Ah, the ol' "flat ferret" routine! Very common in ferrets. Some
attribute it to illness, and I suppose it can be if they do it a lot,
or it is something they've never done before and begin doing it
frequently, but generally speaking it means nothing other than
they're bored, or taking a small break from playing.
At 8 months of age, I'd say you have a normal ferret there just doing
what ferrets do.
