risho Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 hi jedi . let them play until tired, then you can pet them. they have a mad half hour where they nip you constantly especially on your stocking feet when they do the open mouth ferret dance.also much calmer after beeing fed. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jediwarrior Posted September 4, 2006 Author Share Posted September 4, 2006 hi our ferrets do the ferret dance for wot seems like hours may be cos there young but ur right it is very entertaning indeed. Just wish they would sit wi us they do come out of there cage alot. And they do eat alot get fed twice a day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jediwarrior Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 well our ferrets are doin well but i think jack our male feret is startin to to randy so thinkin of having him done as he is startin to grab our female round the neck. the only trouble were havin is gettin them to come to us when there out runnin round the house as they stay in door but live in there \cage till we let them out any ideas on how to get them to come to us they are about 5-6 months old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
