Albino Been More Steady Then A Polecat Coloured Ferret

[wullieh 53]

Best worker I've ever seen was a polecat my mate got from a pet owner who had a big fat albino hob and a sandy jill, both had never even tasted rabbit but managed to produce a nice polecat jill and this jill left others standing just when you thought you had emptied a set by getting out 4 or 5 he would walk up and put his ferret down to produce another one or two.

it always seems that the albinos are the most steady. The polecat colloured ones always seem to be a little skittish at times. Have any of you found this

i have personally found this to be true over the last 5 years. i have owned 4 polecats and none of them have been my cup of tea. had a two year old jill that was tame in the hutch at then onece down a hole would try and take your finger off. similar situation with the two kits i kept out of her. i have had 8 albinos over the past 5 years and 5 have made the grade. i personally now only work albinos, however i do believe their are bad ones and good ones in every breed

i work both albinos and polecat coloured ferrets now i find they both work aswell as each other ive always kept albinos but my mate got me a polecat hob off keeps a few years ago he,s now crossed into the albino bitches i had, i think its more important there from good working parents than anything to do with colour

every breed??? a ferret is a ferret, albinos and brown ferrets aren't different breeds??

 

working abilities and temperaments vary from ferret to ferret, but it's nothing to do with the colour.
