bouncer 51 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 my friend has a hob ferret which he kept with his old jill for a while,he then put a rabbit in with them for food and the hob turned on her and had her by the throat shaking her.so he parted them off the hob was not hobbing at the time, the jill was not in season either.he tried them back together yesterday without any food in there and he done the same again can anyone give a reason for this thanks.

bail 0 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 I dont know why but would be interested what other people think. I got 2 young hobs last summer they were out the same litter. Were fine together till the week before christmas then they started fighting. Had to split them up. Quote Link to post

Reguardless if same litter that dont mean they will not fight when there balls drop, yes some brothers will get on but most dont, if you were to get there nuts cut off within a week they would be able to go back together again. Not sure about the one with the jill but could it be he is also just being a horney boy or is it a case of him being pure nasty, What is he like with other jills? Mind hobs come in to season long before the jills. Quote Link to post
