Hi every-one......:) I'm new to this list & I have just bought a 8 week old kit. I do not really no much about ferrets & would like some advice. The problem i am having or perhaps it's not really a problem is the way my kit walks.....I have only had him two days and he tends to pull himself along on his belly, all his legs are moving but he hardly lifts his stomach or chin from the ground,... is this because i have not had him long enough & he is nervous,very young & in a strange home, or could it be something more serious, he is by the way a male & i was only told his age was 8 weeks i'm not really sure,.....He is about 7-8 inches long from shoulder to hind legs. Please help me as the breeder said if i have any problems i can swap him & I obviously do not want to leave it to long, plus I am very worried. Thanx in advance.... Gavin Weedon......
