Ferreting is a dieing art, great to see there is still some lads at it. My uncle used to tell me about the guys that came over to the island I live on ferreting for the skins in the 60s and 70s. But after the ban on sales of fur in the UK it killed the ferreting and mole trade
Ya 100% it is dieing out. And the rabbits have taken over places around here.. it needs to go back to how it used be. Appreciate the comment and glad you like the video👍👍
This video was absolutely hilarious!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 You guys acted like kids in a candy shop and were having the time of your lives!! Lol I'm so jealous bc that was like playing real life Wack-A-Mole and that game was freakin awesome when I was a kid and you guys got to play and i didnt!!! 😂😂 But it was fun to watch! Thanks for sharing Glen!! 😊😊
There you ferret was the answer Glyn! Lovely to see these country skills still going on. And your father is priceless!! Funny but don’t know it at all🤣🤣 great video👌
Hi Glyn , great video of Ned the Ferret helping reduce the number of Rabbits in your area. The beginning of the video with your dad and the Ferret was very funny. Glad that you had a successful day with the Rabbit hunt. I'm sure catching the Rabbits felt really good for you after spraining your Ankle awhile back on the Rabbit hole. Great way to end the video with your dad holding the Ferret in one hand and a Rabbit in the other.
Great video very funny watching the craic going on your dad is a comedian and he doesn't realise it pity it wasn't on a bit longer really enjoy watching yea
Best laugh 😂 I used to love ferreting, had one that was always biting me so bred some and raised one from a baby….he was hide and seek champion 🙈😂 This would make a hysterical video, get those boys to put you on a real good spot and you, ya dad go with them, I can imagine the crack when they start bolting out thick and fast 🤣🤣
@@sheepshepherd Yes I used to do ferreting for rabbits regularly . I don't have any nowadays it was getting difficult to get people to look after them if we we went away on our holidays unfortunately . We live in Scotland. Ps keep up the content on your channel love the variety 👌 .
I remember when I was about 13 I went to visit a friend who lived in the countryside and here dad took us rabbiting with ferrets.... it was really exciting and we had rabbit for dinner. I never knew that this was a thing... I remember we had to go back the next day to catch a ferret that decided it didn't want to come out. Apparently it was probably having baby rabbits for dinner. I did not find any of it traumatising, in fact it gave me respect for the job of farmers and land owners keeping pests under control. Im in Australia and the rabbits have a devastating impact on our land.
Appreciate the comment and glad you like the video👍👍 We had mighty day at it. Great fun. But yes they are a pain. All the field has been destroyed by them
That was so good to see the ferrting Glyn you're father with the ferrite at the start was hilarious 😂😂 i had a ferret a few years ago very same colour as ned he was Freddy I miss doing a bit of ferrting it was always a great crack with a few mates best way ever to keep rabbit numbers down Really enjoyed the video as always looking forward to the next one
I think at the end, when Ned didn't come out for awhile, he was convinced by the rabbits to just relax and play some poker, and drink some beer, instead of being enemies!
Glyn a great wee video of the old art of ferreting. And no blood spilt. Some people would never have seen the likes. There still a few people up here in Antrim keeping up the art. I have a few sheep too. Pedigree Suffolks. You don't need many of them to be busy😂. Like the ture reality of your videos. Keep it up Ta Rab.
Bonsieur Monsieur and welcome back Sir .. lovely captured and as always beautiful sharing adventure documentary updated resume countryside content video .. keep it up Sir and your beautiful bonded you and your Dad is a big fat boom .. loved the beautiful captured and a million thanks again for sharing your beautiful sharing adventure documentary content video .. TQSM Sir
Hi Glan I met you yesterday evening at kenmare agri business opening day. you are so funny 😂Glan exactly when you got a bad grip and said o shit these are funking heavy 😂 And my dad Patrick osullivan will not let me buy one of your puppies
Your ankle was almost broken because of rabbit holes. Rabbits are food. Good food. Even in America, there are meat rabbit farms. Your living of lambs harmed by , many rabbit holes, will be less now. Baked Rabbit, Rabbit stew with rabbit GRAVY will be delicious. Glad for your Ferret. Ferrets can even be pets, not for me, it maybe for you and your family.
Well let’s hope the rabbits have not been getting lessons from the homing pigeons. Tell dad those wessels are domestically bred polecats. Just after the war, we used to find the odd rabbit bone in the ‘chicken’ we were given, mind you that was much better than old tough cow beef.
