My Kits...


Recommended Posts

My Jill gave birth to a litter of 3 kits on 13th May so just over 2 weeks old now. One of the kits was still born and all 3 were massive when they were born. Twice the size of the kits last year from a litter of 9.

 

They are growing really well and the Jill is doing great. Getting through the best part of a rabbit every 2 days.

 

The white kit is a Hob and the dark coloured kit is a Jill...

They're beautiful matey, really interested in the dark one... I'm (fairly) new to ferrets but not seen one like that before ^_^

 

Glad the Jill is well n'all too! Would like to see and hear more about them too as time goes on :thumbs:

Thanks pal. I think it will be polecat coloured but I don't know for certain. It's like a blue/grey slate colour all over at the moment.
