I do ferret racing on a fairly regular basis as a fund raiser for my rescue work. Quote Link to post
Flying Ferrets 0 Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) we had a race like that once in a danish ferret show. I think nobody won as none of the ferrets would come out of the pipes when they had gone in, a little to funny with the owners calling and calling and in the end had to drag the ferrets out I hope your ferrets will get the idea a little better! sry for off topic.

I have a water obstacle included in my racing setup - it really adds more fun and keeps the audience entertained with some the antics the ferrets get up to when they reach the water - it's only about 1/2" deep...
