castrated fert

[mancterrierman 1]

ive got a 5 month old hob recently become a hoblet last thurs (had him castrated) before this he couldn't be put with another fert he was just to ruff [bANNED TEXT] any we tried to match him [bANNED TEXT]. Will this now calm him down and anable us to giv him a companion cos i don't like seein him on his own. I know it might take a couple of months for the opp to show any signs of effect buy will it work? Also if it does calm him down shall i try him [bANNED TEXT] another hoblet or a spayed jill? Abt manc

It's an entirely individual thing in my experience. Most castrated ferts will accept company but there are some who just won't tolerate a new pal. I've tried 18 different ferrets in with my castrated albino hob, but he just battered every one.

 

When they are a solitary ferret though, i think they need a lot more handling and stimulation to keep them content.

As above its your choice but your going to have to wait till the stitches come out them wait till his hormones calm down . But if you go for a jill hes no use to bring her out of season ,so you may be better looking at hobs ????

Most of mine only took a few weeks for the hormones to subside, you can get either sex to go in with him but if another hob yes he will need his nuts off.. if you can take him when you go for another fert and let him choose who he likes, it saves on fighting during introductions

mine was sweet straight away with others. best is to try him with another and see how the get on. make sure you have some thick gloves on just incase they dont get on. lol.

 

best of luck

Either or mate, I tend to get my ferts from rescue centres (already de-sexed) and they generally all get on well.

Ferts are social animals and are better with a buddy. HTH. Cheers, D.

at the end of the day, all ferts are different, so only you can tell, Ive got 4 hobletts, living in the court with 4 jills, all get on great, and although it goes against what everyone says, one of them, even though he has no nutts, still grabs jills that are in season and does the buisness, and gets them out of season
