thats cheap cheapest i can find up here is 75 did they send the tissue away to get tested ?to see if it worked

[Deej 22]

they didn't say, so i presume not, 7 weeks they told me before he can cover the jills, not to bad their not showing any signs of coming into season yet so good timing i think.

They ask if you want the tissue sent away so they can see if they have cut off the right bit thats another thirty five quid , i said dont bother if you havent you can have all the kits from the jills for free

haha awesome. No they didnt say a thing about it, it is apparently a ferret friendly vets tho so i presume they are confident.

I paid £78 to have mine done yesterday. They quoted £60 but then said that they'd made a mistake and had quoted me the price for a castration by mistake. When i went to pick him up none of the nurses would handle him as he had bit the vet in fact when they opened the recovery cage they scrambled to get out of his way and i as cool as you like picked him up, gave him a pet and put him into his carrying box. He's going to be busy in a few weeks time as he's got 8 jills lined up already. Just hope they've done it right or i'm in trouble

haha classic, i only have 3 jills there a pain in the arse dunno how you manage with 8 lol, im hoping they done it right too, havent got room for any pinkys lol

Deej, I've a hob to be done, but was advised to wait until his testes have dropped as he comes into season. Had your fella's bollocks dropped?

[Deej 22]

they was starting to show themselves, wasn't fully down tho vet said that would be fine. i think they only say that because it makes the op easier.

That was one of the questions the vet asked me. I'm led to believe it can still be done if they haven't dropped but it makes the operation that bit easier if they have already dropped.

Thanks for that. I got the impression from the vet that she needed something to go at. I'll have to keep a close eye on him and as soon as I feel them dropping I'll get him in. Hope nobody sees me fondling him, I do like him but not that much.

I have just the 3 jills myself. A few mates are looking to use him but it looks as though mine will be used to test if the vet has done it right. Bottom line is if mine have litters i'm telling them anyway that the vet done it right and then laugh at them when theirs have their kits.

Sometimes if you put him in the same vicinity with a jill that has come into season they'll drop overnight. I borrowed my mates hob last year and his hadn't dropped at all but being with the jill just a couple of hours they dropped
