Yes right go and give the vet 35 quid for him to tell you yes it's earmites ????? Then give you some crap for another twenty ,??? Just get the anti paracite from the pet shop , if left untreated ear mites can be unpleasant for ferrets they loose there balance and go down hill , so I wouldn't hang about will cost you 4.50 at the petshop job done ,
Why don't you breed out of one. ?????? You could do with a couple more jills mate for in the afternoons mate keep pushing Them two jills in big warrens they get tired u know , send us a text if your about I will bell you back ,
Some good honest replies on here lads and lases , it's all so good having days out with other like minded ferreters sharing knowledge and measuring up stock it's a real eye opener and sorts the wheat from the chaf , but I supose like everything if you don't see other stuff in action your not aware of what you've got , or some people don't allways want to see : )
Mine have never done this in the summer they may store a little but they dont seem to get that skinny and they have all there tackle to I got 8 hobs at the moment and over 20 years never noticed it either not saying you wrong either maybe I do some thing different I will have to have a closer look at mine and see if it happening to mine I have noticed there hair is finer making them look thinner but there weight stays around 4lb.
Not saying they get real skinny just loose there winter extras and to some may look a but drab , also hormonal ferrets start sorry can look rough from fur loss
You can get some anti parasite spot on in most pet shops for ferrets no harm in doing them as it does everything including mange it's called beaphar , anti parasite spot on for ferrets , even kills and treats ear mites I know as dud one last summer ,
Ferrets Loosecwhieght this time of year they look as there ment to they dont need fat in summer , intact hobs in seson loose even more that's if yours are intact if they're eating there ok stashing = over fed
Don't forget the bagging ????? So you want more net than line 100% == double amount of netting and so on , lay the net on the floor Mark out desired size of nets with a peg or something then pull the net down the line till you have the desired bagging then cut net good luck
As title, stick what you want in it , these sell new for over 600 notes brand new , no silly offers located in Surrey , going on eBay soon . Slight damage to front but adds to the character , collection only funnily enough,
