I just want to let you all know that I saw the LARGEST Marshall Farm ferret last week - he was 15 months old, chocolate, and 5 pounds (US). He was a big pushover too - intimidated by the females who were only 1.5 pounds. the family picked out a Canadian girl to be his buddy - and at last report, they were best buddies.
