Many people have asked how I have such tame ferrets or how do I nip train them. In this short video I try to show and explain how I handle my ferrets from 7 weeks old.
Really like the methods of training you are promoting here. When I got my first ferret (an adult rescue & biter) I was told to discipline him - scruffing, time out, yell No at him etc. It just made him worse and he was very afraid. So I switched to showering him with love and attention, giving him treats to lick off my fingers, lots of time outside the cage to run around, playing with him with a toy instead of my hands. It took a few months but in the end he was just a big sook, gentle with everyone including young children. My 2nd ferret was 10 weeks old and had never been handled. She backed into the corner of the cat carrier and showed her teeth to me the whole drive home. First thing I did was put some olive oil on my fingers and she licked it off. She has been my best bud ever since, never nipped, bitten, very gentle.
urbanrat84 my girl is a little Kent she's got pain trauma from before 3 weeks old as I bred a Jill with my hob (her parents) he was 2 and was easily nipped trained as he was hissing and facebook rescues said he was feral but his daughter is more feral and doesn't learn especially her father was trained by being wrapped in a towel no feets exposed always using a tone saying I'm the boss she only had a scratch at her yooha and been desexed since and she's still how she is >.>
watched 100's of videos recently after getting my first two Jill's... this is the best...calmest and most experienced. thanks for the vid mate. appreciate it and made me feel more relaxed
Look at their little feet haha awww. Had to have my ferret put to sleep this morning (terminal illness) and this cheered me right up, thanks for posting :)
Your setup is AMAZING!!!!!!!!! GOD I wish I lived in tbe UK.... we get marshall ferrets here and it's cold in the winter n very hot in summer so I am scared they will get sick outdoors. I envy u man! ❤
If I happened to get a ferret(s) at a pet store, would they be 8 weeks or a lot older? Also, would they be super mean because their in a pet store and not really handled properly there?
Having never bought them from a pet store I couldn't really say. Best thing you can do is visit the pet store and ask them everything you need to know before buying one.
I've just gotten my ferrets from the RSPCA. They're 3 years old and have had several homes before and I'm not sure how they were treated, but they certainly seem like they've never been nip trained. They bite very hard, locking down and drawing blood. I did not know ferrets saw you as a threat when you move your hand back a forward quickly (I do it a lot because I'm scared of the biting) but that's really good to know. Thank you. 😁
You cant really nip train them as such. Its just a case of handling them as much as possible. The more human interaction they get from an early age the better, Your ferrets wont have been handled much when they were young and the reason they have had several homes is because they bite and no one will have been patient enough to put the time in needed. The best thing I can suggest you do is to pick them up under they're front legs and be positive when you do it. So in one movement. when you pick them up like that its hard for them to be able to bite that hand. Then stroke them with your other hand and talk to them like you would a cat or dog. If you do this for a short while each day they will get use to your voice and get use to you picking them up. Also when you feed them stroke them gently while they are eating if possible.
No offense but I hâte those people who flick there nose it’s so small there head is small you could really hurt them. I have 3 I had 4 but my female had cancer.
I know this is an older video years old I face but thought to keep this video going it needs some activity happening lol , I agree with you on handling and one other thing and that is having them well fed , hungry ferrets will go for the chomp of a hand , found this out from ferrets I received from other person they were hungry and very bitey, a few feeds and handling they came good and love being handled now , awesome videos mate great job.👍
I once had a ferret which was biting very much at the beginning until I found out that she was deaf! She could not hear me saying "hello" and was biting just because she was afraid of being attacked or so. Then I started to move my hand in front of her face to grasp her attention instead of touching her. After a while we created a sign language including "come here", "good girl", "no" e.g. I had the feeling her friend was not too happy with the situation, because I recognized less interaction between the two ferrets, although they loved each other, played and slept together. Every time she was running through my appartement she needed to wear a little bell - from the chocolate bunnies 😂. Unfortunately she tended to fall asleep so I could not hear and sometimes not find her. Only when I moved out I figured out where her secret place was. She could never fully relax when I held or petted her, up to a few weeks before her death. Finally I had all her trust and heart. RIP little girl.❤ Would I get another deaf ferret. Yes, no doubt!
