Hi all,
I've been reading the past few mails of this list and Im very impressed with
the high standard of Ferret know-how. But it seems that most of the readers
are American and you have Ferrets as pets. I myself live in the UK and use
my 3 fellows as workers. ie, send them into warrens after rabbits. Does
anyone else use there Ferrets like this?
My 3 are very friendly. Billy, the oldest, has a very laid back approach to
everything. Whilst my other 2, Snowball and noname, are very quick and
alert. They were two out of a litter of twelve my jill(s) dropped last
spring.
I have them housed in a big, solid rabbit type hutch in the back garden.
Its warm, dry and they get well looked after. Living near farms I get all
the straw and wood chipping I need. And anytime I need too I can get a baby
pig (still born) for there dinner. Mind you it takes them two days to eat
it... :)
Well there ya go a quick look at a British Ferrets working life.
