marked hob

[jordy123 0]

Just after a few ideas for a problem i have with one of my hobs, he has a couple of nasty bite marks on the scruff of his neck which have scabbed over now but still look unpleasant, they are not bothering him at all still feeding well and still working well !!

 

He lives with 1 other hob (who is younger than him) and apart from the normal play fighting they live together fine, i have tried some antiseptic on it but not really clearing up, any clues as to treatment?? i am sure its just the young one ragging him about abit but would like to sort it out for him, cheers.

ones trying to be more dominant and as they are in season and if theres only two hobs and no jil hes trying his luck with the less dominant one

not so much a dominance thing, just getting there rocks off :icon_redface

teatree oil can be used, as well as nappy creams,

I think that one or both of your hobs are a little bi-sexual

Sign of the times, too much on tv thats the problem. Have they been watching dancing on ice?

sudocrem lined with vasaline so if the other ferret licks it it won't give it any inside problems. ATB jon

I had this problem a few weeks back as well. I found that a bit candle light, some lionel ritchie and some baby oil left in the hutch worked wonders. They seem to be "very" happy together now.
