Hunting & other rural pursuits

By the way a decent tom cat should make bits of a rat although in this senario I’d be shouting for the rat as cats are sick fooks.

So its back to the jaws trap idea again so and make sure to tie it down with wire, not rope. They’d only chew through that.

I fucking hate rats.

I was in hoian in Vietnam a few years ago for a few days, as you’d be going to the pub at night there would be fcuking huge rats running up and down the street beside you. Dirty cunts.

Our sheds at home used to get a fair few of them years ago but since we moved all the cattle feed to another shed they have eased off. Dirty cunts.

Biggest rat I ever saw was in some underground station in London, unnatural big, like a well fed cat and tame as fuck. A fine set of White teeth on the metrosexual cunt.

First day of the pheasant season on Monday. Dogs are fit, gun has been cleaned and polised. All set. Bang Bang.

There’s a good lot of pheasant around this year, you’d almost step on the hen pheasants walking the fields. Great to see.

I mentioned it in the Tonights TV thread but they were just discussing mink farms there on Ear to the Ground. They had Bernie Wright on the fat pig.

There’s some money in it. Over 7 million brought in by 5 farms in a year. They’re only glorified rats FFS.

Good shot of some dead and alive mink here. A few crusties set them free in Greece a few months back. Happily they expected most of the mink to die quickly. Looks like some of em got run over by some Greeks here.

Farming in France looks good going by tonights Ear to the Ground. Land prices around 1200/acre over there and the Dept sounds a better setup.

Some funny shit in here. That video with the jack russells killing the rats is superb

the grass is always greener ??

There was a great documentary on RTE over the Christmas, it was about a family from Fermanagh who sold up their farm and relocated to the USA and bought land over there and started from scratch…Very interesting, they just got sick of the quotta system here…The wife was actually born in the USA so that was a help, think it was actually a BBC production, they built some state of the the art farm, serious protestant work ethic about them

I saw that, unbelievable the amount of cows they had, well over 1000, and a shit load of Mexicans doing the work. I dont think there even was a quota out there. That’d be a serious change of scenery as opposed to moving to France and breeding a few Charolais cattle and goats. The goats alone were estimated to bring in €20,000 a year when they’re up and running.

no quota whatsoever, he was milking 24/7

The cows were housed nearly full time weren’t they? Freezing weather conditions in the winter then. A guy in Kerry or Cork I think was looking to build on e of these superfarms as well and all the locals opposed the idea and now none of them have a milking cow. He would have had to spend a fortune buying quota but he reckoned he’d produce enough milk to easily supply top creamery of all the milk they’d need.

Agreed, i could see myself relocating there to farm.

Yeah saw that as well, it was an excellent watch. They seem to be doing very well for themselves over there, couldn’t have been an easy decision for them to make.

Would you buy a few cattle out in France Dunph or what type of farming would you try out there? Id have to bring the Limousin cattle with me if I was heading out, we’ve spent too long building up a high quality herd to leave them behind.
