Here's some info & pics regarding a ferret box.

The use of 3mm ply for the bowed back section is popular.

The box picured below would easily hold 4 Ferrets & although the twin lids make it easier to contain them.

A single lid is another option.

 

 

Double Ferret Bow Backed Carry Box

This medium double ferret box is manufactured from 12mm ply with all joints glued and nailed for extra rigidity not only does this give the box strength but also allows the box to be light enough to be carried with ease.

 

Approx dimensions externally W: 15 inch D: 9 inch H: 7.5 inch

 

 

Here's a standard box made by a guy on this forum

 

 

 

Should be able to work one out from this hopefully.

 

Lol having said all that..

I opted for a klik of my mouse and got one off Ebay..

Postal strike here for a few days has seen a delay in it arriving

 

 

Cheers,
