I do see your point, but just to clarify. The melatonin implants are just injected under the skin, like how the tagging is done for the
microchipping. The large bore needle used may require the skin to be closed, but other than that it is not necessary to subject the ferret to surgery.

Rather then pay for the implant and certainly put your pet under duress
during and after the surgery I don't understand why you don't spend about
$6.00 for 300 mg of Melatonin which are available in 3 mg capsules. We
administer 1 mg of Melatonin mixed with either Nutrical or Ferretone about 8
hours after sunrise. It is easy to divide the Melatonin into 1 mg piles and
rather then a terrible experience it becomes a daily treat plus it ensures
your pet will interact with you.
