    I have two ferrets in the same room as the majority of my snakes, I just make sure everything is locked real tight, and never let them play unsupervised. The snakes don't seem to be enticed by ferret smell (and neither am I for that matter, hahaha).

    You also need to be worried about the snakes.
    Ferrets are/can be predators. Some people have no problems with their ferrets being aggressive toward other species, but I also know people who have had ferrets get out and kill guinea pigs, chinchillas, snakes, rats, birds, etc.
    Just personally, I'd have the ferrets in a completely separate part of the house for that reason.

    as long as they arnt eating ferret then they shouldent recognize it as a food scent lol.

    i agree about ferrets being preditors id never let em pla in a snake room, they get into everything a nd could unplug or chew something and u might not notice till its to late. im silly tho and think if possible snakes should have there own locked room but hey thats just me :P
