Domestic ferrets have an average length of approximately 20 inches (51 cm) including a 5 inch (13 cm) tail, weigh about 2-4 pounds (1 kg). Male Ferret: average 3 - 5 lbs, 17 - 24 length (1.35 - 2.25 kg and 43 - 61 cm). Female Ferret: average 1 - 3 lbs, 12 - 16 length (0.45 - 1.35 kg and 30 - 40 cm). Domestic ferrets reach their adult size at one year old. A typical female domestic ferret weighs from 0.3 to 1.1 kg. Male domestic ferrets can weigh from 0.9 to 2.7 kg, neutered males often weigh less than unaltered males. Domestic ferrets have a long and slender body. Females are typically 33 to 35.5 cm long and males are 38 to 40.6 cm long.
Ferrets who were âlate altersâ (neutered between 8â12 months of age) will be bigger than, say, Marshall Farms ferrets but will lose some muscle mass after neutering. Most good breeders these days have started feeding at least some raw/whole prey. Ferrets fed this diet do seem to be bigger and healthier. In Europe, they have apparently been feeding like this all along. So if you want to find a really large ferret, youâd need to talk to a reputable breeder who uses European blood lines (Iâm not sure, but I think Swedish are the bigger ones), who has a male that has not been neutered.
