If they are not cleaned weekly they will, but if you didn't flush your toilet for a week it would smell bad too. ha ha. But mice do have a lower odor than some rodents such as ferrets.
If your ferrets are not getting along with each other, keep them separated, exchange some bedding that they slept on with each other, to get them to smell the same. Or if you are keeping in separate cages, place the cages close together to let them used to each other, have time out of the cage separately (keep one in cage, let the other out). After a period of time, let them out together and supervise them. Some ferrets will fight and eventually will work it out as long as no blood is drawn.
