wilbur foxhound 480 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 If you handle new born kits there’s a chance she will have nothing to do with them Link to post Share on other sites
socks 32,253 Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 I’ve always handled new born kits and never ever had a problem. If you’ve got a good bond with your ferrets and they trust you there is no issue ...... Link to post Share on other sites

They will kill there own I bet you don't touch them in there 1st week or so just look and count?????? No bollox .... either last year or the year before I had a jill birth a kit on my hand when I was cleaning them out I put a post up here about it ...

socks 32,253 Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 How is it pathetic you fukcing clown ... if I want two jills and a mate wants a Jill and she has a litter of 5 hobs and 3 jills why raise a litter of unwanted kits ....... 4 Link to post Share on other sites
terryd 8,014 Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Loads of kits each year because people seem to have them just to get the jills out of season instead of the jab or snipped hob or just leave them in season. So if you need a couple from your own stock makes sense to cull at birth. Poor old unwanted ferrets get a grim life if they end up in wrong hands Link to post Share on other sites

They can fetch 25 quid now [BANNED TEXT] I was young they were a fiver... Whats the price of a ferret got to do with culling? I would sooner cull than have a dick head give me a tenner for any animal. If more animals were culled and only those wanted found good homes we would not have half of the unwanted animals we have now 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Pathetic.... Some good folk of here couldn't risk see animals go into wrong hands and get abused, long term for all concerned culling is the right option Link to post Share on other sites

But if I did I would cull rather than forever wonder if I've just sold an animal into a life of misery 1 Link to post Share on other sites
delswal 3,817 Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 8 hours ago, Our team said: Bolox Listen cock for brains, I've a lurcher bitch here I would like breed, but knowing my luck she would drop a big litter. Thats means I have to find maybe 7-8 good homes for pups for that reason I won't breed and would sooner buy in from elsewhere, whats bollocks about that. For the record, I would sooner cull any animal of any age before it fell into the wrong hands. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
