Ye I think your right one die earlier but it was very smell but the last two look very strong and the Jill’s feeding them and eating and drinking her self so fingers crossed good few days and hopefully we will be all good . -

Nothing and I can’t feel any kits inside and there’s no milk . so by now there should be something it’s day 46 I’m guessing it’s a false pregnancy . she’s still acting her normal self eating and drinking fine she not in a pain or doesn't seem to be in any discomfort so I’m jjust going to have to keep my eye on her. -

She looks like what’s drawn in the picture she’s at 44 days now I’m not to fussed about the litter now more concerned for her health but I can’t feel any kits and she’s not producing milk Iv had a few of litters in the past and all droped on exactly 41days if the was any issue by 44 days I should be able to tell but she’s act completely normal bar being abit nippy -

Hopefully but Iv had a feel of her stomach and can’t feel anything just feel fat/swollen and I can’t seen any milk in her tits. I’m starting to think she’s had a phantom pregnancy I only left her with hob for an hour mby 2 at the most I heard them rolling around but never saw them doing the deed -

Ye mate and I can’t seem to feel anything she just feels fat but he stomach looks low if that makes sense rather than her just being fat and and there doesn’t seem to be any milk in her tits just swollen nip -

She looks very close so hopefully it will be tonight or tomorrow morning. But your right it’s always some younger who’s never seen a ferret -
Iv got a jill that’s pregnant and she’s on 43/44 days now this is her 1st litter she’s not massive but her nips are big and she looks like she’s ready drop. she’s acting her normal self bar the occasional nip. for the last 4 years my other 2 Jill’s have all dropped on 42 days without fail. Iv spoke to a couple of people and they have told me not be concerned until 45 days but that seams long to me I’ll take her to the vets 1st thing but just wondering has anyone else had a long pregnancy

Spot on lads. My other jill just dosnt care she’s dieing to get away from her kits at any chance she can get ?
-
Ideal mate thanks . that’s what I thought was the case ?
-
Iv just bred my jill for the 1st time. normally she’s the softest nicest chilled ferret you’ve ever seen . but her kits are 3 weeks old now and she’s just Not the same ferret .normally loves being handled and played with but now she seams skittish and abit nervous and has started biteing. In my mind she’s just being protective of her kits and probably still abit hormonal etc. Is this normal ? I’m just worried that she’s going to be a bitch from now on ? she’s was always handled daily and has never shown any aggression before the kits ?
-
I’ll give ago it mate. he’s not old he’s only 2ish like the othe lads has mentioned iv given him some fish oil and Iv given him a egg yoke yesterday I’ll pop next door in abit and get a few pacs of cat food worth a go ?
-
Ye the jills are next door to him iv moved them further away just to separate them abit more
-
He’s dirty little stinker he’s a proper hob he just wants to kill and shag everything lol he’s getting lined tomorrow so hopefully he will settle abit
-
I will definitely be adding salmon bits to the diet. They eat well. there on all the game the dogs catch and what I or friends shoot plus organs heart/liver/etc beef mince Turkey mince iv never really thought of fish . the hob is eating like normal and still bouncing around like the usual knob head he is. It’s just his fur feels abit dry and looseing fur on his tail . Iv caught him rolling in his piss getting all excited with the jills in the next hutch so I imagine that will make his fur feel rough and dry too
-
He just had a nice bit of cod live oils so hopefully it should make a difference cheers mate ?
-
I was thinking that with his shedding his winter coat and in season etc cheers mate?
-
I’m looking for some advice. iv noticed lately my hobs fur has become dry and rough and his tail is loosing hair? Just wondering what I can do to sort him out.

My hob roscoe is the main man not that big bit smaller than a standard Jill he’s a pure ratting machine he’s never seen a live rabbit as there isn’t any good rabbit ferreting around me . He doesn’t eat the rats , if they don’t bolt he kills them in the hole drags them back out and goes back for more and I swear he finds the rats like a hound he just lives to work and has a pure hatred for rats he can be abit nippy but never locked he’s just abit wild ? when he’s working with the terrier it’s game over for any rat in the area ?
