The sheds are when seasons are changing: Fall and Spring, so this is not a
standard shed
time, but if the LIGHTING you use has changed that could bring on a shed,
though that
would be a slower and more normal shed like a seasonal shed.


**I have seen seasonal sheds that occurred within a matter of a few days,
where the ferret really looked as if it was standing in a cloud of shed fur at
all times! (Like Pigpen on Charlie Brown). Those have mostly occurred when
there has been some change in housing, but not always.

As long as no skin is showing in bald patches, I don't get too worked up
about this type of shed, although you will want to give hairball remedy
religiously.**
