Bandit Is The Only Ferret I Have And He'll Be 14 Weeks On Sunday. Hes Eats Ferret Food But I Guess That Hes Like A puppy When He Smells Treats Or People Food. And Hes Not Nippy At All. He More Kissy Than Anything Except For When It Comes To Treats Lol

> no, kits are nippy/bitey and mouthy and can be a handful because they are also balls of energy and learning. Over food they may dig in with enthusiasm, and eat a lot. If there are a lot of ferrets with one bowl there may be some pushing others out of the way, like in petstore scenarios. If you just got the kit, may be hungry and picked up some habits from fighting for food at the petstore?
