Regarding domesticated ferrets, depending on the health of the ferret they usually can live anywhere between 6 to 12 years. However, they tend to have numerous medical problems which can reduce the number years significantly. Since there has not been as much research on ferrets as there has been on dogs, cats and other domesticated animals, some veterinarians may have a difficult time diagnosing certain conditions with ferrets. Therefore it's important to see a veterinarian that specializes in exotic pets like ferrets in order to keep a healthy and long living ferret.
Ferrets reach adult size and weight at about 4 to 6 months, Sexual maturity age is at eight to twelve months. First possible mating is at six months or the first spring following birth
A female ferret becomes fully sexually mature around the age of six months old and can have kits from then on. You will be able to tell when she is in heat as her vulva will be swollen.
Ferrets go through puberty between 6-8 months of age. After this they are sexually mature.
Ferrets are considered "adults" when they are 6 months old. They would be about 24 human years old at ferret age 2.
