Ferrets saved the day

Warning - Hunting video & a little bit of swearing.
Cold and wet made it very hard going for the hawks and rabbits just refusing to bolt so the ferrets took over and gave us the most awkward dig ever #birdsofprey #falconry #rabbit #hunting #ferret #ferreting #harrishawk #predator #natural

How muc does it cost to feed a harris hawk monthly not hate just wondering your video is a good watch

[@riversidefalconryandbushcraft]

Thanks mate. The main diet is chick, quail, rat and rabbit. The rabbit we catch goes back in to feed for the hawks so that’s free. Chics can be expensive depending on where you go but I buy in bulk so it’s much cheaper. Quail at the minute is expensive though
