Why don't you call them and ask? It would probably take less effort and be more accurate than posting here.

They usually go for about $125-$150, but i would highly recommed adopting one from a ferret rescue shelter. I got both of mine from one and I have never regretted it. There are so many out there that need loving homes. Most people who buy ferrets get tired of them or dont want to spend the money for their medical needs (which they have a lot of, and you should REALLY consider if youre willing to pay several hundreds of dollars on medical bills and surgerys that they require) I suggest doing a ton of research on them before you get one and rescuing one that has had a bad life and was surrendered to a shelter because the owners didnt want to deal with it anymore. It will be more rewarding than just buying one at petco.

around $80 or $90, but if you want one try to find a ferret rescue organization. A lot of people get ferrets and then don't like them and give them away. You might have to pay a little for their shots and stuff, but it'll still be cheaper than Petco

Anywere from $99-120 where I live. I do agree with others who have posted. Please try local shelters first. Many of the ferrets in pet stores are sick even though they may not at first look like it. My kids know that when we go to the pet store, they are not to touch the ferret because there is a chance they could bring home illnesses to our cutie Pumpkin. Also a good place to look is Petfinder.com. They not only have local shelters, but also people listing animals for adoption. Many times for the price you would pay for just the animal in the pet store, you can get the pet, cage and supplies. Hope this helps and good luck.

We got our little Taffy for $99.99. That was on sale. Usually they run $124.99. That is just for the ferret. Cages are usually a minumum of $69.99 and then you have a litter box $7.99. Might I also suggest that for bedding instead of using small animal bedding, that you use cloth baby diapers, cost about $12 for a dozen. It gives them something to dig in and cuddle in. Also make sure that you spend the extra money on the good food, otherwise cheap food can make them sick.

At my local Petco they sell for $130, but they are often on sale for $100.

Why not call Petco and ask them. That way you will get a correct answer.

I agree with chrisoaks.. Please contact your local rescue and see if they have ferrets for adoption. Often they have babies, and they will already be spayed and neutered and have their first shots. Check petfinder.com there are probably many in your area.

In Oklahoma, I just seen them on sale for $109.00, normally $129.00.
Better yet, look in your want ads. I often see them advertised cheaper and just tonight I see someone giving two away for free to a good home.
