Somewhen Sukie wrote about harleckinian colored ferrets which have only one half (the left or the right) of their masks and most of them die in the first...
No idea. I'd expect variation but that is a guess. The readings I've done on the non-bilateral head pigmentation being associated with far higher aortic...
Do any of you recall who the person was in the Netherlands who ran into a young kit with what may possibly be polydactyly (extra digits) with the portions...

THANK YOU so much! Yes, i think so , and will forward this to her right now since I now know who to send it, too. I think she will be amazed at the first...
You're welcome! I just noticed she uses another e-mail address to post on the FML so I'm not sure the one I gave here will work ... That picture of the human...
I had a different one for her in my address book so I used both. Sure hope that whoever bred this one stops breeding the line, but the ferret was a found one,...
I have heard that Steph saw the kit and she is not sure but she thinks there may be no bones in those extensions, in which case it may instead be something...
... Is ... Hi, Sukie, sorry for delay. Most of the ferrets, breeded by Ferrets Amateurs Assosiations, I am seeing are completely bilateral colored. Individual...
Hello! I'm from Germany, so please excuse my bad english. A friend of mine had a 15 month old blackselv ferret female which had been put to sleep last week. It...
Hi.....I also had a ferret with lymphoma, actually 2 in the same group. The first one I tried to treat but eventually I had her euthanized. The second one was...

From information I've seen in another group, it appears that lymphoma in young ferrets (less than 2 years old) is fairly common in German black selfs. Since...
That's correct, German black selfs are clearly prone to developing lymphoma. I've heard of lots of cases by now, and they usually get sick at a very young age....
Hello, I have a question for you: Which are the crossing of colors or marks to be avoided absolutely to have any problem ? (deafness...) Colors like black...
One of my servers was having trouble with the out-going server the last two days, but they know now so let's see if they have it up and running. (Turned out...
I have never heard of anyone looking at this in ferrets. It might be worth people thinking about since this might be an interesting perspective and could be...
Ah, I am sorry. Yes, it would be good for you to ask for health records and longevity records of all of the ferrets in this ferret family, and to have any ...
Hi! Did anybody answer this question by now? Harlekin is what the germans say for ferrets with white feet and a white spot on their throat. They exist in every...
Hi Tina! Do you have a picture of a 'harlekin' patterned ferret? If so, feel free to upload it here...You can insert the image into the message for those of...

Whoops!! I said Panda....brain dead today...I meant MITT! Kriszti is correct... ... BTW...don't apologize for your English, it is 200% better than my German! ...
Thank you for your great question with breeding black selfs in Germany in relation to Lymphoma/lymphosarcoma. It's fascinating to me. I know that a few of us...
Actually, these ferrets tend to be marvelous and healthy when these markings have clean margins (no spotting, no uneven margins, no partial bibs or partial...
Pandas have white heads, though, and that is different from just the bib and mitts/socks. I bring this up because before there were a lot of pandas and blazes ...
These markings are associated with neural crest medical disorders ONLY when there are also neural crest markings involved. This is the reason that I greatly...
Yes, I think I see what you are saying. You are saying that the line might have the increased vulnerability to lymphoma and the markings due to separate...
Hi! Here in the Netherlands we use the name Harlekine for the uneven, spotty white markings, associated with neural crest disorders. The mitted ferrets with...
... Oh, I LIKE that the distinction is made (at least by some) since there are two entirely separate genetic things involved, and their impacts are so...