If you had 1 or two more ferrets you would have caught LOADS of RABBITS omg ned is class but most people kill them and through them out to the foxes 🦊 or the magpies😊😊
The nets catch 8 rabbits, the ferret scares the rabbits into the nets. If the ferret catches a rabbit, it eats the rabbit and goes to sleep down the hole, so if you want your ferret back, you gotta dig em up outta the rabbit hole. Ferrets are good at scarring rabbits into the nets.
That was brilliant, your father was hilarious with the ferret!
😅😅 we had a great laugh at it. Appreciate the comment and glad you like the video👍👍
I love you dad hes stone mad.his so funny your dad.
Stone mad is right😂😂👍
That was great craic Glyn, your father trying to hold the ferret in in the kitchen was gas!
Well done Ned,fair play to ye lads moving the rabbit's to a new home and no rabbits were harmed on the process ,top lads👍

Thanks so much again.Appreciate the comment and glad you like the video👍👍
It's amazing how destructive rabbit warrens can be. The native rabbits in the USA don't dig, so it is interesting.
Nice one Glyn
Will the rabbits not just make their way back?
I very much doubt it.
@@sheepshepherdyour wrong they be back you were better if had rabbit for the dinner for few days
@user-bf6lz4bs6j by god they wont be back here anyway, unless they get s train
Counted 63 rabbits I'm field beside our house one evening
Omg that is crazy amount of them. They will destroy the field
@sheepshepherd yeah plenty green fields our cat does well bunny on mouth every day
Hi Glan I met you yesterday evening at kenmare agri business opening day. you are so funny 😂Glan exactly when you got a bad grip and said o shit these are funking heavy 😂
And my dad Patrick osullivan will not let me buy one of your puppies
Lovely to meet you padraig, they were very heavy😅😅 the pups are all sold, appreciate the comment 👍👍
The pups were treated very good
And now they have another great home
Your ankle was almost broken because of rabbit holes. Rabbits are food. Good food. Even in America, there are meat rabbit farms.
Your living of lambs harmed by
, many rabbit holes, will be less now.
Baked Rabbit, Rabbit stew with rabbit GRAVY will be delicious. Glad for your Ferret. Ferrets can even be pets, not for me, it maybe for you and your family.
100 % agree. They have to be dealt with.
Appreciate the comment again. Keep them coming👍👍
Well let’s hope the rabbits have not been getting lessons from the homing pigeons. Tell dad those wessels are domestically bred polecats. Just after the war, we used to find the odd rabbit bone in the ‘chicken’ we were given, mind you that was much better than old tough cow beef.
In the chicken,😅😅 thats gas.
Appreciate the comment and glad you like the video👍👍
We had mighty day at it. Great fun
Fierce craic😅😅
Some craic we had alright😅👍👍
Great hunting! Question from the States, you are re homing the rabbits, why not eat them?
We dont eat rabbit here..
Bet those rabbits will be back in a week.
Unless they get a train. They wont be back here anyway that's for sure
If you had 1 or two more ferrets you would have caught LOADS of RABBITS omg ned is class but most people kill them and through them out to the foxes 🦊 or the magpies😊😊
The nets catch 8 rabbits,
the ferret scares the rabbits into the nets.
If the ferret catches a rabbit,
it eats the rabbit and goes to sleep down the hole, so if you want your ferret back, you gotta dig em up outta the rabbit hole.
Ferrets are good at scarring rabbits into the nets.
O ya relocate 😉😉😉😉🤣🤣🤣🤣
😅😅😅
Dislocate maybe 😂
The rabbits like good clay ground not right putting them into a forest ,in donegal we give them the freedom of the land
There vermin,, by god they wont be getting it here, they gave enough of damage done
Lol 😂😂😂
How far away is the forestry your relocating them at??
About 3 miles.
Far enugh suppose , be at it meself to gud craic
I knew the ferrets would be a hit there great for the rabbits
Ya youre right. Appreciate the comment and glad you like the video👍👍
We had mighty day at it. Great fun
Is that so someone else can have the pleasure of the rabbits
Haha exactly 😂😂
Ya would want to fill the holes or the feckers will be back
There still is plenty of them left there.. must be 20 at least left
Why arent you eating them?
What ,you don't eat the rabbits ?
😂 who said we didn't
@@sheepshepherd, lol 😆
As rough as by -Jesus !! Good craic
😅😅
