I read on a website(can't remember which one though, sorry) that because MF spays and neuters their animals so young that the males don't get that "large male look" to them. I have to disagree. I have a MF male ferret, and he is fixed, and he's huge. I also have an older MF female and she and my male are in wonderful health. It was also stated that their dispositions were not very good but my babies are very lovable and friendly. I'm sorry, I can't remember the site's name. But MF is a breeder like any other. I truly don't understand why they have such a bad rep. Angie M. (owned by Abby and Taz) [Posted in FML issue 3446]
