To Molab. New South Wales has a large and active ferret club that sometimes gets overwhelmed with rescues. You may also want to go to www.waffs.org.au for the WA Ferret Society site for info on ferrets in Australia. In Australia, ferrets are only rare in Queensland and Northern Territory where they are banned. (Bureaucracy gone mad) I know that the idea of breeding ferrets seems to be a wonderful thing, but believe me, there is more to it than meets the eye. I would suggest that you have your ferrets sterilised once they are old enough and enjoy them, learn from them and find a ferret knowledgeable vet. I can tell that your heart is in the right place and that you only mean well for the ferret population, but do a little more research, (ferrets should never be bred before they are 2 years old) and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy the ferrets in your care. Best wishes for you and your ferrets, Shirley [Posted in FML issue 4413]
