I continue to see discussion and questions occasionally about ferret
weights.  With 36 of the little fuzzies running through our house, we have
quite a variety of sizes.  So just for fun I weighed my biggest and smallest
of each gender:
 
Females - smallest                        Females - largest
 
Pepper (sable) just under 1 1/4 lbs.      Romey (light silver)  3 1/4 lbs.
                                          Natasha (silver mitt)  3 lbs.
 
 
Males - smallest                          Males - largest
 
Parming (albino) 2 lbs.                   Timmy (sable)  4 1/2 lbs.
                                          Dinky (sable mitt)  4 lbs.
 
 
All these ferrets are healthy, with no illness affecting weights, and all
are spayed/neutered.
