What is the source of your information that Marshall Farms knowingly breeds and sells deaf ferrets? Or are you using the abbreviation "MF" to represent the now allegedly defunct Moonsong Ferretry which has admitted to breeding deaf ferrets and breeding practices prone to produce deaf ferrets? If so, it is not the usual interpretation of "MF" and you really should be more careful. -- Jim H [Posted in FML issue 3115]
