just make it big with a sheltered compartment for sleeping. as long as theres plenty room and maybe a hamock and pipes to play in you wont go far wrong. have a look at other peoples and copy theres or go similar..

If you put a hutch inside a decent sized run they will play for hours through some pipes & other bits & peices in there

Have a go with the search function, there were some good designs with pictures last time this topic came up, and if you get stuck, just post on here

Mine 6 foot x 4 foot x two foot high. 1 inch wire gauge mesh pre cut to size. all I had to do was support it together with cable ties. very simple but very spacious and couldnt be simpler to construct. also cheep.

cheers matey, but i need to make one for outside, as my ferret will be living at my caravan for half the year when we go up there, i also need to have a outside one at home, as at the current time there is no room for the ferret in the shed/garage

all you would have to do is cover the top of the cage with a tarapaulin.

Countryboyo my ferrets get those real hard rubber dog balls and thick rope and dog rings also they like things like gardening gloves and wellies to crawl around in, I am also thinking of putting in a cat scratching post to climb up and scratch the claws down.

Get it big and plenty of stuff in there they can do. Get a box and fill with compost and shit and let them dig in there. My brothers ferrets love playing with tennis balls he lets them run about in a trailer and throws in the ball and they all go for it lol its funny. I will post some pics for you now mate
