Shooting2 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Hi guys, Just after some advice about my ferret. My poly Jill came on heat one week ago and her vulva had swollen so yesterday (Saturday) i put her in my hobs cage and they mated, the following day (today, exactly one week from her vulva swelling up) I put her in the hobs cage again and they mated again without a problem and so I put her back Into her own cage afterwards. However I have just been reading that I should of waited two weeks after her vulva has swollen, is this true? Should I have waited? Will it effect the pregnancy/will she become pregnant? When I put her in my jobs cage they didnt fight but just mated how ferrets normally do. Any advice/help is much appreciated.

Shooting2 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Thanks guys I have already mated them for the two consecutive days, is this ok or should I put them togeather again. I'm mostly worried about wether or not I should of waited two weeks before I put them together. I only waited one week before mating them. Will things still turn out ok the way that I have done it. This is my first time mating/breeding ferrets and so still worried about what I have done/how it will turn out. Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee-kinsman Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 I'd just leave in with the hob for a few weeks until her vulva loses it's swell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
