Mine love their cornstarch peanuts. I've had them for 3 years now and haven't had any problems. They start to disinegrate as soon as they get wet. Just put your tongue to one. The ferrets end up with them stuck on theirs too. :-) Scooby was weighed on Saturday...... 616 grams! In 9 days he's gained almost 200 grams!!! (he weighed 424 when we picked him up). It is fun watching him interact with the others. Sometimes there will be 4-5 ferrets playing with him at the same time. He gets overwhelmed and takes off with them close behind. Boy he can circle fast when he gets going. Jumps right on the dogs (well he is trying to jump over but...). It's been a long time since we've had a baby in the house. Warm hugs to all. tle Troy Lynn Eckart Ferret Family Services http://www-personal.ksu.edu/~sprite/ffs.html http://www.geocities.com/Petsburgh/Haven/5481/ Please sign up to support our charity http://www.iGive.com/html/ssi.cfm?cid=46&mid=58395 [Posted in FML issue 2996]
