I have spoken to MF directly many, many times over the past few years.
They themselves told me that their ferrets go to a distributor. They gave
me the name of the distributors that are holding areas for all MF ferrets
in the southeast here. They gave me the name and number of my specific
one. I spoke to our distributor and they listed all the petstores in this
part of the state that they deliver to for MF. MF ferrets DO NOT go
directly from NY to the southeast. On the website itself, is a page
listing all the holdling areas, distributors, for the nation for MF. I
wish I had it now to show you. Its public. I"m sure someone on the FML
will remember or know. Tara? Katie remember we had to track for our
area during Katies adv scare?
Whenever I asked managers here about their MF kits, they swear they come
from Marshall Farms in NY...directly on the plane. Thats what some truly
believe. Its just lack of information on their part. They are just
equating the delivery (from the distrubor) with MF. The papers say MF
yes. But you can call our distributor for this area "Exotic Pets", and
they can tell you which stores have accounts with them, delivery dates,
numbers etc.. We had to go through them to get a baby ferret once on a
specific day here in Chattanooga ... Marshall Farms put us in touch with
them so that we could. . Its no secret. They share this information
freely.
