  1. @Conor O'Gorman Maybe BASC can help at grass roots level
  2. Hi 30-06 I have seen all sort of reaction when a fox is hit Rolls over Jumps up Drops and then stands Usually when hit - yet tail up but not always If your mate is using thermal or NV and the fox has no idea about where the bang came from its possible it has come back I have had that happen a few times - usually where i shoot one of a pair and the other goes into cover and then comes out later
  3. Sorry mate - dig not make it clear I had the Dam No the Dog never sired a litter before or after The dog i used had not either but he walked into the garden and that was it - sorted Sorry i have just re read your post and you have the dog that has sired before - that is most odd and apologies i have not heard of that
  4. Yes we had it before with one of our cockers He simply could not do it Day later another dog and sorted
  5. At the moment i believe many members of the public - maybe not aligned with shooting - accept the need to control pest species I wonder if they were put on the list as a quarry if many would then think it was just something else to shoot as so many term it ?
  6. Yes - im pretty lucky as i have access to that I just found it interesting how far your money can go - a bit like a few decades ago buying an estate in Scotland was a seriously shrewd move
  7. Thank you Without being rude - or too nosey - any idea on true cost - as LB says - would also love a few hundred acres
  8. Top post Lloyd Its like the badgers lovers - most have never even seen one !
  9. Brilliant news ! In all seriousness though i had no idea of the value of mudflats in pounds -cheap aernt they really
  10. May have said it elsewhere but thermal on a shotgun at night is super effective
  11. Brilliant and great fun ! Nice one !
  12. Not sure of a pen The duck tubes work very well and dont take much building We have circa 25 up and circa 20 were used last year On our big pond we had over 100 ducklings The key in my opinion to success is vermin control - and just as important supplementary food for them when they hatch The weather always seems messed up these last few years and the insects are not about so we feed a bucket full of meal worms for a few weeks I have seen some coral duckilings together and other mothers be very protective and attack others - so a pen may cause major issues
  13. So sorry for you loss Crossy May he rest in peace and prayers for the family
  14. Same with us - getting on for now 50 / 50 - lady beaters and men The ladies really like working their dogs I dont see the need for a big campaign from BASC to be honest If they do - why not make BASC free for ladies for their first year of membership ?
  15. Just cant understand why solar is simply not on the roofs of all the new mega factories - warehouses etc etc Have them in the fields near us and its a bio desert
  16. Woken up this morning by the sound of spring and the pigeons cooing I know they do in winter sometimes - but a good dozen at it this morning
  17. Indeed - Hhahah Me neither but scaremongering is not good We roost shoot to protect crops - Simple really
  18. You are making an issue out of nothing at all
  19. Thats a shame - sounds like a good day to be had I wonder if most people are already out with it being the last Saturday in the season
  20. Frightening really Thanks for posting Rewulf
  21. I think thats the issue now - so many dont integrate - They dictate
  22. @Teal @welsh1 Please could you close this thread Thank you
