i would assume if the jill/s arnt in season then its a strong possibility .. just allow 6 weeks from now & see what happens ... hopefully they wont be & have yet come into season

forgot to mention the jill is very swollen at the back so shes in season but as i dont have any back ground on them if they have been kept together i dont know dont really understand it as there very healthy ferrets and very tame

Not really mate. If she's imminent though, she'll be going daft nesting. Bit early for that though, I would've thought?

 

I guess you must have reason to think they've been kept paired-up? If the hob's entire there's a chance he's had a go at her already (I reckon he's unlikely to have been vas'd if the wanker who owned them has just dumped them on you) If the jill's receptive, he'll be doing his nut in trying to get to her, & won't give her peace. Is the jill showing any signs of being ragged yet? If she's in full-season her ladybits will be very swollen & wet..............and if the hob's had a go you'll probably still see marks on the back of her neck, too.

Just read your last post. If she's showing signs of ragging, there's every chance the hob's been at her mate. If the back of her neck's really raw & wet-looking, there's every chance the hob's been at her.

 

Bloody decent of you to take them in, mate

if the swelling goes down in the next 10 days or so assume she is just pregnant.. then its 6 weeks... the swelling may go up & down slightly anyway .. but if it goes right down then its very possible she is

At least they have a decent home now. Yer if she stays swollen it aint been done yet, if she comes out of season pretty quick shes probs been mated and you cant tell until she starts to nest or looks fit to burst! Also does she have a marked neck?

 

Are the hobs balls out?

 

Jai.

thanks for the replys i aint really had a real luck just seen that there was 2 hobs and a jill and that the jill is very swollen will have a look tomorrow didnt have much of a chance as i was on way out when i found them there on the step

[Ideation 8,216]

Swollen where exactly?

[mickteesside 1]

Well that's a relief (so to speak?) Otherwise, they've been giving out ferret blow-jobs on the sly & you've been missing out on your pimp commision

Didn't really expect anyone to get the joke

 

If she's in season, where else would you expect her to be swollen?

[wullieh 53]

not the bes pic mate but can see a jill swollen at the back end to say she in season.
