JamesMoody3 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Hi all, there is a local I know with a fair amount of land which he says is overrun with plenty of rabbits, which he would like me to get rid of using ferrets. Only problem is I haven't owned or been ferreting since I was 9 or 10, and was wondering if any of you local lads (Hertfordshire, Buntingford area) off here with ferrets and experience would like to come with me midweek and give it a go, in return for teaching me along the way. I've been told that the rabbits can also be bolted to a shotgun in some areas, again, something I've not done before but would love to give a go. I've not been up to see the extent of the problem, but was hoping that if I get any takers it could be a reccy for the both of us, as I'd like to meet whoever I would be accompanying first so I don't just turn up on the day with a random and a car full of nets, ferrets and guns. Could possibly meet for a round of clays or something first (**** me this is beginning to sound like a dating ad), must be a decent person no idiots need bother messaging me. I must stress that this isn't an offering for you to descend on the land whenever you feel like, any dates must be arranged by myself, this has been made clear by the landowner. Cheers all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth Stalker Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Thanks for the endorsement BB Drop me a Pm James, although I think it might be a little late for ferretting now, we've had hundreds of rabbits this season but the past couple of weeks we've found a lot of young about, which makes for hard work!

JamesMoody3 Posted February 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Haha terry is a good man! A few people have told me it is a little late to work ferrets now, and that the ferrets stay underground and require digging out? I'm on my mobile, where abouts are you?

Wingman Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 You got ferrets now as well then James??? Nice one you'll have to let me know how you get on been thinking about it myself for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesMoody3 Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 No I haven't got ferrets myself, I'm after someone who has. I used to have ferrets when I was very young, and my neighbour at the time gave me about 30 purse nets. Must dig them out if I can find them at my mums house and give them away, no use to me!