I would say that year. In the UK we normally start ferreting from September onwards. So if they are born that may they would be around 4 months old. I wouldn't recommend taking them any younger than that.
hahaha sooo many ferrets at once that would be a dream for me. its just that to do that id need a lot of $$$$$$$ not just to get them but to care for them properly and take care of whatever illnesses they may get later on in life. im so jealous of you sir hahaha but also happy for you.
Warning. .....don't allow them in the house while your just wearing a dressing gown ....mine took advantage of me looking at my phone and bit me on my nuts !!!! Lol
Hi. Anyone can help me with my new ferret? He is 10 weeks old hob. We bring him to home 4 days ago, in the first night he was calm and quiet but from the next morning he is just fear of everything. He just bent his back walk around and worries about everything. This is normal? I even don't want to play with him otherwise he is just getting more angry. Im not sure how can I handle.
Those ferrets aren't showing affection, they're obviously going for the jugular. Haha. Never seen a setup like that before. Looks great and very enriching.
R u tired of getting bit go over to Petco and by your self Some Bitter Apple Spray, its just Apple Cider vinger. So after u go buy that spray the bitter Apple where ever he bites. After your fuzzys bites u a couple times he or she won't like the taste and thata
I've had ferrets for years but my very first ferret I let him run around the living room so I blocked a few things so he couldn't escape. But I forgot to block the chimney breast it shot straight up it took ages get him down and I still have that ferret
Iv breeder ferrets all my life and trained nasty ones for ppl n I just tap them on the nose and I get no problems.better than shuvinf ya finger down a kits mouth.
The advice of "just handle them" when people ask how to keep animals from biting is honestly such an overlooked truth. I feel like people in general just have this weird misunderstanding of animals and don't realize that handling them and interacting with them is how to solve about half the problems people have with the way animals act. I've never had ferrets but I've kept hamsters for about ten years now, and while they're very very different animals from ferrets, people are constantly asking me "don't they bite? aren't they unfriendly? etc." and the answer is always no, not if you handle them. Of course there are animal species that aren't friendly and do poorly when handled but these critters are not one of them. So many people just do not care about animals enough and they don't make an effort and it's really refreshing to see people like you who understand these very simple responses to problems people have with animals that should honestly just be common sense.
AHumanCalledSmithy nearly all domesticated animals have become domesticated because of human contact and interaction. Alot of people think that some animals are already domesticated from birth. But the simple act of interaction from an early age can make all the difference
Omg so helpful! When my dog nips I put my hand in her jaw so she can’t bite me but if she does it didn’t hurt! Thanks so much! I want a ferret so bad!!
one of my old jills used to stay in my barbour pocket when I used to go out ferreting I used to have an old hat in there and she would just wrap up in it and you could go anywhere with her and she wouldn't leave unless she was on a set with some scent about, better than a dog marking lol
Just got 2 there lovely but very nippy 12wk old but are bring blood I'm handling them every and playing with them but do just bite and not let go have you any tips and will they grow out of it eventually as I've got young children and want them to be a big part of the family as there housed indoors. Thanks any advice would be welcome
Gemma Burns did you get them at 12 weeks old? if so it's probably because they've not been handled much when they were younger. It might take a bit of time to get them use to you and being handled. Keep handling them as much as you can. If they are biting quiet hard you could try wearing a pair of gloves.
Rural Pest Control Whitwell hi I just got a new ferret (boy) and he is being good so far but he it trying to bite because he never used to be cared by his old owner how do I stop it?
Just watched them both, if you want to get them something fun to play with, get them some bendy pipe, and twist it into different shapes. The longer the pipe the better.
I have a male and female ferret. The male is more aggressive and frequently bites the female's ears and throat when playing, and goes so far that she squeals often. How do I go about discouraging this behavior so that he doesn't hurt her since he is larger?
