Hi! Sorry gad one other question i think somewhere you said you didn’t fix
joey but did something else? Just wondering if there is a better option
then fixing a male ferret thanks!
Hi! First I want to tell you that I really like your vids 🙂 great job.
Next, I have a question. I have 2 ferrets but I’m planning on starting to
train with a clicker. I know you said in a previous vid that you shouldn’t
be using a clicker when there are 2 ferrets to avoid the mix up. But what
if I put 1 ferret in the cage and train with the other one? Do you think
they would understand? Btw, a video in which you can teach us how to learn
a ferret to sleep/ rest on your lap would be great ;).
Its actually freeze dried liver you can buy at pet stores. My pet store
sells chicken and beef liver. Search the web for Pro-Treat Liver. That
should work. There are other brands though.
I should also mentioned I don’t give Joey a lot of the freeze dried liver.
I only give him 2 or 3 little pieces a day. Too much liver can upset his
tummy.
Do you know a substitute in liquid form I could use for training the
ferrets? One ferret of me always takes the snack and just runs off with it
to eat it somewhere else 🙂 she’s been doing it since I got her a year ago,
even when she eats in her cage ( maybe needed to fight for food when she
was a baby ? the breeder was really ‘bad’ for the ferrets and didn’t know
how to take care of them). The only liquid I know are the ferret tubes with
vitamins, but it contains lots of sugar as well :(.
Hi there. Joey is “fixed” with a chemical implant called deslorelin. It
lasts for 1.5-2 years and then he has to get another implant. This way, he
did not need to have surgery and it may help reduce his risk of getting
adrenal disease. I will try to make a video on this topic at some point :O)
Joey actually eats kibble (Wysong Ferret Epigen 90) and whole prey.
Luckily, he will eat pretty much whatever I give him. My 1st ferret though
was picky. I used to have to “teach” him to like treats. I would have to
mix it into his kibble for a week or so and then he liked it. Every ferret
is different. Some other healthy treats are scrambled egg, wysong dream
treats, and freeze dried liver.
You can definitely train both ferrets with a clicker if they are separated
during training. It might be best in another room so the one not training
can’t hear the clicks. I think when I was talking about them being confused
it was if they are litter training because odds are they will be running
around together in the same area. Does that help?
