Davidh 5 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) Hi does anyone know where I can get a black eyed white (i mean pure white not a light silver) jill kit from? I live in kent. I have been looking for a couple of years and cannot find one. Any help much appreciated. I am only interested in trying to get some of the more unsual colours into the working field, as there seems to be a split between the colours between pet/show and working animals which surely is wrong.

How is it wrong to have a split? There were good working ferrets for years and years and decades and decades and everyone was quite happy with their ferret being an albino, or a poley or maybe a sandy. But then one day some folk decided that they wanted 'prettier' ferrets and so it all began. Mind you i ended up with a silver jill that's a cracking worker, but she won't get bred off.

Davidh 5 Posted July 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Glad to see I have stirred up some interest. I just wanted to make the point that as has already been pointed out the colour does not matter. It just seems to me that the pure show fraternity (I use the word pure with caution) are trying to breed so many colour variations that we may loose sight of what the ferret is really all about a working/pet. I have also heard many old timers say that all these variations are diluting the real working instinct. I would just like to try a few variations to see if they are as good a working animal as the albino and polecat. Happy discussions Quote Link to post
