stubby 175 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 well thets get back to the ferreting today well we done the first set it was about 26 holer look like there be rabbits in it . i put my 2 jills down but after about 45-60 minits nothink bolted Good to see you are getting out again. I still say that on a 26 holer you are going to need more then two ferrets. What part of the country are you in? im from essex mate ... yer i might get a couple of more ferrets im not that sure but the other day on about 36 holer about 6 rabbits bolted with only oner ferret down but what you need to ask yourself, is how many were in there, that didnt bolt, on large warrens, theres lots of hiding places for rabbits, some will bolt, but if they hear comotion up top, voices etc some will sit tight, and having only 2 ferts down, allows them to do just that, but thats not to say, you need more ferrets, just make sure the people you go out with have ferrets too, that way, you all put your ferts down, 4 or 6 that gets bunnies in a panic, plus it means you havent got the outlay for more than two collars, and you all look out for each others ferts Quote Link to post
