Hi everyone! I have a 12 week old black eyed white that I've had for 2 weeks now. I've had many ferrets before but this one seeks out your skin and bites hard. She sniffs around your feet and if you let her sniff she usually ends up biting. I've tried the squirt gun on her when she is getting too interested" in my feet/shoes or hands. Right now I do the time out in the cage as that is the only thing that she will stay in. As I pick her up after she bites she bites my hands so hard it is scary. She has made me afraid of her. My hands have puncher wounds all over. She latched onto my arm and now I have a big bruise besides the bite marks. I try to pick her up sometimes to show her my hands are not bad, and pet her. But you can tell she isn't relaxed and is tense. I've never had a ferret act this way. Usually the may nibble when they are young but this is mean enough I start to cry. It hurts bad physically and makes me feel bad she doesn't trust me. I NEed help. I've done some research on the Internet but I can't keep her away from my feet. Any ideas?
