    my daughter wanted to get her new pet , a ferret collar and lead . non of the local shops sell them , so we took a drive to pets at home , but the only ones they had were multi-coloured namby - pamby things . any one know where to get a decent one . cheers

    used this before -- its used on cows mats ( cubicle housed herds ), for lactating cows , helps stop the spread of mastitis . no sure but might be a bit strong for a ferret . i would,nt use it , but thats just my opinion .

    no wind up , the chap as kept ferrets for 24 years , but only ever as pets , he dont beleave in working them his words . so thats probably why he said it .

    can pet ferrets be workers as well took the one i found to a rescue place as the RSPCA where bloody useless . he de-ticked here and flea sprayed her , checked her over and said she was a very nice find indeed . i asked about rabbiting and he reckoned no she was a tame un , only the vicious ones will work , you have to treat them a bit rough and no good trying to work a pet ferret . well this ferret may have been a pet at some time , but when i found her she was roughing it , nicking eggs etc . what do you all think about this ???.

  17. darren m
    thanks lads for the info -- i just might bath her , just this once , for the sake of my marrage
  18. darren m
    this might seem like a daft question -- but can you bathe a ferret , to freshen it up / kill parasites etc . if so what do you use . thanks again .

    just been reading past posts -- there is a mention of the jill jab , how often would this be needed , how much do they cost . if a ferret is spayed , does it affect there working at all , would it increase in weight , are there any pros and cons for it . as you can tell i,m new to this , found this ferret last night in the feed room at the stables , she seems tame-ish , but dont know what to do with her . got her in a metal gage 2ft by 3ft with straw bedding , water and dry go-cat . any help and advice welcomed :thumbs-up: .
