info on ferrets

[DiStuRBeD 0]

hi guys

 

ive read heaps of stuff on the net on ferrets but...

 

nothing that says at what age they mature, what age they stop growing or what age the jills will come into season

 

can you enlighten me on this?

cheers millet

 

I got my ferret the same time as all the other breeders were advertising ferrets here in western australia

 

so i guess she'll come in season in a few months when its spring

 

im gonna have to find a snipped hob to bring her out of season

 

or would you say a jill on her first season would be ok to be put into kit?

cheers for the info

 

is it a certain time when they are in season that you have to mate, or just when them come on at any time?

 

would be nice to have my own little line of ferrets, the female i got is rather big for a female, or thats what my mate says anyway, biggest he has ever seen

 

shes a silver mitt, the male my mate owns is a polecat

 

both have excellent temperaments(mate says best he's ever seen) they never bite anyone and are a real pleasure to have in company

we dont really have many rats here in australia so they are not a priority
