Hi mate, i've found that most ferrets vary ferret by ferret regardless of type. generally best hunting ones for me have been the little lively and curious ones irrespective of markings

Cheers

I rate them all the same as long as they have made the grade by there second season but ive a prefernce for lighter colours as i can see who's following rabbits out on a big burrow and i dont need to walk over the burrow picking them up . reckon the only colour i dont have is a polecat as i would have bother seeing them in the shadows of a hedge

Think most folk that dont have clear open burrows are heading towards lighter coloured ferret's as with this climate change the cover doesn,t die down and your limited to a few months ferreting in cover

Never found colour to make any difference where working ability is concerned.

 

Out of interest is there a colour you prefer ?

 

If I had to pick one colour to stick to it would be the sandie's, purely because they show up on any ground, I have two sandie's and two albino's, and three poleys, so I suppose I like them all really! :D
