I turn to you all for help as Rocky has done a 180 in behavior. I went to try and admit him to a half way home for delinquent teenage ferret boys and even theeeeey turned him down. Of course it does not help that one said Sean is attached to him. Ok on with the question/problem. Rocky is a shelter baby.. we got him at 10-12 weeks of age from a shelter. He has a tiny bit of hard to detect neuro damage. He is huge...a huge MF boy weighing in at about almost four pounds in the summer and close to five in the winter. Despite that size,,,he was at the bottom wrung of the social ladder in our house since we've had him. He's very emotional compared to any other ferret I"ve had.... very. And he's a little ... well ummmmmmmmmm slow. Ok. We've noticed over the past five months he has really learned lots more ferret social skills rather than being so human oriented. We've noticed him catching up on some physical abilities as well. Now all the sudden this new confidence has gone awry. For the past couple weeks he picks on the second in command while he sleeps horribly. He waits for this laid back sweet ferret to sleep before he soaks him in forced baths, ear washings, and eventually biting his face bad (no blood or anything). He likes to walk around and pick on others as they sleep but focus's mainly on this one ferret. He is more rambunctious and ferret like when they are all awake and playing. But when they are awake he just acts like a rambunctious and very innocent kit. He like driving them all nuts lol. When they are awake...he is not acting like he is dominating anyone at all though. I did notice that. I dont know much about multi ferret households.... behaviors, etc. Rocky is now a year old and three months. I was just curious... does anyone know what he is doing?
