ferretmaniac 5 Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Hey! Well i have read on here on another occasion that the hob and i think the jills stay in season from now untill august, so they have a pretty long time to be still in. Maybe the hobs just aint fully ready yet but it sounds like the case cos he is having ago. Are you wantin to breed them? FM Quote Link to post

jazz_11 5 Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 thanks for the advice fella i have seen them do it i dont no if i can get an older hob but will ask around... i am wanting to breed from them as the demand for ferrets round me is pretty good. how soon will the jills swelling go down after its been "done".... cheers jazz Quote Link to post
jazz_11 5 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 looks like the hob has found out how to work his bits..... the one jill is on her way out of season now and the other should be on her way out soon as he has deffinatly been done by the hob all the signs are there. now im going to split the hob up after the weekend proberbly and get the 3 jills together. now do i count 6 weeks from the time the swelling goes right down or should i be counting now...? cheers Quote Link to post
Kay 3,709 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I would sugest you do some research & quick Quote Link to post
MikeTheDog 153 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) ..Come on lads get real!...Do a little research before breeding, there's a lot of info' at your finger tips on the www and answers to your questions about ferrets in oestrus. As for the house brick, you need two to bring a hob out of season! Edited April 4, 2009 by MikeTheDog Quote Link to post
