The ferret may change coats twice a year. You can help it shed it's fur by using a very fine comb, and maybe go over with a brush. This prevents hairballs / intestinal blockage and is good for circulation.

What would cause hair loss of your two 1 yr old ferrets that are both pregnant?

All ferret have seasonal coat changes, and in unaltered ferrets it coincides with their reproduction cycles as they are seasonal breeders. Female ferrets seasonal coat change occurs five or six weeks after the beginning of estrus. Seasonal hair loss in unaltered ferrets are more pronounced as compared to altered ferrets. advice from other contributors: Well, if they are pregnant, they mated with male ferrets. They are not losing their hair. Female ferrets, when they are pregnant, will pull out their hair to make a nest for their babies. Good luck!

Do ferrets shed?

No, if they are on a proper diet (high protein, low carb/grain) ferrets do not really shed much. However, they will shed, probably a lot (depending on the climate where you live), in the spring and sometimes the fall. Ferrets grow winter coats and will shed them in the spring, but the shedding usually only lasts a week or two, then it's back to normal. Just keep them brushed during that period, and wash their bedding regularly. If your ferrets sheds and does not regrow fur, this indicates a serious medical problem and should be taken to a veterinarian for a checkup


Is it okay to give ferrets milk?

Ferrets are lactose intolerant and cannot digest any dairy products. Dairy products such as milk can cause loose stools or diarrhea in ferrets. Advise from another contributor: we have five ferrets and have done quite a bit of research over the years, and i read on a few occasions that ferrets are lactose intolerant and therefore it is not good to give them milk as it can give them diarrhea. we also learned this as we gave one a small amount of milk and he had diarrhea. poor little thing.

Do Marshall ferrets change their fur color in the winter?

Ferrets shed fur twice a year - spring and fall - so that the hair that grows back will suit the change. In the fall, your ferrets will grow back thicker fur for the winter and it may appear to be a different color. However, some ferrets that are in milder temperatures may have subtle notices in fur than ferrets in colder climates.
