No ferrets are not blind. When a baby ferret (also known as a kit) is born, it has a thin layer over it's eyes meaning that it cannot see. This layer eventually goes away and the kit will begin opening its eyes by the age of 5 weeks old and will be able to see.

Though they are not colorblind ferrets see colors differently to us. Ferrets see the world in grey but can also make out certain shades of red and blue.
