Hi everyone, Thanks to everyone who sent us email about obtaining ferrets in Australia - We got a cute little boy and girl last Sunday. I don't know what the colour is called (Anyone know?) They are a fawny colour with a dark brown mask, and feet and brown eyes. Being protective new parent's we'd like to know if anyone else's ferrets chew ears (not ours-each others). Our female ("Zeke") constantly chews her brothers ears when he's trying to sleep - she'd chew them right off if we didn't stop her! They are only eight weeks old so maybe this is a baby trait? Apart from that they seem to love each other heaps. Commiserations about Toons to Scott - we learnt about hot ferrets in a hurry, on the way home from buying them. In the car they started to pant and sleep with their mouths open. We got the airconditioning on quick smart! Talk to ya later.
