We are fostering a couple of ferrets for our shelter and one is an 8 month
old who likes to nip.  'Baby Elephant' is not vicious-just seems like he's
playing.  When we pick him up we've learned not to hold him by any skin
whatsoever.  We'd like to help him get over this habit (?) and would welcome
suggestions.  We won't go the 'nose flicking' route, but if anyone has any
other suggestions, we'd appreciate it alot!!
 
Thanks,
Jim and Laura
