And I have a nephew about your age MattyP who at about 10 had a poster of Elle McPherson stuck on the ceiling above his bed, ever hopeful that it would come unstuck and fall on him.
Haha, or was it just for target practice!?!?
Attachment 19698Attachment 19699Attachment 19700 Decided to throw the traps out in the neighbors pine and blue gum plantation and caught a couple of possums to add to the fur collection anyone no the prices of fur ATM :thumbsup:
Dundee will. About $120 for hand plucked at a guess.
My MIL has invited me over to their spot to eliminate some magpies. Time to put that box of No.4 that's been sitting in my safe to good use but knowing my luck I'll rock up and they won't be anywhere to be seen...
Wonder trapper the price of hand plucked fur is now $100 and the buyers aren't taking skins over summer.
i just pluck them anyway but cheers dundee

10 or so bunnys and a couple of magpies, only kept one bunny cos most of em looked like this.

That is how the black pests in this country should look VC:cool:
not good for filling the slow cooker tho
What is with all of these black bunnies you fellah's get? I have never seen one except as a pet in a hutch and I am guessing you weren't shooting pets.Quote:

Only ever shot one ginger one out of hundreds and hundreds,yet they are fairly common in other areas.
Saw three almost fully grown kittens on the side of the road on the way home,at least 10km from any house.
I pulled over and thought about getting the rifle out of the boot but the wife wasn't happy and I didn't want to be standing there with a rifle on the side of the road so they live unfortunately.
Yeh wives are funny like that. I was driving home last night with my brother in law in the back when there was a possum in the headlights. My BIL said get that bastard so I lined it up in the centre of the bonnet only to be given the don't you dare with me in the car from my missus in the front seat. The possum lives this morning.Quote:
