Saluki Knight 0 Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 One of my two jills has passed on today, and so i shall be getting another. My question is, would it be ok to just put a young one straight in with the other, or do they have to be seporated for a while? Quote Link to post
PORK CHOP 13 Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 One of my two jills has passed on today, and so i shall be getting another. My question is, would it be ok to just put a young one straight in with the other, or do they have to be seporated for a while?the same happened to me a few months ago so i bought another kit put it in with my jill but unfortunately it didnt take to it i have looked up ways in which i can bring them both together and i have found that introducing them to each other slowly worked best but i guess it all just depends on your jill i think some mother the kits and some dont take to them i hope this helps atb pork chop Quote Link to post

Saluki Knight 0 Posted July 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Well, i got 2 new jills and locked my adualt jill in the hutch inside the court, and let the new 2 have the carry box as a bed box inside the court, I went to get adualt one out to take her for a jab, and found her cuddled up to the young two, so alls well that ends well, but how the hell did she get that hutch open, i dont know.

muddy 6 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Glad to hear it went well for you. Introducing new ferrets is always a lottery. Quote Link to post
Young Chud 1 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 when i put my new jill in with my current one they had a few little fights but they soon stopped as one took authority over the other Quote Link to post
The one 8,440 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Hopefully they will mother it and get on like a house on fire but if they dont try letting them see /smell each other threw the wire till they accept each other Quote Link to post
max abell 196 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Very rarely does a jill not take to a kitt or very young ferret but there are obviously the exceptions Just introduce them slowley and they should be fine They normaly try and mother it if anything good luck with em mate Quote Link to post
ferreting1888 7 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 well mate i done it 2 weeks ago and theve not had a fight yet. one of my jills is 1 year and the other is 4. the one at 1 year is mothering my kit hob and the other just lets him do what he wants there great together. my advice is put them together during the day and watch them for a bit and then you will no how they are going to be. also if the drag it by the scruff of the neck dont worry about it shes mothering it. hope this helps. cheers sean Quote Link to post
john-aas410 1 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I have struggled with getting kits this year. I was after 5 but the missus argued it down to three. We were let down by a few people and then thought we ahad three sussed but it didnt work out. We got two a couple of weeks ago and get another two tommorow, so Im just hoping they get on okay.
