This video was filmed over a 3 month period, its following on of my albino Jill's called Gretta and it was her first ever litter.
I thought she had 10 but the total number was 11, sadly two kits died in the first 24hrs but she raised 9 health kits.

Excellent info for the new starters Like you say it’s all about handling the baby’s and keep them well fed, I’ve kept ferrets for over 40 yrs and still have them. Good working ferrets they are.

Thank you for sharing this amazing breeding video! Ferrets are illegal in California where I live so the ones that I have owned I have had to smuggle in from Arizona or Nevada. I have bred one of my Jill's once and out of the four or five kits only one survived, the Jill actually ate several. Your ferrets are and amazing and beautiful looking creatures and I have watched a few videos of the ferreting process, which I've never personally witnessed live but it's cool to watch the videos. A lot of work goes into to it.

For others, please only breed if you know the bloodlines, and they are solid. Also, you can now use a deslorelin implant to bring jills out of season rather than either a vassy hob or an intact one.

May I ask. Why did you separate the mum from them at 6-weeks old is there a particular reason they would be separated so young? All three of my jills have been mated yet the vulva does not seem to be getting any smaller.
@EastMidFieldsports
@EastMidFieldsports Год назад
They are removed at 6 weeks to give the Jill a rest, by then the kits can eat & drink independently. Once mated it can take a week or two for the vulva to go down but in some cases it may not.
@Mouzle
@Mouzle Год назад
@@EastMidFieldsports thank you ever so much for explaining that. One of my jills has been mated 4 weeks ago and her vulva is still swollen. Her shape is starting to look perfect so I'm assuming she is actually pregnant. However I was wondering whether I should put the male in with her again to be on the safe side.

Hi, it could be a problem with the hob/Jill (infertile) did the hob cover the Jill? Also she could of aborted the litter and come back into season. Ferrets can be tricky when it comes to breeding some have no issues and some can be a nightmare.
