For the biting issue you could go to
http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Lofts/1083/probintro.html
which I strongly recommend.
I don't know what is currently in any link FROM that and
recall that one of those used to call for hitting which makes
no sense at all. The things in the pages of this series itself
are very useful, though, and are recommended.
DEFINITELY call and ask the vet (not only about those ears), saying
this ferret is being trained to not bite. See if the vet is comfy
checking a ferret who may be biting due to a medical reason.
There could be other medical reasons why the ferret bites.
You will find that addressed at the website given above in
one of the sections.
There are some farms and certainly private breeders who do
not tattoo, so no tattoo does not signify that the ferrets are
whole. They could be Path Valley ferrets, for example.
Hopefully, this is just either a ferret with an easily addressed
painful problem, or one who will learn trust easily and fast
after a hard time before. Some take longer.
