Here's Lestat. He's a sleepy face. Lestat dwarfs the girls... Here's "Friar" Louie. You can kinda see the really weird bald spot he has. It's /just/ the top of his head. The vet thinks that he might have scraped all the fur off in boredom, and done damage to the hair follicles. I'm interested in seeing what happens to the spot as they transition to raw. "Lemme go! I wanna esplore!"

they're cuties. I will be really interested to see what they look like when you get them on a better diet. Their coat appears coarse in the photos, is it or is just the way it's laying? ciao

They're coats are very thick and coarse. Especially Lestat. It seems like half his weight is just fur!

LOVE the names! Their fur looks pretty dull, dingy yellow too (could just be the lighting though), I bet that will clear up on the new diet. They are going to be some Gorgeous beasts after the raw diet kicks in! I mean, they are already handsome, large boys now, so I can't wait to see when they are all sleek and muscled and shiny from real meats!

I'm super excited to see what the raw diet does for them. Especially Lestat, with his health issues. Both of them are so much bigger than the girls, but they both have a lot of squishy fat so I'm hoping that the raw diet slims them down and tones them a bit. Neither of them know what to do with all the space they have now. They used to be confined to their cage more often than not, and now they have a whole apartment to war dance around!

Such handsome boys ! Out of curiosity, is Louie adrenal? I understand some male ferrets get a sort of "male pattern baldness" on their heads with it.

From what their previous owners told us, he was tested for adrenal and he was fine. It's just this bald spot on his head. Perfectly smooth skin. Kinda wrinkly.
