price of ferrets in your area

[CarraghsGem 92]

the price of ferrets varies a lot here in ireland, in the west where i am they ask crazy money for ferrets

with 20-25euro for kits being the norm, workers sell for 40-50euro,

some people are even trying to incease the price on kits to 30euro which is why i source my ferrets in northern ireland where i can get kits for 5-10stg + adults for 10-15stg

what area (north/south/east/west) do u live (uk/ireland/further afield) + what price are ferrets in your area in general???

 

it would be interesting to find out.

the ones round me are up to 20 quid mine was a fiver

[jenksi87 3]

normally £10 round my way, my spare's were going for £5 but due to the mother dying the added expense of having to hand rear the kits - bottle, teats, whelpi, single cream plus there mince, plus the fact that there soft as shit and get handled for at least 3hours everyday, i'm going to let mine go for £10, but friends are having theres for free. theres only 3 left to sell so i think the £30 i will get for them is fair as it barely covers my expenses.

even kits from non workers that havent been handled a lot so still nip manage to go for £10 all day long !

[Tiny 7 1,694]

There normal around a £10 round me,

 

But this year they are going for silly money £30/40 plus, But i dont think theres are ''working'' ferrets i think there more pet owners types...

 

Dont think iv payed for a ferret in about 5+ years tho....

this is my first litter in 3yrs, only breed when i need some young uns kept this line for years good solid workers most go to mates for free and if i have any left then there advertised free to good homes, to many people nowadays colour orientated asking daft money

[ferretertom 7]

Depends on the colour realy a friend of mine paid £3 for a white jill and sold the thing for £60!

Theres far to many being bred to make serious money but on advarage there between £15-£30 here.

I have just seen some in the local free paper european polcat cross £12.50 a piece and my mates just gave ten polecat coulerd kits away because he did not want to advertise and have people comeing round.

I have recently sold 4 jill kits and 1 hob kit about 11-12 weeks old for £5 each n 1 free to a mate

[Simple Simon 0]

normally 5-15 quid round our way but theres a market in melton mowbray where at this time of year they for next to nothing i got 1 for £2 last time i went so it kinda depends what time of year if you get top whack for them

[watchman 256]

the going rate round here is a tenner each,bred a litter myself this year just to keep myself stocked up as it were,the rest free to friends and a lad on here who is looking for a couple as long as they going to working homes then i give them away,some people will try and make a penny out of a pound of shit if given half a chance,no im not knocking people that sell ferrets for a reasonable price, im just saying generally that's all
