Hi Doug, It sounds like Tuck's exhibiting pretty normal "first ferret" behaviour. My Twiglet was about a year old when i brought home baby Pixie, and Twiglet scruffed her, dragged her around, made her cry,etc. I FREEKED out and actually called a ferret emergency hotline at about 1 am that night!! The nice (sleepy) lady told us this was normal, that Twiglet was just establishing his dominance and it would work itself out soon. So i did what you're doing, let them play together only under supervision at first, and after a few days or so everything was hunky dory. Hang in there, before you know it they'll be inseperable!
