Thank you. Now is this strictly a behavioural issue (1st time mom jitters) or does it appear to run in genetic lines (nervous, high anxiety)? Would she be better with her next litter or would you spay her and opt for a different Jill? Is this a common problem? By preventing stress what would you suggest? Solitude, away from other ferret, limit human contact??? I've heard of the behaviour mentioned a few times but have never had the opportunity to discuss it, I'm very interested but am unsure if this is a topic for this forum.

[This question set is a blend of behavior and genetics with
a definite health issue so it is acceptable. It's not a training
question.
