SAFS days mate southern athletic ferret society. were will it stop , the skys the limit. ;D ;D , i took him out yesyerday with no nets just to watch him work, excersize him and see if there were any rabbits in the warren i found, he worked hard and flushed a few rabbits out. i will take him back over the weekend and have couple of rabbits hopefully. great afternoon out and very educational.will get lexi used to ferrets so she can come to.

That's funny as fook!!! You know, he will have to be in the unders cat!!!
That will be great getting Lexi used to working with Frank. I'm sure they will make a great team together.

good on you matt,get out there and give them hell.don't feed him to much an once or two on a ferret is like a pound or two on a dog,try and keep him keen and on his toe's. lee i'll give you a call over the wk/end, mate want's a harness buddy.

I just got a book out of the library i was so interested in this, i will post more tomorrow after ive finished reading it. But i think id quite like one. I have found out though that pure ferrets do come in polecat colour (books exact words) so the one me and lee saw could have been a ferret. Will all ferrets work ? or do i have to get a special welsh bull one ?

Post by martinl on Mar 5, 2009 18:54:44 GMT
