I am new to ferrets and just so all of you feel safe I am not attempting to breed ferrets at all. I dont feel like I know enought or have had enough hands on experince to attempt to breed. My question is that if female ferrets die without breeding what happens once they are past breeding age? A kind of ferret menopause? Just curious. Thanks in advance for any who reply!!
