ellir0305 9 Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 (edited) where is the best place to get a ferret box as i think it will be a lot better for the ferrets than the bags i have seen. i dont want anything fancy that will break , something cheap and functional that can be put tohard graft and survive and is ok to sit on too cheers atb rob oh yeah its for 2 hobs that live together all the time but one with a slider and two compartments could be handy Edited August 24, 2009 by ellir0305 Quote Link to post

JoeD 24 Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Couldn't you ask in the woodwork department at college or school, thats what I done and they made it free of charge. I am getting another double made up as they think it is good practise for the students. JoeD Quote Link to post
