Hello everyone. I am new on the FML. It was recommended to me by my friend Liz Blackburn who had Fang. A couple months ago I bought a ferret. His name is Pez (like the candy). When I bought him he was 7 weeks old so that means he is about 2 and a half months old. He's about the color of silver. The surprising thing about Pez is when I took him in to get his distemper shot the vet noticed that he had a micro chip in him. We didn't have it implanted. In my oppinion I don't think Pez could have had an owner because he was so young when I purchased him. We've talked to the shop we bought him from, and they said they'll look into it. I hope it's nothing serious, but when I look at him I always wonder why he had a chip in him. Rachel Carson [Posted in FML issue 3615]
