Bootz and Daisy are our newest babies, and they are both 6 months old.
Daisy constantly bites and chases our feet and bites them very hard.  Now,
I had that same problem with my other 4 fuzzies when they were this young,
but when I would say NO in a firm voice they would learn and stop.  This
is not working with Daisy, so I am turning to you, other ferret owners to
see what you can suggest trying.  When we push her away she thinks we are
playing and comes back at our feet and really chomps down.  I do not want
to "Plick" her in the nose, as that is not an option for us, so if you
could suggest trying something other than "Plicking" the nose and the firm
"NO" which she is not responding to we would appreciate it.  I know that it
is because she is young that she is biting, but when our others were young
they responded and learned from the firm "NO" that was said.  Thank you in
advance for your suggestions as they are appreciated.
