28xxgeo 28 Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Well got up this morning quickly doing my duties [BANNED TEXT] work dog walk etc come bk in the back gate heard the sound of kits in the hutch sure enough 9 kits 1 dead so had no time to sort the other hut had no option but too leave my hob in beside mum and kits home from work 12 hrs later to discover bk upto 9 kits and the hob not bothered by them infact cuddling round them with the jill i have seperated him now but i seriously thought the worst going too work today anyone else ever had a hob that dont bother had an old guy tell me once [BANNED TEXT] about an albino hob he had that stayed with kits till they were gone but honestly thought it was bulls**t Quote Link to post
dogger 100 Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 heard mixed opinions on this but me personally wouldnt keep the hob in with a jill with kits he might not eat them but may lie on them and squash them 1 Quote Link to post
Mr Goodcat 69 Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 I've had a few litters over the year's in large court's where the they've all been in together and been completely unharmed and looked after from both sides. I'v also tried to breed from one jill I owned but every time she would eat her young whenever she was in a breeding hutch separated from the other's by herself, the only time she did successfully rear kit's is when she was sharing a court with other jills and a seedless hob... Funny little things. 1 Quote Link to post
johnrthrfrd 223 Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Have left hob in with the Kitts on numerous occasions and never had any problems Quote Link to post

johnrthrfrd 223 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Does the job not harass the jill the hole time though lads? No never had that problem and have done it with a few different hobs. Quote Link to post
James ed 58 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Cheers for the reply mate, I might try it next time, I always thought because the hob was in rut he would just keep on wanting to nail the jill, thanks any way johnrthrfrd I will give it a go Quote Link to post
The one 8,404 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 My old hob was the same never bothered the kits but i was scared he would lie on them he was a big old begger 1 Quote Link to post
