joehoskin 0 Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 my dad has caught a wild ferret and it is very black and a lot bigger than my ferrets , the only problem is that you cant get near it to check it out propley , does anyone have any ideas how to tame it . or do you think i would be wasting my time becuse it is quite old by the looks of it?

Rake aboot 4,935 Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 So ,,nobody has actually caught one,, just been given one that "might be a wild polecat" but is just as likely to be a ferret,,which is ofcourse just a domesticated polecat !! Any ferret left to go ferral will go hard and lean an it`s offspring will go the same, but it`s still a ferret, or does wild EU ferret not bring as much at kit flogging time ! Has anyone had one confirmed as a different species to the domesticated ferret ? Quote Link to post

Has anyone had one confirmed as a different species to the domesticated ferret ? ME! i caught one in my back garden, it was trying to steal the fish. Had to get shoota matts ferrets round to sort it out!! it was huge! watching them fight was like a pokemon battle!! We had to break it up as one of shoota matts albino ferrets broke a claw!! we had to use ma mums bra of the washing line to catch it!! we got it though. We named it 'Rake' Quote Link to post
