Thanks for the advise, will give it another 2 weeks but if it persists then I think ill have to show it my hammer! Sounds bad but I'm not gonna put it up for rehoming if all its gonna do is bite!

when mine and my sons hobs were biting as youngsters last year we were advised to try putting malt paste ( which is a ferret vitamin paste cost i think about £4 ) on the back of our free hand and let the ferret lick it off whilst holding them . i bought some from ebay and we used it for around 5 weeks handling as much as we could and they have been brilliant since .

we were also told to kill the ferrets and get new ones but i am so glad i didn't

[BS40liam 203]

I was just on the internet and it said about dripping lemon juice on its nose everytime it bites and I just tried it out in the shed just a min ago and it made her worse! I think I've really just had enough nowso I'm looking for a young kit, younger the better if anyone has any going?

A good bit of graft might do her good mate I had one like a different ferret when I eventually got the collar on after it pissing and shutting all over me oh and trying to bite , once that collar was on she went as limp as anything couldn't believe it , and when she surfaced from the warren was like id found someone else's stinker : / just scooped her up no bother , like said get another Jill , she probably sees you coming down the garden and thinks oh no it's this tit again lol : ) she may wellget better with age and graft , unless and a big if she could be unwell and something not right internal or something , or your just a big fanny and pish with ferrets only kiding all the best ,

i never did anything that hurt or scared ours , they learnt to enjoy being held and have turned out to be fine workers the malt paste worked for us dont give up yet atb with her

Have you tried emtying your bladder on it

[terryd 8,562]

put a bit of ferret formula or some sort of oil they like on your hand so they go into lick mode rather than try and take your hand off

[BS40liam 203]

Lol I saw that on the other thread! Won't catch me pissing on her ffs! She might bite my pisser off! Hahaha
