Malt 379 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 It should pass mate, it's probably play biting. They do tend to do it less as they get older. Quote Link to post

IMOA i would not give them milk the dog also but if you do water it down 50/50 and only goats milk. been told cows milk no good for their digestive system . keep hunting cjw Quote Link to post
victor 10 Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 my ferrets havent bitten me at all, only cus ive seen them grow up (mates breed them) and my dog grew up with them, so before long you wont notice them not biting you untill you think about it Quote Link to post
