Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Picked a lovely little Jill up yesterday and she had got slightly webbed feet and also quite a pointy face. Anyone else come across this? Doesnt bother me in the slightest as she is really tame and from good working stock. Just wondering if it's common? Gaz Quote Link to post
gnipper 6,874 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Haven't all ferrets got webbed feet? Along with the pointy face it will make no difference to her working ability, some ferrets have blunt faces some are really pointy just depends how they been bred. Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Im sure it wont affect working ability, was just curious. None of my others have got webbed feet.. Quote Link to post
Malt 379 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 How old is it mate? All me ferrets had webbed feet as youngsters, but their feet sort of grew into the loose skin as they got older. Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 I'd say she was fully grown, an early one from this year. Cheers. Quote Link to post
Ferret mad Dave 65 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 You got any pics mate would be interesting too see Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Will sort some pics tomorrow mate yeh. Just been down to the ferret shed and she has definitely got webbing between the toes. Not right to the ends. About half way. But my other 3 haven't got anything in-between at all. Like I said, I really don't mind, just interested to know if it's common or not. Thanks Gaz Quote Link to post
