Jasmine,
You have up till now been blessed with the ease of assimilation of new kids to your group.
All ferrets are individual ,and like people , don't always like or get along with some others.
You stated that you just got them, this may just be their way of working out their pecking
order-females can be ferocious with eachother, and males for that matter.
You could try switching around their bedding, so each can have the others scent, or using
a few dabs of a scented extract on their napes and tails.
Thing won't happen overnight, it may in fact take many months.
it has been 5 months since i brougt 2 ne kids into the biz here, and just this past week i
have foud the feisty little female curled up with my gib whom she formerly attacked.
The hob accepting him is another matter that I feel will even out over time.
You may also have to face the fact that they just plain won't tolerate eachother and run
separate groups accordingly as I've had to.
