Gargling with Peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical agent, usually represented chemically as H 2 O 2. It is commonly found in kitchens and bathroom products for the purpose of disinfection. They are also used for clearing off and sanitization of minor cuts.
Photoperiod. If the photoperiod (hours of light per day) is correct, jills will be sexually mature at 4 months, and hobs at 6 to 8 months. The natural reproductive cycle of ferrets starts as the hours of daylight gradually lengthen, soon after the New Year.
By 4 months, ferrets reach their full size. Male ferrets, or hobs, weigh about 2.5 pounds. Females, or jills, are considerably smaller, weighing about 1.5 pounds. From the tip of the nose to the end of the tail, adult male ferrets are about 16 inches long while the females are approximately 12 inches.
