GUTTED !

[richie 1]

WENT OUT THIS MORNING TO CLEAN THE COURT OUT & COULD ONLY SEE 5 OF MY FERRETS. FOUND THE 6th "CHIC" CURLED UP DEAD... I AM F*CKING SICK TO THE STOMACH.

 

SHE WAS 2 YEARS OLD. WHEN I SAW HER YESTERDAY, SHE WAS AS HAPPY AS LARRY.. EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS ONE OF MY BEST WORKERS, IT AINT THE POINT. IM GOING TO MISS HER.

 

IM TAKING THE REST TO THE VET TOMORROW JUST TO GET THEM CHECKED OVER, BUT THEIR LIVELY AS USUAL.

I've nearly always had a few going about the place, but never had one died like that, so sorry to hear it mate. Hope the rest of your family are ok. Had she been rabbiting the day before?

she hasnt been out for the last 6 or 7 weeks. ive been out with a new ferret getting her use to things....

[Guest SJM]

Ive never had one die suddenly or heard of it either, but my ferrets were very inbred, and what I will say is that in the first couple of inbreedings I saw unusual things like short stumpy tails, extra toes and white markings on the polecats, then in the next few generations I tended to get kits dying off at an early age and only a couple surviving but the ones that did survive went on to live very long healthy lives

Something we all dread happening. Keep your chin up.

Mooster.
