I took a ferret from our local rescue as they really did'nt have anywhwere for her.She was painfully thin and covered in small black things,not fleas but they bit me to pieces whatever they were.Anyway,she has turned,fairly quickly,into a decent working jill,can't really fault her especially as it her first season.

The best advice i can give is go to a rescue thats been on the scene a while, lots of folks get a couple of ferrets & low & behold 3 weeks later there running a rescue, there was a list on here pinned but its been removed with a list of decent rescues

 

if you post what area your in i am sure someone will have a reccomendation of a decent rescue fairly close to you

I have two ferrets I rescued in October 08, the hob I had snipped this year, and the jill works like a little demon, I went through a few packs of plasters with her at first, but now you could'nt afford to buy her from me :D Give them a chance, if your as good as you say you are with ferrets, then it wont take you long to turn them around :thumbs:

It isn't always a good reason though mate...before I took him the albino in my sig was going to get bucketed because...he was albino. Some people. :blink: And most behavioural issues can be easily sorted with a bit of time and good treatment.

I nearly always rescue mine, as it has always worked out very well for me. Ironically, the last kit I actually 'picked' from a litter to bring on turned out to be the most useless worker I had ever clapped eyes on.:laugh: Just my luck.
