Poacherspocket 189 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Currently i have 2 hobs a small albino and a huge wierd looking hob whos about 8 now i was wondering if anyone on here keeps a small proven line of ferrets. Im after a poley type jill the reason being i cant ever breed albino to albino thats all and i do like them that way. Im not after one to breed from its just its taken me that long to find a decent ferret if i aquire a decent jill i know were i stand with my hob and can breed for myself then. Hope someone can help cheers. 1 Quote Link to post
krawnden 1,036 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 I'm curious - why can't you breed albinos? Quote Link to post
Poacherspocket 189 Posted February 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 I might be wrong but iv always been told you cant breed albino to albino or it could cause birth defects same as it would brither to sister. If someone says otherwise though there probably right i cant even remember who told me that. Quote Link to post

krawnden 1,036 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Yeah, lurchers and neil have already told you - that's just a steaming big pile of tosh. Silver to silver's not a good idea, but albino to albino is safe as houses. Just be warned, the whole litter will be albinos too. Quote Link to post
Chicken_man 1,651 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Bred a lot of albino to albino over the yrs, no problems at all. On you go :-) Atb Quote Link to post

Thanks i appreciate it where abouts are you? Have you kept this line of ferrets for a while or are they unrelated bloodline wise?The polecats come from a good mate who son got them off a keeper and the albino is off another fried who only ferrets and had the line for years.i just like to keep a small tight line if a can but of all sandys what my uncle had for years.but the last time i put albino to polecat a got a litter of half and half.i pleased the way they graft and i havnt bred any for a good few years so im just keeping this line if i can.im in Durham mate Edited February 14, 2016 by lurchers Quote Link to post
ZeusPolecat 185 Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) Never seen a problem with albino to albino. There's tales against eyesight but I've never noticed a difference, nor seen it mentioned on here. Perhaps an old wives tale. Silvers can have problems, which I've seen myself and believe the breeding was the problem but only my opinion. Took plenty albino to albino kits from my uncle, in early life and they lived long equipped lives. Edited February 18, 2016 by ZeusPolecat Quote Link to post
