what happens if jills aren't mated?


Recommended Posts

I've two five year old jills at the moment mate and never used any of the methods suggested, I had two litter sisters go to thirteen and fourteen were never mated or any of the methods suggested used.

This topic rears its head regurarly and it has been asked, has anyone actually lost a jill through leaving unmated or using one of the methods?.

13 and 14 yrs old, aye whatever.. laugh.gif

 

 

and your point is ?.

The internet can be a great thing, or not. People can talk to each other and tell of their experiences and this is how we can compare things and perhaps learn something. I've had ferrets since 1977,

Here we go again.Who are you to say his advice is dumb ass mate.I have kept ferrets untill 10yrs old and never mated.Yes the vets will tell you they need mating and the pricks that don't no any better

Tote i think your spot on its clear from what i have read on this thread that not all jills drop dead ... i do think its very different from the text book stuff that seems to be quoted a lot & tak

Mate your a fecking tosspot, you run a rescue and you think your the resident expert, that positions taken.

Just because you haven't experienced what I'm saying doesn't mean it's untrue.

i might run a rescue and have never once claimed to be an expert let alone a resident expert, there are some folk on this forum who do give good sound advice and i have no doubt they know as much as me about ferrets if not more, but then we have the folk like yourself that keep coming on giving people some dumb ass advice. mate stick to a gold fish and even then i doubt it last a week in your care.

nothing mate, as long as you keep there housing clean they will be fine.

 

 

You been living on another planet?

 

have you??? how many jills you lost through not taking them out of season??? how many people do you know that have ???? and what do you do when they come back into season after being with a v-hob??? mate them up again???

load of bollocks if you ask me mate. known ferrets reach double figures that have never been brought out, yet another money spinner for the vets if you ask me...................

To be fair the fellas ferrets could have made it that long without being mated - but that would be lucky (not impossible) and i just would not risk the health or happiness of my wee warrior weasels for the price of the jabs or keeping a vac hob.

I think you can only draw from your own experiences .. if you like i could drive a car from reading a book about how to do it.. but as i havent actually experienced driving one for real :laugh: :laugh: now thats a scarey thought :laugh:

 

A lot of us do just that relay to other people what we have experienced

Fair enough buddy - but i'll take science over your opinion. Nothing against you - i too have known ferrets live to an old age without being taken out, however i have also known ferrets die because they have not and i dont think it is a risk i would like to take with animals i am very attached to and expect to do a good hard seasons graft, and i also wouldnt offer my opinion as fact.
