>I would appreciate some comments on this habit Renegade has. He will be >playing, dancing & generally dooking then all of a sudden stop to do a >quick chew on his rump / hind end or tail. Well, Rocket does this too...mid war dance quite frequently. I thought maybe he had fleas but havent seen any, just gave him a bath and no vermin at all. I think he is just an itchy ferret. Maybe his skin is dry? We try and use a coat conditioner on Rocket, maybe that would help. As long as it isnt persistant itching I dont think you need to worry about it, especially if the vet saw nothing wrong. Happy ferreting!
