No problem Millet, I understood where you were coming from ...I had a biter once (over night) that a local keeper found on his estate, must have been ferel for some time ...Was the only time I've been bitten good and proper by a ferret, had a few quick nips and quick releases from startled ferrets but pleased to say never had a vicious ferret.
