gnipper 6,426 Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Just leave the jill be and have a peep in a few days when she's settled with them. If their still born or something there's nothing you can do about it is there, and she could eat them because you've been messing with them which you won't be able to stop either. 4 Quote Link to post

tinman3 3 Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 have you had any movement yet? mine had hers a week ago and i just let her be, kept poping out and checking on them they were quite still for a while then after a few hours i checked and they were riggleing about and squeeking, just keep am eye on them carefull though she might not like it if you keep going in some ferrets are ok others may kill the young. she should be fine like Quote Link to post
ferreterjohn 0 Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 best advice if dont interfer mate, leave her to get on with it, she will take to being a mother and have a quick peep tomorrow to see how many she had mate the baby ferret normally spleep most the time at, one moment there all be moving round going mad for milk, next minute there all still and look dead, but there sleeping. if you sure its dead, take it out with out her seeing but let here give birth to all of them first so you dont stress her Quote Link to post
