poisonous food for dogs as informed by vet
rob190364 replied to DeniseBrophy's topic in Working Dog Health & Training Talk
I've heard raw garlic aswell is bad for them aswell? -
I have some male hybrids, as in EU Polecat x domesticated ferret. At 7 weeks old they were the size of an average ferret jill and smelt like a hob coming into season. They were timid but prepared for a row. They live with my ferrets just fine now. They were more difficult to nip-train (still nippy now for no real reason) and seem to have a temper at times. They have better eyesight and aren't easily distracted with surroundings. They are built much stronger than ferrets and generally seem to only do what pleases them. Mine have been handled by children (supervised) and have been no bother,

I agree with Sam, it's a shame they are so cheap as some people see them as disposable items....I bought a ferret finder off here a couple of years ago, his reason for selling it.....I can get a ferret for a fiver, if it doesn't come out I'll just get another one. One of my ferrets disappeared into a bank last season and was too deep for the locator to pick him, I just sat it out well into darkness until he came out. I wouldn't leave a ferret anywhere any more than I would leave my dog! and if one turned out to be a crap worker I'd just keep it as a pet and get another worker.

Didn't know that about hemp....you learn something new every day!

why would it??? I leave mine out of the freezer for a few hours before feeding it to them (dog and ferrets) but if it's still slightly frozen I'll still give it to them, don't see why not.

Might be me being thick but I'm not 100% sure what you're saying to be honest! Do you mean you had a polecat that was crap, and then bred two ferrets and got a polecat coloured jill that was good?
-
ask your pa or an older relative if they'd go with you if you did find someone willing to take you out....that way you're not putting the responsibility of your own welfare on a stranger, and you're not putting yourself at risk by going off alone into the middle of nowhere with someone you don't know. You never know, they might get into it aswell!

if you get a pm off Earth report him to IanB

that's not the point of the thread, I'm not arsed what I call it to be honest because to me it's a stinker! the point of the thread was that I've always done what lots of other people have done on here and dismissed them as bog standard ferrets. Every other ferret I've ever had has either been a normal polecat coloured ferret or an albino and bar one or two minor personality differences they've all had exactly the same traits and have acted and looked exactly the same. This is a very dark coloured one that acts completely differently. I'm sure 99% of the people on here (myself included

fingers crossed mine doesn't go the same way! I must admit, that business of peeping out of the nest box does make me nervous about him doing the same thing in a warren. I'm going to give him plenty of running through pipes etc. and lots of handling before I even think about taking him out though!
-
I've had adult ferrets that would curl up and go to sleep on my knee but never seen a kit do it. It's hard to explain but all of its mannerisms aren't what I've seen in other ferrets. It looks around a lot more, as if it uses it's sight a lot more than normal ferrets who tend to be inspecting everything with their noses more. And the thing about the two ferrets being stand offish, not playing or sleeping together? that's the bit that I find the most unusual.
-
Exactly, I've never seen a ferret do anything else! Even when I've got kits in the past that have had no handling whatsoever, they've all been straight to the front of the cage aswell. When I approach the cage he'll leg it into the nest box, then peep out of the nest box for a couple of minute...slowly make his way out and then once he's out he'll be fine. It's proper cautious though. When he's peeping out if I put my hand to his face he won't dart back in or nip or anything, he'll just sniff my hand but stay where he is for a while. It's really odd because when you're holding him he's so

first session out with the ferret yesterday, far too many nettles to do anything with most of the sets but great to be back out again
