Marshall Farms is located in New York state.
 
I am a long time resident of the Reno/Sparks Nevada area.  There are only a
few pet stores in the area I would ever recommend to anyone.  Pet R Us, 702
747-8400 Has the best pet store environment for live animals I have ever
seen....zoo quality, IMHO.
 
Pets Unlimited, 702 329-1752, a very clean and caring store
Pettin' Place, 702 323-3348, the original pet store in Reno.  Linus runs a
first class store.
 
Stores to stay away from: Little Wilderness..sometimes his ferts go 12 hours
without food or water.  He has had the Humane Society called on him a number
of times.
 
All three of the stores I recommend carry ferrets and have a full line of
ferret supplies.
