Been looking at ferrets for a pet, had no idea they were used to catch rabbits until I saw “working” in front of the word “ferret” on a website Thought to myself “yeah obviously it works, can’t sell broken ferrets can you!” Lol never the less, I had to do some research and learn myself hahaha

How do you stopping biting I have two young Jill’s both well handled both have plenty of time out with their hutch exercising and playing. They have plenty of toys and tubes to play with but one of them bites extremely hard and shakes drawing blood sometimes ,it’s only on the top of my forearm and only one arm not both. I used to own ferrets years ago and never had anything like it

Hi don’t know if you still reply to comments on this video but I have a question. I’ve got a couple of ferrets and they have free roam of the garden during the day (brick wall garden can’t get out). Live in a city. Just seen some Charlie’s walk across the back fence, didn’t come in the garden or show any interest in the garden. Are the foxes likely to come in and touch the ferrets ? I wanna make sure they’ve got space to run around when they want to. Only leave their hutch open so they can free roam when I’m in but I don’t sit and watch them for all that time.
@southsomersetferretersfiel5202
Hi , I’d be very careful especially this time of year as foxes have cubs to feed , if I was you I’d keep the ferrets in or get a large enclosed run for them

To be honest I wish the U.K. would step up with ferret food. I love Wysong but you just can’t get it here in the U.K.. As for James wellbeloved the high wheat content is pretty concerning. But feeding raw is so confusing. I’ll just move to the US then 😂
@Jsarson1976
@Jsarson1976 2 года назад
The rawpetsupplies in the UK have labelled 80/10/10 commercial grinds some you don’t need to add heart and others you don’t. It can be that simple and sped not need to be confusing, there is a whole section on there website dedicated to raw feeding for ferrets. If you need any help going raw look me up and will help. Going raw was the best thing I ever did for my fuzzies. Wysong is a great brand but so expensive, don’t know why they haven’t tried to hit the ferret market in the UK as there is a massive gap in the UK as we don’t have a dried raw pet food for ferrets.

I know this is an old thread but just for anyone who wants to read this , raw meats for ferrets guys can be anything of an animal , liver,hearts ,burger mince , kidneys ,brains ,tongue ,rabbits ,quail chicken pieces , pigeons ,wild birds , deer , road kill as long as it’s not to old and rotten,better not to long been hit there is many ways to get food for ferrets ,ducks ,turkeys the list is many put your brains into gear ,really no excuses to find food for ferrets , high protein dog kibble as long as it’s not grain based .

Great advice. Have you done a video on the breeding cycle of Jill ferrets, I had two Jill sisters and one died after being in season. So I got a rescued vasectomised hob,as mate to mate her every time she came into season as I didn't want to breed, it kept her alive for 9 years. I know it's nothing to do with this video, but thought you could do a video on this subject. If you haven't already? New to your channel just subscribed because I love ferrets and I'm thinking of taking it up again. 😊👍
