BEARINATOR 2,924 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Frank most strange ferrets will squabble to start with, then they will eventually settle down when a pack structure is formed. Good luck with them Quote Link to post
max abell 198 Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 We keep all our ferrets in one big court unless we have bred our best jill she then is taken out and allowed to have her kitts in peace she is returned to the court after weaning her young any kitts that we are keeping are introduced to the court slowly a bit at a time you do get a bit of squabbling to begin with untill a pecking order is established but 99% of the time they are fine you do however get on the rare occasion a ferret that just dont get on with others and they will unfortunatly have to be kept in a seperate cage dont forget come the spring you will have to seperate the jills and hobs unless they have been castrated or spayed GOOD LUCK MATE Quote Link to post
