neutering

[Born Hunter 17,751]

im going to be gettin ferrets and have decided on 2 jills, i have no intension of breeding from them no matter even if they turn out to be great workers so have thought about getting them neutered.

 

would neutering them affect their working ability in any way? from what i understand it wont and is the best thing to do in my circumstances but i like to run any doubts past you lot first.

 

thanks

It will make no difference. We have all ours done and they still work great.

i was pretty sure i was right just wanted to double check before making any decisions

If your not going to breed its pointless keeping them entire it causes problems health wise so i would defo get them speyed

i understand that, just wasnt sure if people prefered to keep then entire and bring them out of season using a vesectomised hob if it affected thier working ability being neutered.

 

thanks anyway, sound advice

I have all mine done and it hasn't effected them negatively at all.

I would get a hob snipped and use him and if your jills turn out to be cracking workers you can bred from them in years to come and keep the strain going
