Randie wrote about Petco switching from MF to a breeder in Canada for its ferrets. Petco has been using Real Canadian Ferrets for some time in the Seattle area. The ferrets look as you describe them: Wider faces, somewhat broader bodies, one blue line tattoo in the ear rather than two dots. They seem to be generally healthy, robust ferrets, but realistically any breeder that produces ferrets at the scale that they can supply Petco isn't a small, intimate operation. I wasn't able to find any website for them. Maybe someone else will be able to. Kevin [Posted in FML 6027]
