Posted: 24 Sep 2003 Topic: Bringing wildlife back to farmland



We have recently purchased a piece of land (16 acres) the greater part of which we are allowing to go wild. It slopes gently to the SSE and is 300m above sea level in southern Deryshire. Notable spieces so far - Badgers, Hares, Toads and Skylarks. What other spieces of reptiles and Amphibians could we expect and how can we enhance the habitat/s for them?

Posted: 15 Oct 2004 Topic: Badgers



Being interested in finding out if any reptiles live on our patch, I have set about acquiring some refugia. I have realised that they are going to make great toys for our Badgers, it then occurred to me that I may be setting up a badger snack bar. Do badgers eat any reptiles?

ps I intend to ring fence an area to keep it Badger free (quick to say hard to do) :-)
