Well, you don't give much detail, so it's difficult to say.
I have a rescue ferret that snores. She's been part of our family for
almost 3 years now, and has always made a snoring noise while sleeping.
She's probably somewhere between 4 - 5 years old, and we have never felt
that this was any kind of serious medical problem. She's extremely healthy,
and has had no other medical problems!
However, if a ferret suddenly started snoring on a regular basis, but
previously hadn't done so, then I would certainly have them checked out by a
vet, as that might indicate some kind of problem.
