last year i helped my jill break the sacks-she had 10-they all lived- depends on the nature of the ferret

Luckily one of jills drags my hand in the nest from day 1 so I get contact straight away, but would leave well alone until you think the Jill is ready and not much chance of the jill killing them alb

i didnt touch mine for a few days , just give her a chance to be with them alone, she;l be fine as long as she knows you after a few days but not in the first couple of days, just my oppinion! just found 1 of my kits dead, gutted!

i leave mine until there crawling out the nest, whats everyones rush? let nature do its thing plenty time for counting/touching kits

Same here a jill we got off a cowboy called dogger launches herself at you so we tend to leave her well alone till shes a bit fed up with them

thats correct dogger,but it dont happen when young kids are involved, my lad was in at the birth,his ferrets are well tame though ,he even smells like em.

i dont tell my two girls until the kits are bigger or id have the same problem as there forever at me to handle the young ones best way to stop getting bitten is let the bairns play with them lol
