I have bred the same line of ferrets for generations and tbh due to being busy/lazy the kits don't get that daily attention but I have found they just don't need it. I have never bred from nippy parents and the kits just seem to be naturally very easy to handle, the kits I bred this year haven't so much as nipped me once (going to get bitten now!). Would anyone agree that ferrets can genetically predisposed to be friendly and easy to handle? Or am I just lucky!!!
I responses to the original post, at four months a ferrets could definitely draw blood and lock on if it chose to.
Good lu
