My mate has bred his and I was just wondering what age are the kits ready to leave their mother? Regards, BP. Be better saying twelve weeks when i go to pick a kit i like to see something that looks like a young ferret no a big mouse which they do if folk try to get rid of them at 5/6 weeks Quote Link to post
ferret lady 73 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Kits really need to stay with their littermates and dam through at least 10 weeks. They aren't mature enough mentally and emotionally for a new home until then. There is nothing sadder than listening to a 6-8 week kit crying for his mother. If someone isn't willing to keep them that long, feed and socialize them properly, then they shouldn't have bred the litter. Quote Link to post
