I would really like to thank everyone for the responses to Male or Female.
Your information and insight helped me so much!  The females that I had
looked at were not babys persay, but rather anywhere from 6mo to 1 year old.
I assume they were either pre-owned and one girl I knew had been in the pet
shop for all of her nine months.  So I could imagine I would be nippy too if
I had been caged up without a mommy or daddy!
 
One person suggested to me that I check out a ferret shelter?  I do not know
of one here in Oklahoma city, but I will check and I will also call the
animal shelter as well and see if they can direct me.  Otherwise I will keep
checking out the pet stores.
 
And thanks to Karen who suggested that the reason the ferret that bit me
might have done so because of perfume.  I had never thought of that!  I
beleive I was wearing perfume.  And this girl did not nip, but bit so hard
as to draw blood and leave marks.  (still got em) My female I had before did
the same thing.  It was not a lick, lick, nip, but rather a bite, tug, and
bite down a little harder!  Next time I will forget the channel no.  5 when
I am ferret shopping and see what happens.
 
Thanks everyone
