what do you do to keep your ferrets fit some may laugh but ive seen unfit ferret out working only going trew part of sets cuz they are to tired my ones spend alot of time running round the garden with each other have there own run that goes along the side of there shed they also so have diffrent leavels to run up and down tubes and thing to clime on any more ideas would be great

what do your do

mine usally have the run of the yard when i got the dogs out, and i knock them together a wee maze type from drainage pipes the down spout type is the best i find, helps keep them active, have seen on dvds people making massive mazes out of guttering.

have also tried them balls on string (someone bought if for me ) and the ferrets paid no interest to it so its now been eaten by RIP

guilty im affraid been ferreting 42 years and i dont bother to keep my ferrets very fit the mrs lets them out on the odd time but dont really bother

i actually take mine for a walk on leads and harness. gets some funny looks and comments.

pets at home sell the harness and lead set for the ferrets. i was gonna get one for some sunday morning and walk the ferrets out to the car for the neighbours to see

you should try it Kev ,we have cars slow up , swerve in the road. Even had some old dear ask what breed dogs they where!!

dunno if mine would walk on them tho.


a mate of mine has recently got his kennels built with 2 drainage systems in it on thats not connected to the sewer and one that is , and just added a wire run and he has his ferrets a massive exercize run. am sure ryanboxer will put some pics on of it.

thanks for the compliment kevin i've been at dublin all day so will get pic's of my run tomarrow
