ryangolding 4 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Hi all im having a bit of trouble, i took a couple of spayed jills off a lad off here as he didnt have the time for them, one of them took a little time before she was hand tame, now she soft as, but the other is a little terror, ive bin handeling her everyday for the last 4-5 months and i cant do anything with her, she really does bite down hard and draws blood, whats your opinions????? And has anybody had owt like this?? Ive 12 ferrets 11 of them are lovely apart from this one me and my wife call her fingers!! Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 You seem to have given the ferret every chance,give it to someone to work who will overlook its indiscretions,otherwise cull. Quote Link to post

socks 32,253 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 this is real easy to cure ... get yourself some cheap shit aftershave pour a bit on your hands rub it all in covering your hands and go and pick up the ferret ... she will go to bite taste the foul aftershave and let you go ... do this a few times every day and within 5 days she will never bite againe ... job done ..........

joe14 98 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Give her a plate of cat milk whilst shes lapping it up stroke her, avoid sudden movements etc. Get some tone or malte paste from p@h put it on your hand a clench your fist so she cant get grip, if she goes to bite take the tasty treat away, keep offering untill she doesnt bite. She will learn that hands are good things and provide food. Quote Link to post
