Hello!
 
Two weekends ago I met my first ferret.  Living in FFZ California, I had to
go out of state to meet them, but it was more than worth it.  Having been
lurking on the FML since March, I had an idea of what to do and not to do
when handling a kit.  I was VERY mindful of my nose!
 
I have a question about the ferret face.  When you look at a ferret, on each
side of the nose (snout?) is a "bump" next to each eye.  Is this a gland or
a duct?  If it is neither, does it serve a purpose?
 
Thanks,
Irinia
