I just acquired a new baby ferret, Daisy-female sable, and had a few questions. Does anyone know when baby ferrets get their baby teeth/when they lose them/when they get their adult teeth. The pet store said the babies were 6-8 weeks old. From the postings on the FML that seems very young. However, she has all her baby teeth and her permanent teeth are coming in. In fact I was a little worried to see that she had two sets of canines with no indication of the temporary set coming out. I was also worried about introducing her to Squirt, my 2 year old female sable. They actually get along great outside. Unfortunately, inside is another story. Squirt is much more aggressive toward the new baby, though she doesn't actually hurt her. I guess it will just take time. One more question. The baby really likes to bite, though usually not very hard. How much biting should be tolerated? We would like her to be able to play with us and bite gently, but we don't want to encourage bad biting behavior. Lisa and Noah Squirt and Daisy P.S. I probably should introduce my fiance, Noah -- the big ferret toy. (excuse my faux pas for not introducing him earlier) [Posted in FML issue 1605]
