Unless its aggressive behaviour i would not worry, some still show maternal behavior after spaying once the in season time starts, it will stop shortly..

also have a hob that drags the girls around a bit at certain times and hes had his clackers off..

I have a jill that often drags the other jills back into the nest box, like they are her babys they do get a bit pissed off about it after the 20th time

Hormonal Jills will drag round any ferret regardless .. not sure why peeps are supprised they drag male ferrets round.. the mother looks after both sexes in the litter not just jills

there mothering skills go into over drive this time of the year its perfectly normal for jills to drag each other about

[dave1600d 35]

when you say about mothering and hormones going into overdrive....does it still affect spayed jills?,,i would have thought that being spayed their hormones would not be present?,,,please tell me if im being thick or something but i wanna be sure in case it gets more aggressive,,thanks in advance,,dave

As i said in my 1st post ... yes it can still affect spayed jills, it only lasts a week or two and she will drag others about ( think they must be programmed ) she wont get aggressive just motherley

I take it you don`t have ferrets mate. Either that or you know nothing about keeping them.

Hobs get castrated to allow a number of hobs to live together in the same court. It does not affect there working ability and can save a lot of grief.

 

Sounds like the "silly girl " knows more about it, maybe she could help you learn a bit about keeping them.
