Well, each fert is really unique in his or her own way.  I would not say
one is more affectionate than another.  Hmmm, try and make a ferret
standard and they will break it.  Nor have I seen a direct pattern of male
& males or males & females getting along better than the other.  If you are
getting a new baby and have a shelter near by, thats probley the best way
to go.  Most shelters let you bring your ferret in to help in the choosing.
-good luck with your fur kid and maybe soon to be.
 
Ants-Probley adds more protein to their diet.  Yummy.  I've heard the lime
juice, peper sauce and many other non-toxic things work, of course not of
these the ferret would approve of in his cage.  Yuk.
 
Bob Church-you explained the diff between domestication and training very
elequently.  Now if you breeders out their could just work on ferrets who
inherentable potty manners.
 
Dooks to all,
