Funny.  I am an AFA member & I have never been asked to alter my ferrets.
It is not stated in their membership guidelines that altering is required.
I sell my kits with alter contracts - AFA has never suggested they had a
problem with that one way or another.  I know several breeders belonging to
the AFA - many judges - that do the same.  It has never been written in any
show packet, rule book, or exhibitor guidelines (at least that I have seen)
that all ferrets must be altered - or the very least that all ferrets being
sold must be altered.  They just regulate age & shot requirements.
