mothering jills


Recommended Posts

I know with time of year jills start molting,mothering other jills,draging them to sleeping area etc.My 5 jills are doing this to each other but theres one thats squeels like f**k when shes getting draged about,proper squeels like,the same jill has lost ALOT of hair compared to others,others are molting but this one has lost most of her hair on back and stomach.Hair on head/neck,legs and tail is as it was but what hair she has on back and stomach is very short.

 

theres no broken skin yet where others have been griping her,this could be 100% normal but thought id ask.what yous reckon?

probably the least dominant out of them so is getting more greif and stress than the others, picked oan if you like, maybe worthwhile seperating for a while so she can have some peace :thumbs:

i can split them no problem but would rather them all in together if possible,was the idea of the hut,one ferret on its tod isnt really fair but not much choice eh.have split her from the rest the now,shes getting it tight like.was watching them early on,3 jills pulling the one.when theres no space they are trying to grip her ear and face.still no broken skin but when checkin i pulled the skin on back of neck and there was a squeel,also a slight hiss that she doesnt normaly do when handled etc so could be abit sare...wee fuckers like,dont see them doing it to the bigger jill and they arent brave enough to mess with the hob lol.
