Haha no problem. Im not sure what the scientific term is for a hob during the breeding season so Ill probably keep calling it in season.

Hobs dont have a season buddy

Yes they do from end of January to September and that's how long mine stays in season for hobs are referred to as being 'in season' from every info source out there so I think its the general term for both sexes

Don't the americans call it "the rut" when a hob is "horny" ?

One of my two hobs died a couple months ago and the remaining hob is alone, I have a litter of kits at 13 weeks the father is the living hob would it be hard to put a kit with the muture hob or would he kill it as I don't like keeping a ferret alone.

I would say they would be alright to put together but would introduce the hob to the kits in the jills cage or a court not in the hobs cage for first meeting till you see how he will react this is how i have always done it and never had any trouble.I was told once of kits been put in a hobs cage they were alright for the 20mins the owner was watching but when he came back the next day only one kit was left alive.You say your other hob died a couple of months ago and you kept him with another hob.how did your other hob die?I have kept hobs together many a time some litter mates some were not but all have started to fight come breeding time some more than others.In the cases were one of the two of the hobs has become subserbant(which meant at breeding time of year the others bitch in most cases) they have been able to be kept together with little fighting but in cases were ive had two who were domiant ive had to seperate or they would have killed each other or at very least one of them.so a little caution is well advised at certain times of the year when it comes to hobs as no ferret will react the same as another every animal is differant in temperment as in all aniamal.
