Hi... I myself have at least 3 PV Ferts... they are well tempered, adorable and healthy... the oldest is 3 (bella)... I have Personally been to the establishment... very nice! its in Willow Hill, PA... I decided to investigate after the purchase of my second PeeVee Fert... (Stuey)... the people there were very knowledgeable and helpful... they had NO problem answering my questions and they were very honest about the expense issues of ferts... this may seem bad to some of you... but when I went (already owned by two of thier babies) I pretended to not know anything about ferts... I told them I was considering getting my first fert and wanted to know more about them as pets... It seemed like the best way to find out about their ummm... moral terpitude... (not sure what it says about mine)... anyway, they told me the truth about health issues, life expectancy and and they even told me that if I dint have ALOT of time to dedicate to a pet ferrets werent the best pet for me... it all added up to me as a bussiness that wanted to make money but also wanted their babies to have good lives. I ended up telling them about my ruse and they laughed and told me I wasnt the first to do it... (*felt better*)... I really enjoy the babies I have gotten from them... and I have another who is almost 8, she's old but has not health issues to speak of... (hepa)... I am pretty sure she is PV, as well. (no tattoos and in PA that usually means PV if they are bought from a store and she was). anyway... here is a link to thier web site... they have adorable pics of some kits on the page... prepare to resist ferret math!! =O) http://www.pathvalleyfarm.com/ all in all... Id say they are a well maintained, honest bussiness... they are a bussiness though and they will continue breeding as long as people are buying... so as cute as they are... dont forget about shelters! =O) (they have Path Valley Babies there too!)
