QuestionHi I was wondering how would a single ferret do? Do you need to get multiple ferrets or a single ferret that you spend time with a lot will do fine on its own?
Also in your opinion whats the best ferret food?
Thank you.
AnswerA single ferret is perfectly fine as long as you give him adequate attention and play time. If you are home a lot and are available to play with him a lot it's ok. But I have found that having two or more ferrets is very fun, and they keep each other company if I am busy or at work. A second ferret is not very much additional maintenance once you already have one ferret, so it's completely up to you. I personally use 8 in 1 Ultimate Ferret, since it has a higher protein content. Totally Ferret and Marshall's are also decent choices. (DO NOT ever use Kaytee brand foods, they contain harmful ingredients for your ferret.)
