For all you baby ferret owners out there. Just wanted to give everyone a little hope and inspiration concerning kits that bite. I have four little kids ranging from 15weeks to 2 and a 1/2 years. None of my older ferrets are bitters although they were all known to bite and nip when they were younger. Anyway, my baby, Escabar, bit me really hard on the second day............i decided then that i was going to make sure he did not become a bitter. In the last few weeks i have made it a point to spend time playing with him by himself, only giving him the opportunity to get a good grip a couple of times. When he starts to go for flesh i tell him no and then give him the back of my hand, which i know he can't bite. It is working well.
