I've used the velcro and Marshall Farms "H" harnesses. I don't really care
for then velcro ones. I do like the MF ones. I have a female +/- 1.5
pounds and a male +/- 3 pounds. The MF harness is fully adjustable for
both. I believe it will fit a female smaller than mine and I know it will
fit a bigger male. The harnesses (all harnesses) have to be snug or the
ferrets will wriggle out of them. I have had no problems with the MF
harnesses. No escapes, freedom of movement, etc.
