Believe me- unless you are breeding for the betterment of the species, then you are no better than any other byb who does it to make a buck. You put your Jill at risk for nothing more than your own misguided beliefs. You can keep her intact, hopefully avoiding adrenal, and still use Jill jabs or a des implant.

Please do not do this to your little girl. It is going to take some money to keep your all your babies healthy and their mother. Do not be irresponsible. Open your mind to peoples comments------U do not want to be sorry down the road when you look back at what you have done... Just use your money to feed what ferrets u have and keep them happy.
Pregnancy is hard on the body, My mother had 8 children, she lost her teeth long time ago--way before senior years. I attribute it to the pregnancies robbing her body of nutrients. also my last sibling was born with his intestines out.
I am sure your little girl would appreciate you preventing her having litter after litter. it is sad that she will not be able to tell u.

unfortunately if she has litter after litter she will die ( this is where the old phrase if its not bred it will die came from infact they did die young from over breeding !) also have you considered what happens if a brother mates a sister ? if you are keeping the whole litter and keeping it intact ? it can and does happen a jill may come in early without you realising it I breed for myself yes I keep whole litters and I see whole litters die within a few years of each other could you take the pressure of that ? I have bred for a lot of years not to make any money but to improve the longevity and healthy of the ferret I would be a very rich woman if I had sold my ferrets to people in different parts of the world who have asked but I have more respect for my animals and what becomes of them I have homed a very very select number to people I trust but they are mentored by me for three years beforehand and I am the one who offers no one asks and I get monthly updates reports on health issues ect and everything is documented until the day they die when you breed you have a responsibility to your breeding animal and if a problem occurs then that line must be stopped how do you know on which side the problem is if you have no background on your breeding stock ? or how do you know the kits your ferret produces wont turn into breeding machines themselves ? please think long and hard is it worth the death of these jills ? and a lot of heartache ? take care bye for now