Some One none of my ferrets are pets, I work them all. I live not far from York. I don't know where you could get a ferrets from near you, try Google or a local Facebook page.
My dad kept them for hunting purposes for years! They seem big ferrets or is it the camera angles! My you do have a big ferret! Ha ha jokes aside they do seem big! Was the jill in there with the kits or are they all kits?
Jamie Grieve the Jill is Betty thd one that goes down my top. She is small compared to two of her hobs I kept. If you watch the video of me adding a new pipe, I show all my ferrets at the end. I have another 3 now 👍
Omg. I've never seen as gorgeous ferrets, as these ones are! Their really beautiful. Like their "wide" / muscular look. Their not 'skinny' looking or tiny in a size. 😍 Most of the ferrets, that I've seen irl are those kind of, that are tinier. And their color.. Oh dear. 💖 Absolutely gorgeous lil creatures! Words can't even describe, how much I fell in love with them. ☺ Everything good for You and Your ferrets! 🌸🌼
They are left way too early here at the mills in the usa I believe in the UK they are left more around 11 weeks? Is that correct. I think that is much more appropriate. At the mills they try to get them out so that they are cuter to humans then they will make more money..but then they will have behavioral issues in the future! it really sucks what they do for money!
I have a ferret who is 12 month old and I have had him for 1 month now I see him every day and i play with him and discipline him when he's been naughty he is still biting when I scruff him he moves his head and bites me hard which caused me to bleed and my hand went purple I need a lot of help when I bought him he was bought from a hunter and I only want him for a pet can u give me any advise ??
I just got a 2 month old ferret she isn't interested in my other older ferret hes a good boy about 8 months need advice on this lil girl she gets scruffed n she bites even harder breaking skin the petstore I got her at told me she bites alot I thought maybe if she gets know me n my older ferret shed stop or at least it phase her to learn not to shes been biting me nonstop ignoring every trick like scruffing saying no firmly hissing like some ppl say
Valentine Sol Deliora it will take time for the 2 ferrets to get to know each other and get along. They may never like each other but just tolerate each other. As long as they are not proper fighting then they should be alright. Only thing you can do with the Jill to stop her of biting is to keep handling her. You need to keep picking her up, stroke her like you would a cat, and talk to her. Try not to shout as this will only scare her and make her worse. She needs to get use to you and know that everything is OK when you pick her up and handle her.
Great to see how you do this. I got a hob and jill this week, and the hob is really nippy. I need to sort it out! Also trying to get them to use the litter tray
but what if they bite rlly deep? sometimes i just let my ferret crawl over me and once he bit in my arm rlly deep to a point it starts bleeding. its hard to ignore the biting bcs it hurts quit a lot
If they are still biting that hard, don't let them be in a situation where they are able to bite you. You need to keep handling them until you are confident that they aren't going to bite you. If your unsure then don't let them crawl over you or near your face. All ferrets can and will bite. You've just got to know the animal and gain trust.
Ashley Inked you need to separate males from from females when they come into season. if you breed the pregnant jill will need to be on her own until her kits are weaned off.
That's the dream, to have that many ferrets crawl all over me.
Danielle Nicolle it can be arranged lol
Pepper Mint yeah
same

Luke Palmer about 10 miles east of York. I don't have any ferrets for sale at the moment, but I will be breeding again this year.
Ive always wanted ferrets😍😍❤
Cant wait until the day I can snuggle with and play with my own ones♡
Got any yet?
@@lewisevans4655 sadly no, but once Ive figured out adulthood a bit better I will definitely 😍

That's a real shame :-(. there will be plenty of young ones around at the moment if you wanted a replacement.
Thank you I'll keep your little guys in mind for the future.
Ah, no!
You're very nice to your ferrets. It's nice to see. Rough treatment is totally unnecessary.
