Thanks for the replies concerning Garps canines, I'm checking and he still has both. As to Paul, you are right in that it's a marvelous thing to catch a baby tooth! I still, and always will have one of Willie's which fell out while he was in my hands chewing on a finger! (ever-so-gently of course) It sure is neat having babies around the house again, they are both getting along very well with the big kids and training seems easier with the other four helping out! I do have one small problem though, Willie, my hob, wants to mate with them both and is very gentle...it's just that they keep trying to tell him, "Hey, we are BOYS, just because we're small doesn't mean anything you big oof!" He has run of the house and shares a cage with my three gibs, is 10 months old and fully into his first season, but is my most mellow ferret of all, so I had no plans to have him neutered before at least one breeding. I need one more show to get his points for Masters and then will breed him. I am a little worried about the kits, though. Should or could I spray them with something or just keep them separate? thanks....... Michele and the gang! [Posted in FML issue 0842]
