I have 4 Marshall Farms ferrets. They are all happy, excitable, crazy boys like a ferret should be, but they are not very sweet. My 5th, was recently put to sleep, but he was only a few months old and already the sweetest little thing and very calm and cuddly. I would love to own another just like him someday. Therefore, I'd like to know for future reference which route to go in purchasing a new ferret.I've heard Path Valley ferrets are extremely hyper and nippy. Marshall Farms is questionable on their socialization, and therefore, a lot of their ferrets have biting problems or don't get along with other ferrets. I haven't heard much about Triple F Farms ferrets, but what I have heard hasn't been anything negative. Does anyone have feedback on these three companies? I want to ensure I get another sweetheart who cuddles, and not a devil in disguise!
