Guest holey Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 hi all i was just wondering when the jill comes in season and the hob has got to her does the swelling begin to go down or does it stay swollen all the time till she finishes as ive been told by other people that once the hob has done the buisness the jill will go down as this is her first time and mine in breeding ferrets help would be gratefull Quote Link to post
doddsy1970 9 Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Yes holey the swelling will go down once the hob has mated normally it is the sign she is pregnant but its not a guarantee. Gestation is about 40 - 45 days from last mating I think im right in saying Quote Link to post
