have kits that cant be looked after Quote Link to post
