Hello from NY!

[kitbearington]

Howdy fellow fuzzbutt lovers! New ferret fanatic here. I've been doing some pretty hardcore lurking for a couple months now and this site has been so incredibly helpful so thank you all for that. We have three young boys, all marshalls. Our first was purchased in early December and he stole my heart right away...picked up another about a month later, and one more 2 weeks after that (I've sworn this is my LIMIT haha). Our initial boy, Bear (Kit Bearington) is around 9 months maybe? He was adopted and returned to petco for whatever reason and since he was a bit bigger as they got new kits in of course he kept getting left behind because he wasn't a tiny baby anymore. The girl didn't know his exact age but said he was definitely still under a year and I've tried guesstimating his age based on teeth/behavor/growth.
Our other 2 boys were both wee infants that had been in the stores less than a week before I got them out of there so they're both about 4 and a half months.
I've been learning as I go and all 3 have been eating stella and chewy fdr for a couple of weeks, and this week I introduced Cornish game hen chunks mixed in which they've all taken to wonderfully.
I'm trying to learn how to better navigate the forum and upload some photos of our sweet babies. I'm on mobile so I downloaded tapatalk but still having issues for some reason 😞. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks again for all the great info!

Hello and welcome to the forum! I love the name Kit Bearington Poor little guy, being returned. I'm glad he ended up with you, and that he now has two little brothers. That's great that you're feeding raw and that you're having such an easy switch! As for the pictures, I know some members here use Tapatalk, hopefully they can help you out.

Welcome! I have found imgur worked best for me to upload pictures and then paste the code they gave me into this text box.

Can't wait to see your ferrets!!

Ok I don't have an account with Imgur but I will give it a go, I'm sure I can figure it out...eventually (not all that tech savvy).

Hi and welcome to the forum.

I use imgur too. When u download ur pics there, u will create a library.Click on the pic(from ur library)that you want to place here.This is what your screen will look like when you choose a pic. Hit BBCode---copy. Now come here and paste the code. When you click--- Post Quick Reply, the code will change to a picture.

Not to leave his buddies out,

This is him only two short months ago, he was so tiny and all bones but is already overtaking Bear in size and still growing like mad!

Finally, the baby of the babies, little Token 😊

Another gratuitous Bear pic. That face, he knows he's adorable
