Rake aboot 4,936 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 It`s a dose of hormones that will knock her out of season,,, and it shoulda been done before being in season for 2 months bud,, get it done soon as,, bit late for any of the alternatives. But think about it well in advance next time.. ATB Quote Link to post

ferret100 47 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 can anyone tell me what the jabb injection is and what it does Some basic info... ‘Jill Jab’ A veterinarian will inject the jill with a drug such as Proligestonen, as a method of hormone control to prevent oestrus (in-season). This should be administered before the jill comes into season (usually in March) and a repeat treatment may be required if the jill comes back into oestrus the same year. This injection can be painful and cause irritation at the injection site. Over 90% of jills will come back into oestrus the following year. Jill Jabs may cause a false pregnancy and pyometra is a potential risk. Quote Link to post

Some folk on here are complete idiots and wouldn't recognise proper ferret husbandry if it kicked them up their gormless arses. Edited to say...regardless of the 'x' years experience they say they have... The saying 'There's no fool like an old fool' often springs to my mind when I read comments on here, plus you get the stubborn ones too who refuse to learn anything.
