coney hunter Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Most falconers use albino ferrets so the hawk doesn’t mix it up with a rabbit but it still happens. Coney Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coney Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 your right mate, ive always had polecat type ferrets, i just make sure mine are very used to ferrets.and i cant remember the last time i had any trouble. it does still occasionaly happen and its not always the ferret that comes off worse. do you fly hawks yourself?. post a piccie mate and i will see if i can find some.. regards Coney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sniper316 Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 (edited) I always feed my ferrets paunched whole rabbits or fully feathered woodies,feathers can be a pain but they keep the ferrets occupied.Can't get my ferrets to put weight on with dried food or cat food. p.s thats a snowball in the bottom,not an egg(my young son saw it and came running in to tell me the ferrets had laid an egg,haha) Edited February 21, 2005 by sniper316 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniper316 Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 My ferret "recreation centre".Its usually full of pipes and ropes and other stuff but its all manky with all the wet weather we've had so its all been removed for cleaning.
