Hobs Vs Jills

[Foxhole 22]

Hobs are more in love with you but less in love with a bunny....Peace man!

My experience of both sexes the hobs I have kept have been very laid back. One hob I had was not really intrested in attacking anything with much force which would be great while out ferreting as never had to dig to him. Was as soft as muck but unfortunately he did a runner out if the garden and hasnt be seen since.

 

Now all of my jills are a different all together they will attack anything from a mouse to my wife's great Dane. They will work like the devil and make sure every rabbit is cleared before wondering out of the hole.

 

Both are tame as anything with people

If your hob wasn't interested in attacking things with much force then you must have had a pretty lame hob pal! IMO, hobs are a bit more laid back with people, but they certainly don't lack when it comes to aggression with quarry!

He may have been lame like you say but I never had to dig to him, and he always cleared a set so was doing something right. Shame he did a runner but got a kit of him now ready to try later through the year, if he turns out half as good al be a happy man

I prefer jills, in my experience iv had less trouble with lay ups the smaller size (generally) they slip through the nets without wreckin all of them which is a bonus for when I'm on my own, the opposite theory for the gun dogs, the dog vs bitch argument for me the dog wins every time, I suppose its down to the particular ferret in particular circumstance??
