Ann,
I am not flaming you, just stating a fact.  I do not believe Marcus
mentioned any where in his post that the ferrets were from a private
breeder
 
People that buy ferret kits together from a pet shop usually refer to
their ferrets as "Litter Mates" even when they are not.  That's like two
ferrets raised together from a very young age are usually considered
brother & sister, 2 sisters or 2 brothers.  That doesn't mean that they
came from a Private Breeder".  This is something that a rescue or former
rescue such as yourself should/would know.
