Your baby ferret (Marley) may alrerady be neutered and descented - where
did you get him from, and does he have blue dots tattooed on his ear?
Ferrets are not different breeds, but there can be a big variety of sizes
between ferrets - generally males are bigger than females, but there are
some males that may be smaller than a big female.  Making sure they are
healthy is the most important thing!
