What happens if a female ferret is not bred when she comes into heat? Why does this happen?
When a female ferret comes into heat, she will remain in heat if she is not bred. The breeding cycle is
controlled by induced ovulation, meaning the eggs are not released into the womb for fertilization until mating
has taken place. The continued production of estrogen during the heat period can lead to aplastic anemia.
The seriousness of this ailment is the females' loss of weight and the deterioration of her general condition. If
the animal is not bred and she remains in heat, she could die. One should consult one's veterinarian about the
proper course of action, which could be breeding, spaying, or bringing out of heat artificially.
