cjw 1 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 hi all need a bit of advice please. my 2yr old jill is always having a go at my 2 kitts ( 6 month old jills ) i,ve seperated them once and all well even when they out together she dosent touch them but as soon as i put them in the same hutch after 5 mins all hell breaks loose. so do i keep the 2 yr old on her own or do i leave them to it to sort it out them selves. by the way the hutch is 8 foot long 2 foot wide 4 foot high so theres plenty of room for them all. thanks cjw keep hunting Quote Link to post

ferreter.al 22 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 whenever swap my ferrets about theres always a bit of a ruck,just leave them to get on with it,usually sort it within an hour or less usually,never had one get hurt yet so i would probably give it another try mate but dont take my word for it,just my opinion.atvb sorting them out.

max abell 196 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 We had the same prob this year with 2 jill kitts we introduced to our court All the jills were fine with the kitts exept one of our old girls shes 9 and kept giving the 2 kitts a hard time eventualy we took the old girl out for about a week and then put her back and although they had a couple of little squabbles they are now all work feed and sleep together fine I think its a pecking order thing and little squabbles always sound worse than they actually are keep trying them mate a bit at a time they should eventualy accept each other but keep a close eye on them GOOD LUCK WITH IT Quote Link to post
