whippeter69 88 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Went out this morning ferreting with 15 nets one ferret and my whippet and terrier. It was the whippets first time ferreting and the first warren the terrier marked i didnt put any nets down as i wanted the whippet to have a run with the terrier and just get used to ferreting. well 5 minutes later one bolted and it was off, the terrier mist is by an inch and the chase was on and the rabbit got the another hole before they could catch it . Second warren i put nets down and one bolted into a net and the terrier held it safely til i got there and put it into my bag, second one the ferret had hold of it and it came to the entrance of the hole nd i quickly grabbed it and the ferret grabbed me by the finger and was not happy, so i called it a day and the whippet was very well behaved and the terrier too. Heres a pic of the end of the day Quote Link to post

whippeter69 88 Posted December 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Stick at it wee man they all add up . Definitely, well last night i took the air rifle and my mate took his lurcher and his pup and they were running a rabbit and it turned them and was making its was across the field and i have the air rifle and aimed along the barrel following the rabbit and as soon as it was a safe shot i pulled the trigger and the rabbit that was running half harted rolled over and to our amazement it was stone dead, honestly it was like some one shot it with a shotgun it was the best shot i have ever done with and airgun, it was about a 15 yard shot but was well happy with it Quote Link to post

COMPO 54 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 good do lad! One of my ferrets nipped the end of my finger yesterday .......i had just pulled a rabbit out from under its nose and they dont have good eyesight so its to be expected sometimes when they think its a bunny!
