I am more then willing to take in one older MF ex-breeder ferret, but ONLY after ferrets are legalized in CA or I happen to move out of this state to a more sane one..However, I'd advise people who are new to ferrets to start with a young ferret from a local breeder so you can learn how to deal with nipping, letterbox training, etc. Leave the old ex-breeders, who may or may not have been socialized, to the experienced ferret keepers. Or wait till they have filtered through a rescue group who can properly socialize them if they need it. [Posted in FML issue 2237]
