Ferret breeding part 1

  • I was given my very first ferret as a young lad. It was a nicotine albino female called Whitey and, like a lot of ferrets of her generation, she was a real grafter. Possessing a gargantuan prey drive, she would work as if her life depended on it - unlike many of her modern-day counterparts, the majority of whom haven't a day's work in them, never mind a full season's graft.
    To some, these comments may be controversial, but I think it is a realistic assessment built upon decades of rabbiting experience. I have had the pleasure to walk out with ferreters young and old alike the length and breadth of our country, which has resulted in this sobering conclusion.
    And so, to protect and promote the future of ferreting we need to redress this weakness that has swept through many ferret lines and strains in recent decades. Only those who work their ferrets will know what a harsh environment these animals work in and the punishment they can receive in the "violent" lagomorphal world. Those handlers will understand how important breeding is.

    Very true! There should be a working ferret gene pool syndicate to constantly improve the genetics of the modern day working ferret, i understand there used to be these in the 80s

    I have a 2-3 year old ferret that believe it or not I coughs in a snere. I have been using him not for 1 year and he seems to get some rabbits. He is as tame as hell and a pleasure to work with however I never seem to come back with more than 5 rabbitts. I don't know if this is just the warrens I work with or if it's the ferret. I didn't know if you can tell how good a ferret is at rabbiting just by its everyday personality or behavior

    Hey, do you know any breeders down in Wiltshire? Nearest one I can find is in Wales :( I don't want to go through a breeder because I would prefer uneutered ferrets.

    If only I could get a few over here in the USA, the pet trade has absolutely destroyed the integrity of the ferret as a tool for hunting. You won't find two good ones in twenty. Maybe a solid two out of one hundred. In the 80s there were still some decent and gritty little guys but no more. Sad sad day here indeed.

      Key word PET trade your looking in the wrong place! Ask around with local farmers and pest control you'll find someone!