Geoffrey totally agree 👍
Geoffrey yes it will only make things worse and cause fear / behaviour problems
Your setup is AMAZING!!!!!!!!! GOD I wish I lived in tbe UK.... we get marshall ferrets here and it's cold in the winter n very hot in summer so I am scared they will get sick outdoors. I envy u man! ❤
Thanks 👍
The whole rules and use of ferrets is completely different in the UK compared to the US.
Wow! That's a lot of ferrets!! They obviously love you to pieces because everytime you put one down, they walk right back on top of you again! :)
ha ha yes they are well looked after
I love men who love animals as much as me

No offense but I hâte those people who flick there nose it’s so small there head is small you could really hurt them. I have 3 I had 4 but my female had cancer.
no offense taken ;-)
Should the Hobbs be separate from jills and does it matter how many you’ve got as long as it’s enough room
Hobs and Jill's only need separating when they're in season unless they've been done
I had a ferret called Betty! We had, Donald, Angel, Betty, Jasper!
I currently have charlie, betty, whima, bonnie, clyde, barnie, rosie, and new addition billy. Daisy and daphne have gone to a new home
It's a lovely set up for the ferrets and clean I've had ferrets most of my life just love em
Thanks
Thank you for this video. We just got our first ferret, sadly we are in the US so had to get a Marshall
No problem 👍. Good luck with your first ferret. I've heard a lot of bad things about Marshall's

Those are beautiful kits, so fluffy
They are left way too early here at the mills in the usa I believe in the UK they are left more around 11 weeks? Is that correct. I think that is much more appropriate. At the mills they try to get them out so that they are cuter to humans then they will make more money..but then they will have behavioral issues in the future! it really sucks what they do for money!
In the UK kits don't leave their mum until they are 8 weeks old
I have a ferret who is 12 month old and I have had him for 1 month now I see him every day and i play with him and discipline him when he's been naughty he is still biting when I scruff him he moves his head and bites me hard which caused me to bleed and my hand went purple I need a lot of help when I bought him he was bought from a hunter and I only want him for a pet can u give me any advise ??
Fxck_Its_Cait try feeding him before you handle him
I was wandering if these type of ferrets would make good house pets, without working them in the field?
Yes of course there's no difference
I just got a 2 month old ferret she isn't interested in my other older ferret hes a good boy about 8 months need advice on this lil girl she gets scruffed n she bites even harder breaking skin the petstore I got her at told me she bites alot I thought maybe if she gets know me n my older ferret shed stop or at least it phase her to learn not to shes been biting me nonstop ignoring every trick like scruffing saying no firmly hissing like some ppl say
Valentine Sol Deliora it will take time for the 2 ferrets to get to know each other and get along. They may never like each other but just tolerate each other. As long as they are not proper fighting then they should be alright. Only thing you can do with the Jill to stop her of biting is to keep handling her. You need to keep picking her up, stroke her like you would a cat, and talk to her. Try not to shout as this will only scare her and make her worse. She needs to get use to you and know that everything is OK when you pick her up and handle her.
You can tell you really care about/ for those little bundles of joy.
Of course 👍
At last, someone who knows what there talking about ,Excellent advice thank you!
no problem, thanks for the comment
your ferret cage is sick do a tour of it
Charlotte Martin there already is one. Video of me fitting a new pipe.
Great to see how you do this. I got a hob and jill this week, and the hob is really nippy. I need to sort it out! Also trying to get them to use the litter tray
but what if they bite rlly deep? sometimes i just let my ferret crawl over me and once he bit in my arm rlly deep to a point it starts bleeding. its hard to ignore the biting bcs it hurts quit a lot
If they are still biting that hard, don't let them be in a situation where they are able to bite you. You need to keep handling them until you are confident that they aren't going to bite you. If your unsure then don't let them crawl over you or near your face. All ferrets can and will bite. You've just got to know the animal and gain trust.
can you leave the father's in with the mother and babies or do you have to pull him
Ashley Inked you need to separate males from from females when they come into season. if you breed the pregnant jill will need to be on her own until her kits are weaned off.
