Over the past few months, I have been looking to buy two ferrets. I
recently went into a pet store and found two kits that were very friendly
(they were even kissing us). I went back tonight, and found two new kits.
I was a little disappointed. When I tried to take them out of the cage they
both bit me, and attached themselves to my hand. I was finally able to get
them out without them attacking me. None of the books and articles I have
read have addressed this behavior. I realize that they are kind of cramped
in 10 gallon tank, but is this biting normal behavior. I was trying to
figure out which pair were normal the biting or non-biting. Could it have
anything to do with the size of the tank? I would prefer to buy from a
breeder in NJ, but the closest I can find is in PA (about 5 hours away). I
am looking to get them this weekend, so please respond as quickly as
possible.
TIA,
jason
