A ferret from a pet store will usually cost between $100 - $150 (US Dollars), where as they can cost up to $250. Whilst buying from a breeder is more expensive it does have some advantages such as being able to see the parents of the ferret you are getting and seeing what conditions the kit was kept in.
Most ferrets that come in are already altered and descented, but being a breeder I have babies for adoption that are unaltered/undescented. I dont advocate spaying or neutering these ferrets until they are sexually mature. My ferret prices range from $85 to $175 depending on the rarity of the color. Females should be spayed between ages of 4-6 months (mandatory) males 5-10 months (not as critical to neuter males but best for the males well-being by the time he is l year old.
