In between a dog and cat for intelligence imo... Kids have them in the house most days to play with them converted an old lurcher run for them 3 m x 2 m, enough room to sit down in there with em, they thrive on human contact, come when called or whistled Quote Link to post

Lamper121 239 Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) If I sell any of a litter I charge £15-20. As said before this is to ensure people are serious. To be fair a ferret is still a working animal which can bring years of working ability, I think in general they are under valued. Edited May 13, 2020 by Lamper121 3 Quote Link to post

Maximus Ferret 2,063 Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 On 11/05/2020 at 18:18, jigsaw said: just out of interest ,what price do you charge ,or are willing to pay for a ferret kit of 8 weeks old? ive been looking for a jill for the daughter and off hand dont know of anyone that has them available ,so i trawled through the FB pages and came across 3,none of whom im acquainted with,,the first lady was a pet owner and asking 50 quid ,and not that im a tight fecker but ,i said thanks but no thanks,the second was 25 and third 30...so i was just wondering was this the going rate for a young kit these days ...weve more or less booked 1 and should have it in a months time ...so what you folk happy to pay or charge for a young un I used to charge 25 euro if I remember right. It was a while ago that I bred last and that was the going rate. I stopped keeping and breeding as I wasn't ferreting much but since I've a young pup on (8 months) I'd like to get one so he knows they are not fair game. Did you come across many from working lines?

ollieollie 766 Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 I don’t charge, but I don’t advertise either. Except here and its a few years in between each time I breed. Quote Link to post
Carraghs Gem 1,675 Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I just paid 25euros for a albino hob kit a couple of days ago That felt like extortion tbh but ferrets are hard found round these parts Quote Link to post
