When you say young ferrets do you mean this years kits or last years? Looks like they're last years to me and that poor sod has been the taker not the giver all summer, split them up or cut the others balls off and it will probably clear up on its own.

No there this years kits 15weeks old the now

lol this is the smaller 1 that tend to get rag dolled when there having a scuffle I’m gona separate them use the blue spray and once it heals try putting them back together it started just as a wee nick so hopefully once healed th skin will be  tough enough for a scuffle.  Also does cutting there balls off effect there working?

It won't stop them working, if anything it can make them more useful as you can work them year round where lots of entire ferrets go off the boil in breeding season. It makes it easier to keep hobs together in the summer too without all the fighting and raping.

Can't beat that blue spray the vets use. Purple sprays good but the blue is alot better. I use a product called cut & heal its great stuff. Comes in a bottle with a little plastic stick attached to the lid has a bit of sponge on the end too dab it onto the wound. A gave my old bottle to a pal last year never seen it again. Lol. A will have to order some more now winter months are here.
