How to be sure a Jill is pregnant???


Recommended Posts

Hi.

 

My young Jill came into season a few weeks back, I got a lend of a friends Hob & left them to it for a few days. This is my first time breeding Ferrets, what I am trying to find out is if theres anyway to determine if my Jill is pregnant? She was mated 3 weeks ago...I have noticed her pulling the fur off the rabbits I've been feeding her & she has started to eat the rabbits eyes which I dont remember her doing before she came into heat, over the past week I have noticed the swelling to her vulva getting less noticable, are these signs that a litter of Kitts can be expected in a few weeks, any advise would be appreciated.

 

Cheers

First thing is was she fully in season when you mated her & if so has the swollen vulva gone down now ?

I waited 2 weeks from when I first noticed the swelling before I got her mated...The swelling is mostly down now, maybe still slightly swollen.

In that case i would assume she is pregnant .. i didnt notice much difference weight & body shape wise untill about 4 weeks into the pregnancy
