She's got a few more years left in her yet it probably wont happen intill she's about 26 soo no need to worry yet!!! but the problem is why they keep biting is becuase there babies you need to train um just like puppies and it's hard back braking work you need to potty train them teach um not to bite and all sorts yet unless your an experienced ferret kepper and like you said you got your daughters when it was about 1 yr old it would of been previusley already trained i would go to your local rescue home or look in your local newspaper as i would go to the animal rescue as they give you amazing advice and i'll pick u the perfect little ferret friend you should have two or moreferrets anyway as they're extremely social animal and can get depressed with out a friend and i suppose your daughter can't be there 24/7 for it as i expect shes got college/university to attend to so another ferret would be a great addition to your family x.good luck!!!.x

you might look for a ferret rescue in your area. i know what your talking about though about the biting. to me the ones in the pets stores look older. i got mine when they were little. i know they live longer- thought it was like about 8-10 yrs but you may want to research that to make sure. i know mine never bit me and were the sweetest things that i got when they were young and were both males. the very first one i got was from a rescue and he was older when i got him (but also male) and he was a lover too. i think they are normally fixed anyways when you buy them, so if you can find a young male that is sweet it should be ok, unless you just really want a female. you might look around other stores- maybe even next town if you have to for younger one.

If my name was Cupcake I would kill myself.
