Malt 379 Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Just sounds like a normal Jill to me. If you're used to hobs I can see how you think she's abonormal, I've found they're always on the go compared to hobs who are generally more relaxed and chilled out. Quote Link to post

Well if you think she's hyper it obviously means you think she's exhibiting different behaviour than what you personally would consider 'normal' for a ferret, so I can't see how I was wrong in using the word 'abnormal!' I've always found Jill's more skittish and harder to handle but then I always find they get working with less fuss than hobs.. Quote Link to post
stinkers 102 Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 My hob is a so calm and plods around ....the jill....first time i took her out for a hunt she went mad as a hatter. Worked the sets well but when she come out and went for her own mooch i had the war dance going on for ten minutes and the fecker trying to climb up me legs ....when i squeeked her whic i do with both my stinkers she was running up behind me and literally jumping up my back of me legs....totally mad fecker. Kids thought it was brilliant....as they went ten yards backwards as they thought she was going to attack them. Hobs seem more chilled and not all jills are like this but if she still quite young maybe grow out of it......funny to watch ..not so funny when trying to get them to work. Quote Link to post
blond 8 Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 my jills are skittish too, when all four ferrets two jills and two hobs are in the the run together, the jills go mental, running and bouncing all over the place, makes me laugh seeing how they perform Quote Link to post
crazy ferreter 14 Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 My Jill that I got this year is hyper jumping and rolling over but when I take her out she is not hyper she just does her work and she is the best ferret I have ever had Quote Link to post
